HomeLink

T Universal Transceiver provides a

convenient way to consolidate the functions of

up to three individual hand-held transmitters

into one built-in device.
HomeLink

T Universal Transceiver:

● Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF) de-

vices such as garage doors, gates, home and

office lighting, entry door locks and security

systems.

● Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No

separate batteries are required. If the vehi-

cle’s battery is discharged or is discon-

nected, HomeLink

T will retain all program-

ming.

Once HomeLinkT Universal Transceiver is pro-

grammed, retain the original transmitter for fu-

ture programming procedures (Example: new ve-

hicle purchases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the

programmed HomeLinkT Universal Transceiver

buttons should be erased for security purposes.

For additional information, see “PROGRAMMING

HomeLinkT” later in this section.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WARNING

● Do not use HomeLinkT Universal Transceiver

with any garage door opener that lacks

safety stop and reverse features as required

by federal safety standards. (These stan-

dards became effective for opener models

manufactured after April 1, 1982.) A garage

door opener which cannot detect an object in

the path of a closing garage door and then

automatically stop and reverse, does not

meet current federal safety standards. Using

a garage door opener without these features

increases the risk of serious injury or death.

● During programming procedure, your garage

door or security gate may open or close.

Make sure that people and objects are clear

of the garage door, gate, etc. that you are

programming.

● Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off

while programming HomeLinkT Universal

Transceiver.

PROGRAMMING HOMELINK

To program your HomeLink

T Transceiver to op-

erate a garage door, gate, or entry door opener,

home or office lighting, you need to be at the

same location as the device. Note: Garage door

openers (manufactured after 1996) have “rolling

code protection”. To program a garage door

opener equipped with “rolling code protection”;

you will need to use a ladder to get up to the

garage door opener motor to be able to access

the “smart or learn” program button.

1. To begin, push and hold the 2 outer

HomeLink

T buttons (to clear the memory)

until the indicator light

blinks (after 20

seconds). Release both buttons.

2. Position the end of the hand-held trans-

mitter

1-3

inches

away

from

the

HomeLink

T surface.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. Using both hands, simultaneously push

and hold both the HomeLink

T button you

want to program and the hand-held trans-

mitter button.

DO NOT release the buttons until step 4

has been completed.

4. Hold down both buttons until the indica-

tor light on HomeLink

T flashes, changing

from a “slow blink” to a “rapid blink”.

This could take up to 90 seconds. When

the indicator light blinks rapidly, both

buttons may be released. The rapidly

flashing light indicates successful pro-

gramming. To activate the garage door or

other programmed device, push and hold

the programmed HomeLink

T button - re-

leasing when the device begins to acti-

vate.

5. If the indicator light on HomeLink

T blinks

rapidly for two seconds and then turns

solid, HomeLink

T has picked up a “rolling

code” garage door opener signal. You will

need to proceed with the next steps to

train HomeLink

T, completing the pro-

gramming may require a ladder and an-

other person for convenience.

6. Push and release the program button

located on the garage door opener’s mo-

tor to activate the “training mode”. This

button is usually located near the an-

tenna wire that hangs down from the

motor. If the wire originates from under a

light lens, you will need to remove the

lens to access the training button.

NOTE:
Once you have pushed and released the training

button on the garage door opener’s motor and

the “training light” is lit, you have 30 seconds in

which to perform step 7. For convenience, use

the help of a second person to assist when per-

forming this step.
7. Quickly (within 30 seconds of pushing

and releasing the garage door opener

training button) and firmly push and re-

lease the HomeLink

T button you’ve just

programmed. Push and release the

HomeLink

T button up to three times to

complete the training.

8. Your HomeLink

T button should now be

programmed. To program the remaining

HomeLink

T buttons for additional door or

gate openers, follow steps 2 through 8

only.

NOTE:
Do not repeat step 1 unless you want to “clear”

all previously programmed HomeLinkT buttons.
If you have any questions or are having diffi-

culty programming your HomeLink

T buttons,

please refer to the HomeLink

T web site at:

www.homelink.com or call 1-800-355-3515.
