7.2
In a typical decoder operation (Figure 7-2), the key
generation on the decoder side is done by taking the
serial number from a transmission and combining that
with the manufacturer’s code to create the same secret
key that was used by the transmitter. Once the secret
key is obtained, the rest of the transmission can be
decrypted. The decoder waits for a transmission and
immediately can check the serial number to determine
if it is a learned transmitter. If it is, it takes the encrypted
portion of the transmission and decrypts it using the
stored key It uses the discrimination bits to determine if
the decryption was valid. If everything up to this point is
valid, the synchronization value is evaluated.

synchronization technique (Figure 7-3) which does not
require the calculation and storage of future codes. If
the stored counter value for that particular transmitter
and the counter value that was just decrypted are
within a formatted window of say 16, the counter is
stored and the command is executed. If the counter
value was not within the single operation window, but is
within the double operation window of say 32K window,
the transmitted synchronization value is stored in tem-
porary location and it goes back to waiting for another
transmission. When the next valid transmission is
received, it will check the new value with the one in
temporary storage. If the two values are sequential, it is
assumed that the counter had just gotten out of the sin-
gle operation ‘window’, but is now back in sync, so the
new synchronization value is stored and the command
executed. If a transmitter has somehow gotten out of
the double operation window, the transmitter will not
work and must be relearned. Since the entire window
rotates after each valid transmission, codes that have
been used are part of the ‘blocked’ (32K) codes and are
no longer valid. This eliminates the possibility of grab-
bing a previous code and retransmitting to gain entry.
