Oh man this is so helpful! I have a 50 year old Lynx 455 Doorman garage door opener that came with the house that I just bought and it has this radio receiver attached to it. There aren’t any remotes though, but my car has the capacity to open and close the garage door. I’m hoping I can program it through there?

[@Garagedoorzone]

You're most likely going to need a remote that is programmed to the receiver in order to program the Homelink buttons in your vehicle. If you need a Linear Delta-3 remote you can purchase them here: www.garagedoorzone.com/DT-1-Linear-Delta-3-1-button-Garage-Door-Opener-Remote-310Mhz_p_28.html

@ thank you!

[@gregorysax38]

great video! is there a way to program the Linear Delta 3 to your vehicle garage door buttons?

[@Garagedoorzone]

Thanks for watching! If your vehicle is equipped with Homelink then you'll be able to use your remote to program the button in your vehicle. Try following these instructions: For first time training, press and hold the two outer HomeLink® buttons, releasing only when the HomeLink indicator light begins to flash after 20 seconds. (Do not perform this step when training the additional HomeLink buttons.) Position the hand-held transmitter 1-3 inches away from the HomeLink surface (usually located on your visor, overhead console, or mirror), keeping the HomeLink indicator light in view. Using both hands, simultaneously press and hold both the desired HomeLink button and hand held transmitter button. DO NOT release until the HomeLink indicator light flashes slowly and then rapidly. When the indicator light flashes rapidly, both buttons may be released. (The rapid flashing indicates successful training.)

@@Garagedoorzoneis there a way to do a home link program if I don’t have a remote but my old opener does have the Delta3 radio receiver?

[@evdie4]

I bought a liftmaster wireless control panel button to control the door and light but it is programmed by clicking the learn button on the garage door opener. I guess there is NO learn button on the old Raynor openers?

[@Garagedoorzone]

If you have one of these Linear Delta-3 radio receivers attached to your operator then the Liftmaster wireless control panel is not going to be compatible with it.

[@trevorc2921]

Do you have any tips to increase the strength of signal/range of my Linear garage remote and Linear Delta 3 Receiver?

[@Garagedoorzone]

The first thing I'd recommend (if you haven't done so already) is to put a fresh battery in your remote. Next, double check that the wire antenna coming out of the radio receiver is hanging straight down towards the floor. And lastly, if your operator has an LED or CFL low energy light bulb, remove it and replace it with an incandescent light bulb (the low energy bulbs can cause interference). - Brian

Is this compatible with the chamberlain klik3u

[@Garagedoorzone]

According to the instructions for the remote, yes it's compatible. content.interlinebrands.com/product/document/10002/2492253_UseCare.pdf

I wish there was an app I could use with our old Linear Delta 3's. I have 3 doors in my shop and it would be nice to just use my phone.

[@Garagedoorzone]

Linear doesn't have a product but you could check out Amazon. There are a number of aftermarket garage door opener wi-fi connection products available. You might want to check out the eKyro Smart Garage Door WiFi Controller amzn.to/3z8CyLr We haven't tested or used this item but it has gotten a lot of positive reviews. Full disclosure, we're also an Amazon Associate so if you use our link we may earn a small commission. There are also a number of other products that may work the same or better. We have plans to test some of these items in the near future and will post a video with the results. Best of luck.

Can I program the garage door remote in the visor of my Ford truck to this receiver?

[@Garagedoorzone]

Possibly. If you have a working Linear remote then you may be able to copy the signal from that remote to your vehicle. If your vehicle is equipped with Homelink then you can try the following programming method: For first time training, press and hold the two outer HomeLink® buttons in the vehicle, releasing only when the HomeLink indicator light begins to flash after 20 seconds. (Do not perform this step when training the additional HomeLink buttons.) Position the hand-held transmitter 1-3 inches away from the HomeLink surface (usually located on your visor, overhead console, or mirror), keeping the HomeLink indicator light in view. Using both hands, simultaneously press and hold both the desired HomeLink button and hand held transmitter button. DO NOT release until the HomeLink indicator light flashes slowly and then rapidly. When the indicator light flashes rapidly, both buttons may be released. (The rapid flashing indicates successful training.)

@@Garagedoorzone thanks for the info. I just tried it, but unfortunately it didn’t work. Following the steps, when at the part of holding both the old remote beside the home link and simultaneously holding the desired button, that button stays red until it goes out completely. It doesn’t flash at all. The garage door opens and closes repeatedly, I’m guessing from also holding the button in on the original remote. The door actually opens and closes partially at first, then goes into full cycles.

[@Garagedoorzone]

@@robkenny1529 You may want to try and put a fresh battery in the remote & try programming again. If that doesn't work then reach out to Homelink by contacting them here: www.homelink.com/contact

[@testtube173]

Is there a method to programming up down and stop to a 1 button remote?

[@Garagedoorzone]

You would need a 3-channel radio receiver and remote. This is only a 1-channel so no that would be possible.

[@davidconly797]

Is there a way to program the Delta 3 to a LiftMaster 890MAX remote?

[@Garagedoorzone]

No. The Delta-3 is compatible with Linear Delta-3 receivers and the 890MAX is compatible with Chamberlain/Liftmaster openers & radio receivers. They are not compatible with each other.

[@TheBudmen]

I just bought an 894LT lift master remote with cloning. Will that work? I bought a universal remote which was able to clone the code but will not work with my lift master 2.0. I bought the 894LT in hopes it can clone the delta and I’m sure it will work with my lift masters.

[@dabeachman]

hey any chance I can program an overhead door wireless keypad with the delta 3?

[@Garagedoorzone]

I'm not sure I understand the question. Are you asking if you can program an Overhead brand keypad to a Linear Delta-3 receiver? If that's the case then the answer is no. Different manufacturers use different programming and frequencies for their radio equipment.

[@dabeachman]

@@Garagedoorzone that was exactly the question, is their a manufacturer that can remote keypad to the delta 3?

[@Garagedoorzone]

The Linear DTKP Keypad is compatible with the Linear Delta-3 receiver and can be found here: www.garagedoorzone.com/DTKP-Linear-Delta-3-Wireless-Keypad_p_69.html If you want to see how it's programmed then watch this video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKiYZn-XbJaGgrs

[@siobhan3685]

I put new batteries in my remote and now mine won’t work. I don’t know if I need to reprogram nor do I know how to! Please help

[@Garagedoorzone]

If you have a Linear Delta-3 Radio Receiver and Remote then watch this video to see the steps to take in order to program the remote. If you replaced the battery in the remote and the remote stopped working then you most likely moved one of the programming switches by mistake.

[@siobhan3685]

Thanks for responding I think the receiver broke. So I purchased another one same make and model and now my issue is it will only open door a few inches and stop not sure what I did wrong. Do you have any advice

[@Garagedoorzone]

Can you lift the door manually when it's disconnected from the operator? What you describe typically isn't a remote or receiver issue. There could be an issue with the garage door itself or possibly the limit switches in the garage door operator.

[@siobhan3685]

Yes I can manually lift the door I can even use the button on the wall and it opens and closes no problems the controller won’t work.

[@siobhan3685]

Where would the limit switch be located?

[@danielforbes3311]

Mine wont work do i do anything with white cord

[@Garagedoorzone]

The white antenna wire coming out of the receiver? No, it should just be hanging down. Are you trying to program new radio equipment added to the operator or is it existing radio equipment? - Brian

[@1969cornhusker]

The manual and moulding are incorrect on wire placing on the receiver terminals. They are backwards from what actually needs to be wired.
