Programming and Information Guide The HomeLink® Wireless Control System provides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held radio-frequency (RF) transmitters used to activate devices such as gate operators, garage door openers, entry door locks, security systems, and even home lighting. For compatible products and video programming instructions, please visit www.HomeLink.com, www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex, or call the helpline at (0) 0800 046 635 465 (Europe), +49 6838 907 277 (Europe, subject to charge). Before Programming HomeLink 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 garage door opener model manufactured 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 standards. 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. Notes Garage door opener motors manufactured after 1995 may be equipped with rolling code protection. If this is the case, you may need a stepladder or other sturdy, safe device to reach the “Learn” or “Smart” button on the garage door motor. It is recommended that a new battery be placed in the remote control transmitter for quicker training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal. Retain the original transmitter of the RF device you are programming for use in other vehicles as well as for future HomeLink programming. It is suggested that upon the sale or lease termination of the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink buttons be erased for security purposes. Refer to “Erasing HomeLink Buttons” later in these instructions. You can program a maximum of three devices. To change or replace any of the three devices after it has been initially programmed, you must first erase the current settings.

See ‘Erasing HomeLink Buttons’ or ‘Reprogramming a Single HomeLink Button’ later in these instructions. Please note that the instructions below apply to the majority of HomeLink use cases. However, there are some HomeLink applications or HomeLink compatible systems that require slightly different instructions. In these cases, please visit www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex for system specific training videos. Programming a New HomeLink Note: Some vehicles may require the ignition switch to be turned on or to the second (“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 programmed to HomeLink for quicker training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal. 1. Press the HomeLink button that you would like to program. The indicator light will flash orange slowly (if not, refer to “Erasing HomeLink Buttons” later in these instructions). You do not need to continue holding the HomeLink button. 2. Position the end of your hand-held transmitter 1–3 inches (2–8 cm) away from the HomeLink button while keeping the indicator light in view. Note: Some hand-held transmitters may actually train better a distance of 6-12 inches (15-20 cm). Keep this in mind if you have difficulty with the Programming Process. 3. Press and hold the hand-held transmitter button while watching the indicator light on HomeLink. Continue pressing the button until the HomeLink indicator light changes from slowly flashing orange to either rapidly flashing green (rolling code) or continuously lit (fixed code) green. Now you may release the hand-held transmitter button. Note: Some devices may require you to replace this “Programming a New HomeLink” step 3 with procedures noted in the “Gate Operator / Canadian / European Programming” section. If the HomeLink indicator light does not change to rapidly flashing green or continuously lit green after performing these steps, contact HomeLink at www.HomeLink.com 4. Press the newly programmed HomeLink button and observe the indicator light. • If the indicator light stays on constantly green, programming is complete and your device should operate when the HomeLink button is pressed and released. • If the indicator light rapidly flashes green, firmly press, hold for two seconds and release the programmed 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. At this point if your device operates, programming is complete. HomeLink® and the HomeLink® house icon are registered trademarks of Gentex Corporation.
• If the device does not operate, continue with “Programming a New HomeLink” steps 5-7 to complete the programming of a rolling code equipped device. 5. 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 (see the Garage Door Opener manual to identify the “Learn Button”). Figure 1: Approximate Learn Button Location Note: A ladder and/or second person may simplify the following steps. 6. Firmly press and release the “Learn” or “Smart” button. (The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer.) There are typically 30 seconds to initiate step 7. 7. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two seconds and release the programmed 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. In the event that there are still programming difficulties or questions, additional HomeLink information and programming videos can be found online at www.HomeLink.com, youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by calling the HomeLink Hotline. Gate Operator / Canadian / European 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 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. Also some European transmitters may behave in a similar manner. The indicator LED on the hand-held transmitter will go off when the device times out indicating that it has finished transmitting.

If you live in Canada, Europe or you are having difficulties programming a gate operator or garage door opener by using the “Programming” procedures, replace “Programming a New HomeLink” step 3 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 prevent possible overheating. 3. Press and release - every two seconds (“cycle”) your hand-held transmitter until the HomeLink indicator light changes from a slowly flashing orange to either rapidly flashing green (rolling code) or continuously lit green (fixed code). Now you may release the hand-held transmitter button. Proceed with “Programming a New HomeLink” step 4 to complete. Using HomeLink To operate, simply press and release the programmed HomeLink button. Activation 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 transmitter 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: 1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink buttons for at least 10 seconds. The LED indicator will change from continuously lit to rapidly flashing. 2. Release both buttons. Note: Do not hold for longer than 20 seconds. 3. HomeLink is now in the train (or learning) mode and can be programmed at any time beginning with “Programming a New HomeLink” - step 1. Reprogramming a Single HomeLink Button To program a device to HomeLink using a 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 slowly flash orange after 20 seconds. The HomeLink button can be released at this point. Proceed with “Programming a New HomeLink” - step 2 3. If you do not complete the programming of a new device to the button, it will revert to the previously stored programming.
