I would appreciate it if someone could direct me to the programming instructions or a manual for the AutoMate AM2 keyless entry system.  Thanks.

System Features Learn Routine
The System Features Learn Routine dictates how the unit operates. It is possible to access and
change any of the feature settings using the Valet®/Program switch.
To enter the learn routine:
1. Key. Turn the ignition on and then back off.
2. Choose. Within 10 seconds, press and release the Valet®/Program switch the number of times corresponding to the feature number you want to program. (See Feature Menus.) Once the Valet®/Program switch has been pressed and released the desired number of times, press it once more and hold it. After a second, the LED will flash and the horn will honk according to the feature you have accessed.
3. Transmit. The transmitter is used to select the desired setting. As shipped,the unit is configured to the LED ON/1 chirp settings. These are the default settings. Pressing the lock button will move settings back to the LED ON/1 chirp setting. The LED will light solid (stop flashing) to indicate the setting. The horn will honk once (if connected). Pressing the unlock button will change the setting to the LED OFF setting. The LED will go out indicating the change and the horn will honk twice (if connected). Features with more than two setting options, please see note below.
4. Release. The Valet®/Program switch can now be released.
For example, to program the arming mode from active to passive, within 10 seconds of turning the ignition off, and press and release the Valet/Program switch once. Then press it again and hold it.
The LED will flash in groups of one and the horn will honk once (if connected). While holding the Valet®/Program switch, press the unlock button. The LED will continue to flash twice. The horn will honk twice if connected. Passive arming is now programmed. If that was not the desired setting,without releasing the Valet®/Program switch, press the lock button. The LED will light solid and the horn will honk once if connected. Active arming is now programmed. Release the Valet®/Program switch after the selection has been made. You can advance from feature to feature by pressing and releasing the Valet®/Program switch the
number of times necessary to get from the feature you just programmed to the feature you wish to access. For example, if you just programmed Feature 2 and you next want to program Feature 3 to off, release the Valet®/Program switch. Press and release it once to advance from Feature 2 to Feature 3. Then press it once more and hold it. The LED will flash in groups of three and the horn will honk three times (if connected) to confirm that you have accessed Feature 3. The learn routine will be exited if:
➤The ignition is turned on.
➤The Valet/Program switch is pressed too many times.
➤More than 15 seconds elapses between programming steps.
One long horn honk (if connected) indicates that the Learn Routine has been exited.
