I purchased the photographed for three dollars hoping that it would work as an additional remote for my garage door opener.
It is rated at 12VDC, but the two ports on the back of my garage door are 4.75 volts. These are the two ports that one would use to hook up a door bell or wall opener to open and close the door without a remote. In other words, when the two terminals are connected the garage door opener is triggered.
It looks like I can purchase a 5VDC configuration similar to the one photographed. Before I purchase it I have some questions:
Will this work on a garage door opener that puts out 4.75 VDC from two terminals?
If so,
Do I hook up the two voltage input terminals to the two input terminals on my garage door opener ( the two garage door terminals that when connected together open or close the opener.
Or, do I have to use the other three terminals on the receiver in some combination?
The labels for the other three are: NC COM NO.
I will post some photographs, could not figure how to do so from my phone
