quire you to replace step 4 with the procedures listed
under Canadian Programming.
5. The indicator light (D) will begin to flash, first slowly
and then rapidly. The rapid flashing indicates successful
programming. If after 90 seconds the indicator light does
not flash rapidly or goes out, return to step 1 and repeat
the procedure. To train the other buttons, repeat steps 3
and 4. Be sure to keep your hand held transmitters in case
you need to retrain the universal transceiver.
Refer to the Rolling Code Programming or the
Canadian/Gate paragraphs for additional procedures, if
necessary.
If you do not successfully program the universal trans-
ceiver to learn the signal of your hand held transmitter,
refer to the Rolling Code Paragraph, or call toll-free for
customer assistance at 1±800±355±3515, or on the internet
at www.homelink.jci.com.
Canadian Programming/Gate Programming
Canadian frequency laws, and the technology of some
entry gates, require you to press and release the hand
held transmitter button every two seconds during pro-
gramming.
Continue to press and hold the universal transceiver
button (A, B or C) while you press and release the hand
held transmitter button until the frequency signal has
been learned. The indicator light (D) will flash slowly
and then rapidly when the programming is successful.
NOTE:
²When programming such a garage door opener or
gate, unplug the device to prevent possible damage to
the garage door or gate motor.
