! Gate Operator / Canadian Pro-
gramming
S03AP070410
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter remote signals to “time-out”
(or quit) after several seconds of transmis-
sion, which may not be long enough for
HomeLink to pick up the signal during
programming. Similar to this Canadian
law, some U.S. gate operators are de-
signed to “time-out” in the same manner.
The indicator LED on the hand-held
remote will go off when the device times
out, indicating that it has finished transmit-
ting. the device during the “cycling” process
to prevent possible overheating.
If you live in Canada or you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator or
garage door opener by using the program-
ming procedures, replace “Programming a
New HomeLink Button” step 3 with the
following: ! Erasing HomeLink Buttons
S03AP070412
To erase programming from the three
buttons (individual buttons cannot be
erased but can be “reprogrammed” as
outlined below), follow the step noted:
While the HomeLink indicator light is
flashing orange, press and release (“cy-
cle”) your device’s hand-held remote every
two seconds until the HomeLink indicator
light changes from orange to green. You
may now release the hand-held remote
button. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink
buttons for at least 10 seconds. The LED
indicator will change from c ontinuously lit
to rapidly flashing. Release both buttons.
Do not hold for longer than 20 seconds.
HomeLink is now ready to be programmed
at any time beginning with “Programming a
New HomeLink Button” - step 1.
NOTE
If programming a garage door opener
or gate operator, it is advised to unplug
Proceed with “Programming a New
HomeLink Button” step 4 to complete.
