Acura 2001 TL - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 93)

Canadian Owners:
The remote control you are training
from may stop transmitting after two
seconds. This is not long enough for
the HomeLink transmitter to learn
the code. Release and press the
button on the remote control every
two seconds until the transmitter has
learned the code.
The red light in the transmitter
should begin flashing. It will flash
slowly at first, then rapidly.
When the red light flashes rapidly,
release both buttons. The
transmitter should have learned
the code from the remote control.
Plug in the garage door opener
motor, then test the transmitter
button by pushing it. It should
operate the garage door.
If the button does not work, repeat
this procedure to train it again. If it
still does not work, you may have a
variable or rolling code garage
door opener. Test this by pressing
and holding the HomeLink
transmitter button you just trained.
If the red light blinks for two
seconds, then stays on, you have a
rolling code garage door opener.
You may be able to verify this with
the manufacturer’s documentation.
Go to ‘‘Training With a Rolling
Code System.’’
Repeat these steps to train the
other two transmitter buttons to
operate any other remotely-
controlled devices around your
home (lighting, automatic gate,
security system, etc.).
For security purposes, newer garage
door opening systems use a ‘‘rolling’’
or variable code. Information from
the remote control and the garage
door opener are needed before the
HomeLink transmitter can operate
the garage door opener.
The‘‘Training the Transmitter’’
procedure trains the HomeLink
transmitter to the proper garage
door opener code. The following
procedure synchronizes the
HomeLink transmitter to the garage
door opener so they send and
receive the correct codes. 5.
