Types of Garage Door Openers (Fixed Code and Rolling Code) LEAR Car2U ™ has the capability of programming rolling code and fixed code garage door openers:xRolling code garage door openers are used for garage doors produced after 1996 and are code protected.  Rolling code means the coded signal is changed every time your remote control garage door opener is used. xFixed code garage door openers are used for garage doors produced prior to 1996.  Fixed code uses the same coded signal every time, which is manually programmed by setting DIP switches for a unique personal code.If you do not know if your garage door opener is a rolling code or fixed code device, open your garage door opener’s remote control battery cover.  If a panel of DIP switches is present as shown in the typical remote device shown below, your garage door opener is a fixed code device.If not, your garage door opener is a rolling code device.
