OT Genie garage door opener - programming?

[RayP(MI)]

Have a Genie door opener. Two of three remote controls seem to work fine. Believe the third needs to be reprogrammed to the receiver. Been a while since I tried to do this. Can anyone remind me how this is done, (Short of a electrical cattle prod in unpleasant places?)

Another question: Genie uses what they call "rolling code" to prevent unwanted openings from other controllers, miscellaneous other rf sources. Anyone know how this is accomplished?

The genie I saw had a button on the opener itself and when you pushed it I think an led started blinking. At that point you pushed the remote and they linked up. I am not sure about multiple remotes that you seem to indicate.

I am going on my memory but I think with the door behind you the button was in the upper left corner of the drive unit.

Rolling codes are a part of the chip manufacturers chip system. Microchip calls it KeeLoq (a trade mark) code hopping.
