Gate operator/Canadian

Programming

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 programming. Similar to

this Canadian law, some U.S. gate

operators are designed to “time-out”

in the same manner.

If you live in Canada or are having

di

ffi

culties programming a gate

operator by using the programming

procedures (regardless of where you

live), 

replace Step 3 of Programming

the HomeLink System

 with the

following:

NOTE

If programming a garage door opener

or gate operator, it is advised to unplug

the device during the “cycling” process

to prevent possible overheating.
While the indicator light is 

fl

ashing in

amber, press the button on the

hand-held transmitter for 2 seconds

and release it repeatedly until the

indicator light changes from amber to

green.

Go back to Step 4 of Programming the

HomeLink System to complete the

procedure.

Operating the HomeLink System

Press the programmed HomeLink

button to operate a programmed

device.

▼

Reprogramming the HomeLink

system

To program a device to HomeLink

using a HomeLink button previously

trained, follow these steps:

1. Press and hold the desired

HomeLink button. 

DO NOT

 release

the button.

2. After 20 seconds, the indicator light

fl

ashes in amber. After the indicator

light 

fl

ashes, release the HomeLink

button.

3. Go back to Step 2 of Programming

the HomeLink System to complete

the procedure.

NOTE

If the programming has not been

completed, the system returns to the

previous programming.

Erasing Programmed HomeLink

Buttons

NOTE



All of the programmed HomeLink

buttons are reset. Individual buttons

cannot be reset, however, individual

buttons can be reprogrammed. For

individual button reprogramming,

refer to Reprogramming the

HomeLink System (page 4-63).



Verify that the programming has
