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 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.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties programming a gate operator by using the “Programming” procedures (regardless of where you live), replace “Programming HomeLink” step 3 with the following:
If programming a garage door opener or gate operator, it is advised to unplug the device during the “cycling” process to prevent possible overheating.
Continue to press and hold the HomeLink button while you press and release ― every two seconds (“cycle”) your hand-held transmitter until the frequency signal has successfully been accepted by HomeLink. (The indicator light will flash slowly and then rapidly.)
Proceed with “Programming” step 4 to complete.

While the indicator light is flashing in amber, press the button on the hand-held transmitter for 2 seconds and release it repeatedly until the indicator light changes from amber to green.
Go back to Step 4 of Programming the HomeLink System to complete the procedure.
