1. A method for programming a transmitter comprising the steps of:
- audibly questioning a user, by the transmitter, to determine a type of system with which the transmitter is to be used;
receiving, at the transmitter from the user, a response to the audibly questioning step; and
identifying the type of system with which the transmitter is to be used based on the response to the audibly questioning step.

Abstract
A programmable transmitter that verbally questions a user with audible questions to determine a type of a transmitter being emulated. The transmitter receives indicia of the type the transmitter and determines the type of the necessary transmission parameters based upon the received indicia. For operator system types that utilize DIP switch programming, the transmitter provides a voice menu of possible DIP switch settings and the user responds to the voice menu. The transmitter receives responses from the user via buttons and/or the user'"'"'s voice commands.
