Abstract:
A method of programming a barrier movement actuating receiver to respond to fixed or rolling access codes which must correspond to stored access codes for actuating barrier movement, comprising:enabling a programmer located within the barrier movement actuating receiver to learn an access code type;receiving a first access code;identifying whether the received first access code is a fixed type access code or a rolling type access code;enabling the programmer located within the barrier movement actuating receiver to learn access codes of the identified type;setting a controller, the controller having a fixed access code routine for learning of and response to fixed type access codes and a rolling access code routine for learning of and response to rolling type access codes, to execute only the access code routine which corresponds to the type of access code identified;executing the access code routine to learn the received first access code;wherein upon learning of a first access code, all subsequent learned access codes must be of the same type until the access code type enabling step is repeated; andwherein upon learning of a first access code, the actuating receiver is programmed to accept only access codes of the identified type for correspondence with learned access codes to actuate barrier movement.
