Users Manual

HomeLink and the HomeLink house are registered trademarks of Johnson Controls, Inc. Programming and Information Guide The following is suggested text to be included in the vehicle Owner’s Manual, to assist the End User with functionality of their HomeLink Device. The HomeLink Wireless Control System provides a convenient way to replace up to three hand- held radio-frequency (RF) transmitters used to activate devices such as gate operators, garage door openers, entry door locks, security systems, even home lighting. Additional HomeLink information can be found on the Internet at www.homelink.com . Product and vehicle specific programming videos and other HomeLink related information can also be found at YouTube.com listed at the end of this document. Precautions ! Before programming HomeLink to a garage door opener or gate operator, make sure that people and objects are out of the way of the device to prevent potential harm or damage. When programming a garage door opener, it is advised to park outside of the garage. Do not use HomeLink with any garage door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by U.S. federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door that cannot detect an object - signaling the door to stop and reverse - does not meet current U.S. federal safety standards. For more information, contact HomeLink at: www.homelink.com . Retain the original transmitter of the RF device you are programming for use in other vehicles as well as for future HomeLink programming. It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink buttons be erased for security purposes. Refer to “Erasing HomeLink Buttons”. Programming HomeLink Note: Some vehicles may require the ignition switch to be turned on or to the second (“accessories”) position for programming and/or operation of HomeLink. It is also recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLink for quicker training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal. 1. Position the end of your hand-held transmitter 1–3 inches (5–14 cm) away from the HomeLink button you wish to program while keeping the indicator light in view. 2. Simultaneously press and hold both the chosen HomeLink and hand-held transmitter buttons until the HomeLink indicator light changes from a slow to either a rapid blink (rolling code) or solid ON state (fixed code). If the indicator light has the multi color feature, the LED will also change from yellow to green. Now you may release both the HomeLink and hand-held transmitter buttons. Note: Some devices may require you to replace this Programming Step 2 with procedures noted in the “Gate Operator / Canadian Programming” section. If the HomeLink indicator HomeLink and the HomeLink house are registered trademarks of Johnson Controls, Inc. light does not change to a rapidly blinking light after performing these steps, contact HomeLink at www.homelink.com. 3. Firmly press, hold for five seconds and release the programmed HomeLink button up to two separate times to activate the door. If the door does not activate, press and hold the just- trained HomeLink button and observe the indicator light.  If the indicator light stays on constantly, programming is complete and your device should activate when the HomeLink button is pressed and released.  If the indicator light blinks continuously, continue with “Programming” steps 4-6 to complete the programming of a rolling code equipped device (most commonly a garage door opener). 4. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in the garage, locate the “Learn” or “Smart” Button. This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the motor-head unit (see the Garage Door Opener manual to identify the “Learn Button”). 5. Firmly press and release the “learn” or “smart” button. (The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer.) There are typically 30 seconds to initiate step 6. 6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two seconds and release the programmed HomeLink button. Repeat the “press/hold/release” sequence a second time, and, depending on the brand of the garage door opener (or other rolling code equipped device), repeat this sequence a third time to complete the programming process. HomeLink should now activate your rolling code equipped device. 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. HomeLink and the HomeLink house are registered trademarks of Johnson Controls, Inc. If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties programming a gate operator or garage door opener by using the “Programming” procedures, replace “Programming HomeLink” step 2 with the following: Note: If programming a garage door opener or gate operator, it is advised to unplug the device during the “cycling” process to prevent possible overheating. 2. Continue to press and hold the HomeLink button while you press and release - every two seconds (“cycle”) your hand-held transmitter until the HomeLink indicator light changes from a slow to either a rapid blink (rolling code) or solid ON state (fixed code). Now you may release both the HomeLink and hand-held transmitter buttons. Proceed with “Programming” step 3 to complete. Additional Steps for Programming a Door System with Feedback The HomeLink has the capability of receiving Garage Door Status from compatible Garage Door Opener Systems. Check your Garage Door Opener Manual for the available feature and HomeLink compatibility. Also for a listing of compatible systems contact HomeLink at: www.homelink.com . Within the first (10) Hom…

