HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
pg. 186 HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
This transceiver allows you to replace 3 hand -held transmitters with a single built-in device which can be installed in
your car on a sun visor or overhead console. This feature "learns" the radio frequency codes of most current
transmitters to operate garage doors, driveway gates, security lighting and home security systems. This transceiver is
powered by your car's electrical system.
NOTE: As a security precaution, the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver is designed to not function if the car has
been locked from the outside .
Programming the transceiver
1. Begin by erasing all 3 factory default channels by holding down the two outside buttons (buttons 1 and 3 in the
illustration above) on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver until the indicator light on the transceiver begins to flash,
after approximately 20 seconds.
Release the buttons.
2. Hold the end of your hand -held transmitter 2 to 5 in. (5 to 12 cm) away from the HomeLink® surface, keeping the
indicator light in view. For placement questions, please contact HomeLink® at
1-800-355-3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.jci.com).
3. Using both hands, simultaneously push the hand -held transmitter button and the HomeLink® button to be
programmed. Do not release the buttons until this step has been completed.
The HomeLink® indicator light will begin to flash, first slowly, then rapidly. When the indicator light flashes rapidly
