Garage Door Opener, Function - GF68.05-P-0001GW
Model 463 (except 463.342)
as of model year 2013
with code YF9 (Garage door opener)
Function requirements, general
- Circuit 15R ON
The electronic ignition lock control unit transmits the circuit 15 status via the interior CAN to the overhead control panel control unit or the SAM control unit.
Garage door opener, general
The garage door opener transmitter unit is a remote control capable of learning with which various receivers of the opening and locking systems for doors or gates can be activated.
The garage door opener is integrated into the inside rearview mirror.
The garage door opener signals are read in via the roof LIN by the overhead control panel control unit (as of 03.04.2018) or the SAM control unit (up to 02.04.2018). The garage door opener radio signal has a range of approx. 85 % of the original hand transmitter.
Depending on the national version, either the 284 to 390 MHz frequency range is available (e. g. with code ZU8 (National version USA)) or the following frequencies:
- MHz
- MHz
- MHz
- MHz
- MHz
- MHz
User guidance (single-hand operation) is provided by multi-colored indicator light (green, yellow and red) on the garage door opener.
The garage door opener function comprises the following partial functions:
- Transmitting radio signal
- Programming memories
- Erasing memory locations
- Resetting as-delivered state
- Violation protection
Transmitting radio signal
When one of the following buttons is pressed, a radio signal assigned to this memory is transmitted:
- Garage door opener button 1
- Garage door opener button 2
- Garage door opener button 3
The function is confirmed by the garage door opener indicator lamp (green).
Programming memories
Hold down desired garage door opener button for at least 10 s.
The garage door opener changes into learning mode which is displayed by the flashing garage door opener (yellow) at a frequency of 1 Hz. Then hold original hand transmitter with activated transmitter function for at least up to 90 s in the vicinity of the garage door opener (3 to 20 cm). The transmission frequency for the transmitter is now learned. In the process the garage door opener transmitter unit searches for the suitable frequency among the possible transmission frequencies.
Successful termination of the teach-in procedure is indicated by the garage door opener indicator lamp illuminating green (fixed code learned in) or flashing green (variable code with 5.6 Hz learned in). An unsuccessful attempt is indicated by the garage door opener indicator lamp illuminating red.
The garage door opener is approx. 85 % compatible with the garage door opening systems offered on the primary sales markets. If the Telestart transmitter is not compatible with the garage door opener, a universal receiver ("Fix Kit Receiver") that reacts to the factory programming of the garage door opener can be installed in the garage.
Erasing memory locations
Press simultaneously to erase the memory of the two outer garage door opener buttons for at least 10 s. The garage door opener indicator lamp flashes green for 10 s. Release garage door opener buttons during flashing phase. The existing data of the memory locations is erased.
The garage door opener goes to the learn-in mode when one of the three garage door opener buttons is pressed again.
If programming is not performed during the learning mode for a period of 100 s the garage door opener switches off automatically to protect the on-board electrical system.
Resetting as-delivered state
Press simultaneously to reset the memory of the two outer garage door opener buttons for at least 30 s.
Basic setting (depending on national version):
- "Chamberlain" algorithm (f = 310 MHz) (e. g. with code ZU8 (National version USA))
- "Keelog" algorithm (f = 433 MHz)
Violation protection
During every communication, the overhead control panel control unit (as of 03.04.2018) or the SAM control unit (up to 02.04.2018) transmits a security code via the roof LIN to the garage door opener. If the safety code transmitted does not coincide with the stored safety code, the channels learned in are erased. However, the national coding is maintained.
