Customer Assistance

If you have problems with training
the HomeLink Universal

Transmitter, or would like
information on home products that
can be operated by the transmitter,

call (800) 355-3515. On the Internet,

go to www.homelink.jci.com. Important Safety Precautions
Always refer to the operating instructions and safety information
that came with your garage dooropener or other equipment you
intend to operate with the HomeLink Universal Transmitter. If you do not
have this information, you should contact the manufacturer of the
equipment.
While training or using the transmitter, make sure you have aclear view of the garage door or gate,
and that no one will be injured by its
movement.
General Information
If you are training the transmitter tooperate a garage door or gate, it is
recommended that you unplug the
motor for that device during training. Repeatedly pressing the remote
control button could burn out the
motor. The HomeLink transmitter stores
the code in a permanent memory.
There should be no need to retrain the transmitter if your car's battery
goes dead or is disconnected.
If your garage door opener was
manufactured before April 1982, you
may not be able to program the
HomeLink Universal Transmitter to
operate it. Garage door openers
manufactured before that date do
not have a safety feature that causes
them to stop and reverse if an
obstacle is detected during closing,
increasing the risk of injury. If you
have questions, call (800) 355-3515.

Training the Transmitter Before you can use the HomeLink
Universal Transmitter to operatedevices around your home, it must
"learn" the proper codes. For
example, to train the transmitter to open and close the garage door:
Before you begin — If you just took

delivery of your vehicle and have not
trained any of the buttons in the
HomeLink transmitter before, you should erase any previously learned
codes before training the first button.
To do this, press and hold the two outside buttons on the HomeLink
transmitter for about 20 seconds
until the red light flashes. Release the buttons, then proceed to Step 1.
If you are training the second or
third buttons, go directly to Step 1.
1. Unplug the garage door opener motor from the house current.
2. Hold the end of the garage door opener remote control 2 to 5
inches from the HomeLink
transmitter. Make sure you are
not blocking your view of the red
light in the transmitter. 3. Select the transmitter button you
want to train.
4. Press the button on the remote control and the button on the
transmitter at the same time. Hold down both buttons.

Canadian Owners:

The remote control you are training from may stop transmitting after two
seconds. This is not long enough for

the HomeLink transmitter to learn
the code. Release and press the

button on the remote control every
two seconds until the transmitter has

learned the code.

5. The red light in the transmitter should begin flashing. It will flash
slowly at first, then rapidly.
6. When the red light flashes rapidly,
release both buttons. The

transmitter should have learned

the code from the remote control.
7. Plug in the garage door opener motor, then test the transmitter
button by pushing it. It should operate the garage door.
If the button does not work, repeat
this procedure to train it again. If it still does not work, you may have a
variable or rolling code garage door opener. Test this by pressing
and holding the HomeLink
transmitter button you just trained. If the red light blinks for twoseconds, then stays on, you have a
rolling code garage door opener.
You may be able to verify this with the manufacturer's documentation. Go to "Training With a Rolling

Code System."

8. Repeat these steps to train the other two transmitter buttons to
operate any other remotely-
controlled devices around your
home (lighting, automatic gate, security system, etc.).
Training With a Rolling Code
System

For security purposes, newer garage
door opening systems use a "rolling"or variable code. Information from
the remote control and the garage door opener are needed before the
HomeLink transmitter can operate
the garage door opener.

The "Training the Transmitter"
procedure trains the HomeLink
transmitter to the proper garagedoor opener code. The following
procedure synchronizes the HomeLink transmitter to the garage
door opener so they send and
receive the correct codes.
