If so, activate the loop input or button on the transmitter once again. If a match is not obtained, press the [#] key twice and then enter (or transmit) the correct serial number.

Press [∗] to continue

If the serial number transmitted matches the serial number entered, the keypad will beep 3 times and a summary display will appear, showing that zone's programming. An “s” indicates that a transmitter’s serial number has been enrolled.
