Trainable transceiver system
First Claim
1. A trainable transceiver system, comprising:
- a trainable transceiver fixedly coupled to a vehicle interior element configured to receive a characteristic of an activation signal, to store the characteristic of the activation signal in a memory, and to retransmit the characteristic of the activation signal via an optical transmission; and
a portable transmitter configured to receive the characteristic of the activation signal from the trainable transceiver via the optical transmission, to store the activation signal characteristic, and to retransmit the stored activation signal characteristic.

Abstract
A trainable transceiver system includes a trainable transceiver fixedly coupled to a vehicle interior element. The trainable transceiver is configured to receive a characteristic of an activation signal, store the characteristic of the activation signal in memory and to retransmit the characteristic of the activation signal. The trainable transceiver system also includes a portable transmitter that is configured to receive the characteristic of the activation signal from the trainable transceiver, to store the activation signal characteristic and to retransmit the stored activation signal characteristic. The characteristic of the activation signal may be transmitted from the trainable transceiver to the portable transmitter by, for example, an optical transmission or an RF transmission.
