Wayne Dalton garage door remote

Programming synchronizes your 3316 to its numerous entry devices.

Chiefly known for producing garage doors, Wayne Dalton once offered a lineup of garage door openers. The 3316 model, part of the Quantum series, is a 1/2-horsepower residential garage opener, manufactured in 2003. It features a double-angle trolley rail assembly and high-efficiency motor in addition to a wireless transmitter remote and a wall station. Because Wayne Dalton no longer produces garage door openers, you may find yourself at a loss when it comes to programming the unit to take advantage of this functionality. Fortunately, advice from the manufacturer provides insight on the programming process.

Pair Your Wall Station

Before you can sync your Quantum 3316 to its wall station, you must change the station's security code. To do so, hold the station's light button for about 10 seconds until its LED light begins to blink, then release the button. Hold the light button again for another five seconds until the LED light blinks again. Release the button and the LED will blink on and off three times, indicating the end of the process. You can now program the wall station to sync with the opener. Press the program switch on the motor, which causes the red program status light and overhead lamp to turn on for one minute. While those lights are on, press the light button on the wall station and the program status light will blink on and off three times. Press the light button once more to complete this operation.

Program Your Transmitter

Like the opener and wall station, you must first change your Quantum 3316's security code before programming its transmitter remote. Hold the large central button on the transmitter for about 10 seconds until its LED light blinks rapidly, then release the button and hold it again for about five seconds until the light blinks once again. Release the button and the LED will blink on and off three times to indicate a successful security code change. To pair the transmitter to the motor, press the switch on the motor, causing the red program status and overhead lights to activate. As these lights shine, which they will do for one minute, press the button on the transmitter that you wish to use to open the garage door. When the program status light blinks on and off three times, press the same transmitter button again to confirm your choice. You can now use the transmitter to open the door.

Queue Up Keyless Entry

If your Quantum 3316 includes keyless entry, you'll have to program this feature before use. Start the process by pressing the program switch on the motor. While the program status light and overhead light remain lit, enter the five-digit personal identification number of your choice on the keyless entry station's numeric keypad - you'll have a one-minute window to do so while the lights are on. The program status light will blink on and off three times when it has successfully learned this code. Wait five seconds, then press any button on the keypad - if successfully programmed, the garage door will move to the up position. If you make a mistake when entering your desired PIN, hold the 7/8 and 9/10 buttons down for two seconds to reset the keyless entry and restart the programming process from the beginning.

Track Down Wayne Dalton

If you have trouble programming your 3000-series opener or run into other operational issues, contact the Wayne Dalton company for further assistance. As Wayne Dalton no longer manufactures garage door openers, the company hosts a special website dedicated to customer service for previous models, accessible at GDOSupport.com. At the site, you can submit a query via an online email form. Because the 3316's warranty extends for up to 10 years, Wayne Dalton no longer covers the cost of service or repairs.
