eral parts (Figure 8-1). Each transmission begins with

a preamble and a header, followed by the encrypted

and then the fixed data. The actual data is 66/69 bits

which consists of 32 bits of encrypted data and 34/37

bits of non-encrypted data.

Each transmission is fol-

lowed by a guard period before another transmission

can begin. The encrypted portion provides up to four

billion changing code combinations and includes the

button status bits (based on which buttons were acti-

vated) along with the synchronization counter value

and some discrimination bits. The non-encrypted por-

tion is comprised of the status bits, the function bits,

and the 28-bit serial number. The encrypted and non-

encrypted combined sections increase the number of

Code Word Organization

The HCSXXX encoder transmits a 66/69-bit code word

when a button is pressed. The 66/69-bit word is con-

structed from an encryption portion and a non-

encrypted code portion (Figure 8-2).

The Encrypted Data is generated from four button bits,

two overflow counter bits, ten discrimination bits, and

the 16-bit synchronization value.

The Non-encrypted Data is made up from 2 status

bits, 4 function bits, and the 28/32-bit serial number.
