Hi,
I've build a simple encoder/decoder circuit, as shown in the official data sheet:
https://www.electro-tech-online.com/custompdfs/2012/06/DSA-468017.pdf
It all seems to be working fine, it's just that it doesn't really. The transmitter is transmitting something, the decoder is receiving something. The decoder can be reset, that is: made to forget all stored encoders. But I can't get it to complete the "learn" process described here:
I get stuck in item 3: The led never turns off. This would seem to indicate that the decoder never receives a proper signal. However, I can see on my oscilloscope that it is getting some digital signal on its input pin.
Suggestions?
Thanks!

1. Press briefly and release the learn switch
2. The status LED will illuminate while the switch is pressed and remain on when released.
3. Operate the transmitter encoder once, status LED on the decoder will extinguish
4. Operate the transmitter encoder a second time, status LED on the decoder will flash
5. After the status LED has stopped flashing the transmitter has been successfully taught to the decoder
6. This transmitter will now operate the system
I get stuck in item 3: The led never turns off. This would seem to indicate that the decoder never receives a proper signal. However, I can see on my oscilloscope that it is getting some digital signal on its input pin.
