Radio Signals for Canada and Some Gate Operators

For questions or programming help call 1-800-355-3515 or see www.homelink.com.

Canadian radio-frequency laws and some U.S. gate operators require transmitter signalsto time out or quit after several seconds of transmission. This may not be long enoughfor the Universal Remote system to pick up the signal during programming.

If the programming did not work, replace Step 2 under “Programming the Universal RemoteSystem” with the following:

Press and hold the Universal Remote system button while pressing and releasing thehand-held transmitter button every two seconds until the signal has been successfullyaccepted by the Universal Remote system. The Universal Remote system indicator lightwill flash slowly at first and then rapidly. Proceed with Step 3 under “Programmingthe Universal Remote System” to complete.
