Programming Tips & General Information
^ The compatible programming frequency range of the HomeLink(R) is between 288-322 MHz and 335-399 MHz.^ To ensure maximum range of the HomeLink(R), install a new battery in the hand-held transmitter prior to programming.
^ The effective transmission range of the HomeLink is usually equal to or greater than the hand-held transmitter.
^ The battery side of the hand-held transmitter must be pointed away from the HomeLink(R) during the programming process.
^ Keep the LED (Indicator Light) on the HomeLink(R) in view while programming.
^ Hold the hand-held transmitter 1-3 inches away from the HomeLink(R) while programming.
^ When programming rolling code, the training button can usually be found on the back of the garage door motor near the antenna wire.
NOTE:
Toyota ofters an optional Integrated HomeLink(R) Tester as an available Special Service Tool: SST # T0Y280087.
HomeLink(R) Tester Functions
The Integrated HomeLink(R) Tester (available SST # T0Y280087) is a tool that can be used to test the operating functions and performance of the HomeLink(R) Universal Transceiver.
Using the operating instructions provided with the Tester, there are three tests (Functionality, Range and Training) that can be performed.
^ Functionality Test;
^ Confirms power and ground source to the vehicle HomeLink(R)
^ Confirms that the HomeLink(R) programs can be cleared and that the HomeLink(R) can be placed in the default mode
^ Checks each signal of the three HomeLink(R) channels
^ Range Test:
^ Verifies the range of the HomeLink(R) to be within 50 to 100 feet from the vehicle for all three channels
^ Training Test:
^ Confirms the HomeLink(R) can be programmed to match the hand-held transmitter Verifies that the HomeLink(R) can transmit the programmed signal
