DESIGN STEPS TO USING THE HS SERIES (CONT.)
Creation of Control Permissions
1. On the decoder, set the LEARN line high, then take it low to enter Learn Mode.
2. While the decoder’s MODE_IND line is toggling high / low, set a data line on the
encoder high, then low. Repeat for each line to which permission will be granted.
3. After all the desired data lines have been selected, set the LEARN line high,
then low again, or wait until the 17-second time-out occurs. The permissions will
now be saved in the decoder.
4. Select the data lines during an actual transmission to confirm that the
permissions have been successfully created.
USING THE OPTIONAL ENCODER PIN
Creation of an encoder PIN
1. Set the CREATE line high, then low to enter Create
PIN Mode. The MODE_IND line will begin toggling
high / low until either a PIN is successfully entered
or 15 seconds has passed.
2. To enter the PIN, set high then low a sequence of
any four data lines. The MODE_IND will stop
toggling and the PIN will be created.
3. To cancel the Create PIN Mode prior to the fourth
entry, either wait for the 15 second timeout to pass
or set and clear the CREATE line. The MODE_IND
will stop toggling and no PIN will be created.
4. If a new KEY is created, the PIN will be
automatically erased.
Using the PIN
1. The PIN is entered by setting each data line high, then taking it low until all four
entries have been made. There is a maximum 2-second time limit between
entries after which the PIN must be reentered in its entirety.
2. Once the PIN is successfully entered, the encoder will be operational unless it
is inactive for a period longer than what is chosen by the SEL_TIMER line, in
which case PIN reentry would be necessary.
