DESCRIPTION
Linear’s MegaCode® series of digital transmitters are wireless
radio controls designed for use with MegaCode format receivers.
The MegaCode radio format provides unparalleled security. Each
transmitter is pre-set at the factory to one of over 1,000,000
codes.
The ACT-31B is a single-button transmitter that sends a unique
code to a single device. The ACT-34B is a four-button miniature
transmitter that sends a unique code for each button. Typically, one
button is used to operate a community access gate, another button
can activate an individual’s garage door, the other two buttons can
activate additional automatic doors or other devices.
The transmitters are powered by two Type 2016 “coin cell” batteries.
A 2-part key ring is supplied with the units.
PROGRAM TRANSMITTER INTO RECEIVER
Refer to the instructions provided with the receiver to program
the transmitter into the receivers memory. With the receiver in
a programming mode, press the desired transmitter button to
program that button into the receiver.
Linears receivers that accept Block Coding can be programmed
to accept a user defi ned block of ID codes. These transmitters are
block coded. Each block of transmitters is labeled with starting and
ending block code numbers, along with an optional facility code
number. Refer to the instructions for details on how to program the
block and facility code numbers.

IMPORTANT !!!
Linear radio controls provide a reliable communications link and ll an important need in portable wireless
signaling. However, there are some limitations which must be observed.
For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and Regulations as Part 15
devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.
A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by radio
signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.
Changes or modi cations to the device may void FCC compliance.
Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected interference or
fault.
A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale distributor
or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.
This device complies with FCC Part 15 and Industry Canada Rules and Regulations. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
