For use with residential garage door openers manufactured after January 1, 1993. Make sure your garage door opener has a working light bulb because it is a programming indicator.

Overview of the device

Video Keypad Setup

Charge the Battery

Detach the back cover of your Video Keypad, remove the battery by pushing the battery's bottom tab up, and remove the protective cover.
Charge the Battery - Step 1

Plug the battery into a USB power source using the cable provided. Please fully charge the battery before setting up your Video Keypad. The battery is fully charged and ready to use when the LED light on the battery changes from red to green.
Charge the Battery - Step 2

NOTE: Charging your battery can take up to 10 hours.

Re-insert the battery and attach the back cover. The cover will click into place once secure. Your device will begin to power on and the Video Keypad's LED indicator will cycle through multiple colors during the reboot sequence before flashing blue.

Download the myQ App

The myQ mobile app will guide you through setting up your Video Keypad. With your smart phone, download myQ by either:

  • Scanning the second QR code on the packaging insert
  • Searching for "myQ" in your phone's app store
  • Visiting myQ.com/app on your phone's browser

Have your Wi-Fi password available before proceeding.

Get Connected

To connect your Video Keypad, stay near your installed garage door opener. Do not mount the keypad until a later step.

In the myQ app, select theicon from the home screen and select Device.

When prompted, select Video Solution, followed by Video Keypad, and follow the in-app instructions.

Once you've completed setup within the app, let's verify your keypad is connected to your opener and able to operate the garage door:

  • Enter the PIN you created on your keypad
  • Press the Home Button
  • Confirm the door has moved

Install Mounting Bracket

Select a location to mount your Video Keypad at a minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m) out of reach of small children. When selecting a mounting location, consider the visual you want the camera to capture and the convenience of its placement:

  • Are there any other entry points to my home I want to view?
  • Is there a direction down the street I would prefer to see?
  • Which side of my home is more likely to have activity I'd like to view?
  • Is the keypad installed in a location that is convenient to access?

Begin by using the included mounting bracket as a template to mark the position of the bracket's mounting holes with a pen or pencil. Please note, the location of the holes may differ from your existing keypad (if applicable).

If installing your Video Keypad on stucco, brick, or concrete:

Drill holes in your wall with a 1/4" masonry bit, then insert the included wall anchors by pushing them into place or lightly tapping with a hammer. If installing on wood or vinyl siding the wall anchors are not needed, and you can skip this step.

Position the mounting bracket so that the Video Keypad is at your preferred orientation. If using the 20° mount, the bracket can be flipped to adjust the angle depending on your surroundings. We recommend positioning the keypad to be angled toward your driveway.

Using the two Mounting Screws and a Phillips screwdriver, secure the bracket by driving the screws into the wall (or anchors, if installed) through the mounting holes until flush with the bracket.

Secure to Mounting Bracket

If using the 20° or 0° mounting bracket, slide the top of the Video Keypad into the ridges at the top of the bracket, then push the bottom of the keypad into the bracket.

If using the swivel mount, push the Video Keypad directly into the mount to snap it into place with the ridges on the sides of the bracket.
Secure to Mounting Bracket - Step 1

When removing the Video Keypad from any of the mounting brackets, firmly grasp the device from the bottom, then pull out and up.

Once your Video Keypad is attached to the mounting bracket, use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten the included short security screw into the bottom of your device to secure it into place.
Secure to Mounting Bracket - Step 2

DO NOT USE any screw other than the included short security screw to secure your Video Keypad. Using the wrong screw could damage the device.

  • To open your garage, enter an assigned PIN and then press the Home Button
  • For one-touch close when your garage is open, press the Home Button
