Programming HomeLink® for Canadian customers and gate openers
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit) after several seconds of transmission – which may not be long enough for HomeLink® to pick up the signal during training. Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to “timeout” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties training a gate operator or garage door opener by using the “Training” procedures, replace “Programming HomeLink®” Step 2 with the following:
NOTE:
When programming a garage door opener, etc., unplug the device during the “cycling” process to prevent possible damage to the garage door opener components.
1. See “Programing HomeLink®”step 1 earlier
in this section.
2. Using both hands, simultaneously press and
hold the desired HomeLink® button and the
hand-held transmitter button. During training,
your hand-held transmitter may automatically
stop transmitting. Continue to
press and hold the desired HomeLink® button
while you press and re-press (“cycle”)
your hand-held transmitter every two seconds
until the frequency signal has been
learned. The HomeLink® indicator light will
flash slowly and then rapidly after several
seconds upon successful training. DO NOT
release until the HomeLink® indicator light
flashes slowly and then rapidly. When the
indicator light flashes rapidly, both buttons
may be released. The rapid flashing indicates
successful training.
Proceed with “Programming HomeLink®” step 3 to complete.
If the device was unplugged during the programming procedure, remember to plug it back in when programming is completed.
