Synchronizing therolling code
Pay atten tiontothe "Importan tsafety notes"
(Y page 263).
If the garage doorsystem usesarolling code,
you willalso have tosynchron izethe garage

button maybelocated indifferent places
depending onthe manufact urer.Itis usuall y
located onthe door drive unitonthe garage

Therefore, thesesignals maynotlast long
enough forthe integr atedgarage dooropener.
The signal isnot recogn izedduring program-
