Wall button light flashes and remotes won't work. I reset the opener by pressing the program button on the opener the wall button stays on steady without flashing and the remotes work. The problem is that this is an intermitant problem. When I attaempt to re-program the remotes the green button on the opener flashes repeatedly instead of once per the instructions. Any ideas?

    That's not a particularly helpful answer. What does one look for if the logic boar is failing? Is it owner repairable? Please provide more information. Thank you.

PROGRAM NEW DIGIDOOR 3 WALL CONSOLE

To program a new wall console for your Digidoor 3 to the receiver, follow these steps:
  1. Connect the receiver to a power source and turn it on.
  2. Press and hold the "Learn" button on the receiver for 5 seconds. The LED light on the receiver should start flashing.
  3. Press and hold the "Learn" button on the new wall console for 5 seconds. The LED light on the wall console should start flashing.
  4. Release the "Learn" buttons on both the receiver and the wall console.
  5. Press and hold the "Open" button on the wall console for 5 seconds. The LED light on the wall console should stop flashing and the LED light on the receiver should start flashing.
  6. Release the "Open" button on the wall console. The LED light on the receiver should stop flashing, indicating that the wall console has been successfully programmed to the receiver.
If the above steps do not work, you may need to reset the receiver and try the programming process again.

If you are still having trouble, you may want to contact the manufacturer for further assistance.

I have the door bell style wall button-how do I unlock the unit so the remotes can be synched? I have pressed green button on back of unit with remotes but they won't operate the door.

You don't unlock anything to program the opener for the remotes. If everything is working you do this:

Press and hold the button down on the remote while you press and immediately release the smart/learn button. Do this for each remote.

REMOTE CONTROLS WILL NOT WORK-WALL BUTTON FLASHING RAPIDLY

Does your wall switch have a lock feature? By pressing the lock button, the remote control is disabled. A flashing light indicates this feature has been activated.

To deactivate, press and hold the lock button for 2 seconds. The flashing should stop and your remote should work again.

The remote opener reset button goes off and will not work

The green button is not a reset it is the program button.

If you hold the button down for about 20 seconds it will erase all codes. Then, press and release the button - press and hold the button on your remote for about 10 seconds. the next time you press it it should activate the door. Repeat the 2nd step for all additional remotes.

The lock button on the wall control locks out all radio signals for vacations etc.

If the lock has been activated the green led in the wall control will flash - when the lock is deactivated the led stays solid green.

Hope this helps
