HomeLink

Wireless Control Sys-

tem

The HomeLink

Wireless Control System

provides a convenient way to replace up to
three hand-held radiofrequency remotes
used to activate devices such as gate
operators, garage door openers, entry
door locks, security systems, even home
lighting. The below steps are generic

programming instructions; for Genie and
Sommer garage door openers please go
directly to the HomeLink

website. Addi-

tional information and programming vi-
deos can be found at
www.HomeLink.com and
www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex.

CAUTION

Before programming HomeLink

to a garage door opener or gate
operator, make sure that people
and objects are out of the way of
the device to prevent potential
harm or damage.

When programming a garage

door opener, it is advised to park
outside of the garage.

Do not use HomeLink

with any

garage door opener that lacks
safety stop and reverse features
as required by U.S. federal safety
standards (this includes any gar-
age door opener model manufac-
tured before April 1, 1982). A
garage door that cannot detect
an object signaling the door to
stop and reverse does not meet
current U.S. federal safety stan-
dards.

It is also recommended that a new

battery be placed in the hand-
held remote (garage door opener
remote) of the device for quicker
and more accurate training.

Turn the ignition switch to the

“ON” or “ACC” position before
programming and/or operating
HomeLink

Keep the hand-held remote (gar-

age door opener remote) of the
device you are programming for
use in other vehicles as well as
for future HomeLink

program-

ming. It is also suggested that
upon the sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomeLink

buttons

be erased for security purposes.
Refer to “Erasing HomeLink

but-

tons” F3-81.

Gate Operator / Canadian Pro-
gramming

Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter remote signals to “time-out”
(or quit) after several seconds of transmis-
sion, 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 de-
signed to “time-out” in the same manner.
The indicator LED on the hand-held
remote will go off when the device times
out, indicating that it has finished transmit-
ting.

If you live in Canada or you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator or
garage door opener by using the program-
ming procedures, replace “Programming a
New HomeLink

button” step 3 with the

following:

While the HomeLink

indicator light is

flashing orange, press and release (“cy-
cle”) your device’s hand-held remote every
two seconds until the HomeLink

indicator

light changes from orange to green. You
may now release the hand-held remote
button.

NOTE

If programming a garage door opener
or gate operator, it is advised to unplug

the device during the “cycling” process
to prevent possible overheating.

Proceed with “Programming a New
HomeLink

button” step 4 to complete.

Using HomeLink

To operate, simply press and release the
programmed HomeLink

button. Activa-

tion will now occur for the trained device
(i.e. garage door opener, gate operator,
security system, entry door lock, home/
office lighting, etc.). For convenience, the
hand-held remote of the device may also
be used at any time.

Erasing HomeLink

buttons

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

Press and hold the two outer HomeLink

buttons for at least 10 seconds. The LED
indicator will change from continuously lit
to rapidly flashing. Release both buttons.
Do not hold for longer than 20 seconds.
HomeLink

is now ready to be pro-

grammed at any time beginning with
“Programming a New HomeLink

button”

- step 1.

Garage Door Two-Way Commu-
nication

HomeLink

has the capability of commu-

nicating with your garage door opener.
HomeLink

can receive and display “clos-

ing” or “opening” status messages from
compatible garage door opener systems.
At any time, HomeLink

can also recall and

display the last recorded status commu-
nicated by the garage door opener to
indicate your garage door being “closed”
or “opened”.

HomeLink

has the capability of receiving

this communication from the garage door
opener at a range up to 820 feet (250 m).

Range may be reduced by obstacles such
as houses or trees. You may have to slow
your vehicle speed to successfully receive
the garage door opener communication.

Programming Two-Way Commu-
nication

Status Indicators

Within 5 seconds after programming a new
HomeLink

button, both of HomeLink’s

garage door status indicators will flash
rapidly green indicating that the garage
door two-way communication has been
enabled. If your garage door status in-
dicators flashed, two-way communication
programming is complete.

If the garage door status indicators do not
flash, additional HomeLink

information

and programming videos can be found

online at www.HomeLink.com and
www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex.
