Os' VX: The Arrivaling

[TheGanzman]

That's not right - the option button does not work with the alarm system. It was originally supposed to work with an optional receiver you connect to your garage door opener wires in order to open your garage door (but it is no longer available, I believe). It needs the DC voltage from the garage door opener wires in order to power itself and receive the signal from the remote.

Alittle off topic, but I believe this option IS still available; in fact, the "system" still shows 9 (now 8!) available at ~$105.00. I just ordered one from our friend Merlin; not so much for my garage door, but for the gate to our gated community - the "opener" that they give ya' for THAT dates to 1985 - it's the size of a large paperback! I'll let everyone know how that install goes...

On edit - I just read previous threads about this; apparently the "unit" they ship you installs in your garage, not in your VX - guess I'll be replacing my garage door opener and NOT my gate opener after all...
