Canadian radiofrequency lawsrequire a
"break" (orinter ruption) ofthe tran smission
signals afterbroadcasting forafew seconds .
These signals maynottheref orelast long
enough forthe integr atedgarage dooropener

Comparable withCanadian law,some U.S.
garage dooropeners alsohave abuilt-in
"interr uption".
If you liveinCanada orhave difficulties
programming thegarage dooropener
