This remote does come w/instructions, however, it was a bit of a headache to program. We ended up, after hours of trying to program it, using the sticker found on our control panel that had functions listed to program the remote. To our surprise it actually worked! Outside of that so far has been a great product!
Purchased 2 since i lost one already i figured i should have a spare. They both synced to my control board and programmed in minutes. The directions for this analog system isnt readily available anymore since LCI has moved into digital control but i was able to find them on google. I did have to contact LCI for support and their chat function was fast and got me sorted quickly. Im sure they could have provided the directions as well if i hadnt already found them.
