channel, proceed
to Step 2. Otherwise, hold down the
two outside buttons on the universal transmitter until
the red light begins to flash rapidly (approximately

Also note that if the hand-held transmitter appears to
program
the universal transmitter but does not open
your garage door,
and if the garage door opener was
manufactured after 1995, the garage door opener may
have

changes the code
of the garage door opener every time
you open or close the garage door.
To determine if you have this system, press the button
on the universal transmitter that you have programmed
already.
If the red light on the universal transmitter
flashes rapidly for
one or two seconds and then
stops flashing, the garage door opener has a rolling
code system.
