! HomeLink
®Wireless Control Sys-
tem
The HomeLink
®Wireless Control System
provides a convenient way to replace up
to three hand-held radiofrequency re-
motes used to activate devices such as
gate operators, garage door openers,
entry door locks, security systems, even
home lighting. The below steps are generic programming instructions; for
Genie and Sommer garage door openers
please go directly to the HomeLink
®website. Additional information and pro-
gramming videos can be found at
www.HomeLink.com and
www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex.
CAUTION
.
Before programming HomeLink®to a garage door opener or gate
operator, make sure that people
and objects are out of the way of
the device to prevent potential
harm or damage.
. When programming a garage
door opener, it is advised to park
outside of the garage.
. Do not use HomeLink
®with any
garage door opener that lacks
safety stop and reverse features
as required by U.S. federal safety
standards (this includes any gar-
age door opener model manufac-
tured before April 1, 1982). A
garage door that cannot detect
an object signaling the door to
stop and reverse does not meet
current U.S. federal safety stan-
dards.

Gate Operator / Canadian Pro-
gramming
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.
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:
While the HomeLink
®indicator light is
flashing orange, press and release (“cy-
cle ”)yourdevice ’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.
