Gate Operator / Canadian Programming

Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter signals to "time-out" (or quit) after several seconds of transmission - which may not be long enough for the garage opener to pick up the signal during programming. Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to "time-out" in the same manner.

If you live in Canada or you are having diffi- culties programming a gate operator by using the "Programming" procedures (regardless of where you live), replace "Programming " step 4 with the following:

Note: If programming a garage door opener or gate operator, it is advised to unplug the device during the "cycling" process to pre- vent possible overheating.

Continue to press and hold the button while you press and release - every two sec- onds ("cycle") your hand-held transmitter until the frequency signal has successfully been accepted by the garage opener. (The indicator light will flash slowly and then rap- idly.)

Proceed with "Programming" step five to complete.

NOTICE

Switch off the power supply to the garage door or gate (or park the car beyond the range of the remote control) while pro- gramming using the "cycling" method to prevent damaging the electrical motor.

Reprogramming a single button

To program a device to the garage opener using a button previously trained, follow these steps:

1Press and hold the desired button. DO NOT release the button.

2The indicator light will begin to flash after 20 seconds. Without releasing the but- ton, proceed with "Programming" - step 3.

Erasing the three buttons

To erase programming from the three but- tons (individual buttons cannot be erased but can be "reprogrammed" as outlined below), follow the step noted:

Press and hold the two outer buttons until the indicator light begins to flash-after

20 seconds. Release both buttons. Do not hold for longer that 30 seconds. The garage opener is now in the train (or learn- ing) mode and can be programmed at any time beginning with "Programming" - step 3.
