list of component programming codes, see “Component program codes”
on page 8. If the code is accepted, the LED flashes twice after the last digit
is entered.
If the LED does not flash twice, repeat Steps 2 through 4 with the next
code listed for the component and manufacturer.
Important Make sure that you try all the codes listed until you find
the one that works for the component.
