Gate operator/Canadian 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 the
integrated signal transmitter 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 if you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator
(regardless of where you live) by using the
programming procedures, replace step 4
with the following:
Step 4:
̈ Press and hold the signal transmitter
button (
2, 3 or 4). Do not release
this button until it has been successful-
ly trained.
̈ While still holding down the signal
transmitter button (
2, 3 or 4),
“cycle” your hand-held remote control
button
6 as follows: Press and hold
button 6 for 2 seconds, then release
it for 2 seconds, and again press and
hold it for 2 seconds. Repeat this se-
quence on the hand-held remote con-
trol until the frequency signal has been
learned. Upon successful training, the
indicator lamp
1 will flash slowly and
then rapidly after several seconds.
̈ Proceed with programming step 5 and
step 6 to complete.

Upon completion of programming the
integrated remote control, make sure
you retain the hand-held remote con-
trol that came with the garage door
opener, gate operator or other device.
You may need it for use in other vehi-
cles, for future programming of an
integrated remote control, or simply for
continued use as a hand-held remote
control to operate the respective
device in other situations.
