gate operator, security system, entry door

lock, home/office lighting, etc.). For conven-

ience, the hand-held transmitter of the device

may also be used at any time. In the event

that there are still programming difficulties or

questions, contact HomeLink at:

www.homelink.com/www.youtube.com/

HomeLinkGentex or by phoning the hotline at

1–800–355–3515.

NOTE

If the ignition is switched off, HomeLink

will function for 30 minutes after the driv-

er's door has been opened.

HomeLink

Wireless Control System*

– programming

The HomeLink Wireless Control System pro-

vides a convenient way to replace up to three

hand-held radio-frequency (RF) transmitters

used to activate devices such as gate opera-

tors, garage door openers, entry door locks,

security systems, even home lighting. Addi-

tional information can be found on the Inter-

net atwww.homelink.com/www.youtube.com/

HomeLinkGentex or by phoning the hotline at

1–800–355–3515.

NOTE

Some vehicles may require the ignition to

be switched on or be in the “accessories”

position for programming and/or operation

of HomeLink. It is also recommended that

a new battery be placed in the hand-held

transmitter of the device being pro-

grammed to HomeLink for quicker training

and accurate transmission of the radio-fre-

quency signal. The HomeLink buttons

must be reset first. When this has been

completed, Homelink is in learning mode

so that you can perform programming.

1. Position the end of your hand-held trans-

mitter 1–3 inches (5–14 cm) away from

the HomeLink button you wish to pro-

gram while keeping the indicator light in

view.

two seconds and then turns to a

constant light continue with “Pro-

gramming” steps 4-6 to complete the

programming of a rolling code equip-

ped device (most commonly a garage

door opener).

4. At the garage door opener receiver

(motor-head unit) in the garage, locate

the “learn” or “smart” button. This can

usually be found where the hanging

antenna wire is attached to the motor-

head unit.

5. Firmly press and release the “learn” or

“smart” button. (The name and color of

the button may vary by manufacturer.)

There are 30 seconds to initiate step 6.

6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press,

hold for two seconds and release the pro-

grammed HomeLink button. Repeat the

“press/hold/release” sequence a second

time, and, depending on the brand of the

garage door opener (or other rolling code

equipped device), repeat this sequence a

third time to complete the programming

process.

HomeLink should now activate your rolling

code equipped device.

03 Instruments and controls

Gate Operator/Canadian Programming

Canadian radio-frequency laws require trans-

mitter signals to “time-out” (or quit) after sev-

eral seconds of transmission – which may not

be long enough for HomeLink 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 or

garage door opener by using the “Program-

ming” procedures, replace “Programming

HomeLink” step 2 with the following:

•

Continue to press and hold the HomeLink

button while you press and release -

every two seconds (“cycle”) your hand-

held transmitter until the HomeLink indi-

cator light changes from a slow to a rap-

idly blinking light. Now you may release

both the HomeLink and hand-held trans-

mitter buttons.

Proceed with “Programming” step 3 to com-

plete.

Resetting HomeLink Buttons
Use the following procedure to reset (erase

programming) from the three HomeLink but-

tons (individual buttons cannot be reset but

can be “reprogrammed” as outlined in the fol-

lowing section):

1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink

buttons until the indicator light begins to

flash.

2. Release both buttons.

> HomeLink is now in the training (or

learning) mode and can be pro-

grammed at any time beginning with

“Programming” - step 1.

Reprogramming a Single HomeLink
Button
To program a device to HomeLink using a

HomeLink button previously trained, follow

these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink

button. DO NOT release the button.

2. The indicator light will begin to flash after

20 seconds. Without releasing the Home-

Link button, proceed with “Programming”

- step 1.