RF Exposure Info

2/21/2013 1 RF Exposure / SAR Information – FCC KDB 447498 FCC ID: CB2440AHL5 Applicant: Johnson Controls, Inc. Model: 440AHL5 The following describes the use case, user separation for the extremities and head, and conducted power of the 440AHL5 model. Per KDB 447498 section 4.3.1, the module was under the test exclusion thresholds for all bands. This device is designed to be used while in a seated position inside of a vehicle. The operational condition is shown in the diagram below. It operates while a button is pressed, therefore the finger would be the closest part of the body to the antenna while it is transmitting. This distance is approximately 35mm due to the separation between the button surface and the antenna. The antenna to head distance would conservatively be 200mm away during the transmission. 2/21/2013 2 Calculations: As the finger would be inside of the 50mm test separation distance, the following formula would be used for calculating the extremity exclusion threshold: [(max power in mW) / (min test separation in mm)] * [(f(GHz))^1/2] The head conservatively would not be closer than 200mm away, which would put it outside of the 50mm test separation distance. Thus the following formulas would be used for calculating the head exclusion threshold: 2/21/2013 3 Step 1 threshold = {3 / [(f(GHz))^1/2]}*(50) then the limit in mW is given by [Step 1 threshold + (test separation distance – 50mm) * (f(MHz)/150]mW Frequency – 288MHz Measured Conducted Power – 15.39dBm Converting to mW – 15.39dBm = 35mW Extremity Test Separation – 35mm Head Test Separation – 200mm 2/21/2013 4 Conducted Measurement 10-g Extremity: [(35mW) / (35mm)] * [(0.288(GHz))^1/2] = 0.537 Which is less than the 7.5 for 10-g SAR 1-g Head: {3 / [(0.288(GHz))^1/2]}*(50) = 280 [280 + (200mm – 50mm) * 288/150]mW = 568mW 2/21/2013 5 35mW max output is less than the 568mW limit for test separation distances > 50mm Frequency – 310MHz Measured Conducted Power – 15.28dBm Converting to mW – 15.28dBm = 34mW Extremity Test Separation – 35mm Head Test Separation – 200mm Conducted Measurement 2/21/2013 6 10-g Extremity: [(34mW) / (35mm)] * [(0.310(GHz))^1/2] = 0.541 Which is less than the 7.5 for 10-g SAR 1-g Head: {3 / [(0.310(GHz))^1/2]}*(50) = 269 [269 + (200mm – 50mm) * 310/150]mW = 579mW 34mW max output is less than the 579mW limit for test separation distances > 50mm Frequency – 365MHz Measured Conducted Power – 14.78dBm Converting to mW – 14.78dBm = 30mW Extremity Test Separation – 35mm Head Test Separation – 200mm 2/21/2013 7 Conducted Measurement 2/21/2013 8 10-g Extremity: [(30mW) / (35mm)] * [(0.365(GHz))^1/2] = .518 Which is less than the 7.5 for 10-g SAR 1-g Head: {3 / [(0.365(GHz))^1/2]}*(50) = 248 [248 + (200mm – 50mm) * 365/150]mW = 613mW 30mW max output is less than the 613mW limit for test separation distances > 50mm Frequency – 433MHz Measured Conducted Power – 10.57dBm Converting to mW – 10.57dBm = 11mW Extremity Test Separation – 35mm Head Test Separation – 200mm 2/21/2013 9 Conducted Measurement 10-g Extremity: [(11mW) / (35mm)] * [(0.433(GHz))^1/2] = 0.207 Which is less than the 7.5 for 10-g SAR 2/21/2013 10 1-g Head: {3 / [(0.433(GHz))^1/2]}*(50) = 228 [228 + (200mm – 50mm) * 433/150]mW = 661mW 11mW max output is less than the 661mW limit for test separation distances > 50mm Frequency – 902.25MHz Measured Conducted Power – 12.02dBm Converting to mW – 12.02dBm = 16mW Extremity Test Separation – 35mm Head Test Separation – 200mm 2/21/2013 11 Conducted Measurement 10-g Extremity: [(16mW) / (35mm)] * [(0.90225(GHz))^1/2] = 0.434 Which is less than the 7.5 for 10-g SAR 2/21/2013 12 1-g Head: {3 / [(0.90225(GHz))^1/2]}*(50) = 158 [158 + (200mm – 50mm) * 902.25/150]mW = 1060mW 16mW max output is less than the 1060mW limit for test separation distances > 50mm Frequency – 914.75MHz Measured Conducted Power – 12.04dBm Converting to mW – 12.04dBm = 16mW Extremity Test Separation – 35mm Head Test Separation – 200mm 2/21/2013 13 Conducted Measurement 10-g Extremity: [(16mW) / (35mm)] * [(0.91475(GHz))^1/2] = 0.437 Which is less than the 7.5 for 10-g SAR 2/21/2013 14 1-g Head: {3 / [(0.91475(GHz))^1/2]}*(50) = 157 [157 + (200mm – 50mm) * 914.75/150]mW = 1072mW 16mW max output is less than the 1072mW limit for test separation distances > 50mm Frequency – 926.75MHz Measured Conducted Power – 12.03dBm Converting to mW – 12.03dBm = 16mW Extremity Test Separation – 35mm Head Test Separation – 200mm 2/21/2013 15 Conducted Measurement 10-g Extremity: [(16mW) / (35mm)] * [(0.92675(GHz))^1/2] = 0.441 Which is less than the 7.5 for 10-g SAR 2/21/2013 16 1-g Head: {3 / [(0.92675(GHz))^1/2]}*(50) = 156 [156 + (200mm – 50mm) * 926.75/150]mW = 1083mW 16mW max output is less than the 1083mW limit for test separation distances > 50mm
