CANADIAN Programming/Gate Programming
Canadian RF laws require transmitter signals to time-out after several seconds of transmission which may not be long enough for the HomeLink® transceiver to pick up the RF signal during programming. Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate openers are designed to time-out in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties programming a gate opener by using the programming procedures, replace "Reprogramming HomeLink® Transceiver Codes" step 3 with the following:
