How to program a universal remote. Faac is a recognized market leader in the production of automatic barriers, gates

The barrier is one of the elements of the access restriction system.

The modern vision of such systems implies automatic operation combination of these elements, including the presence remote control some devices.

The Came company is engaged in the production of such systems and their components. All devices are extremely easy to use, safe and affordable.

The quality of products is guaranteed by the system of checks adopted by the company. It involves selective testing at all stages of production up to release for sale.

radio control

Literally all devices manufactured by Came, which are designed to remotely control barriers, that is, multi-channel key fobs, transmitters, which can be called the collective word "remote controls", have several general characteristics and qualities.


The company produces several series of control panels for barriers, which are able to meet the requirements of both the private sector and large industrial enterprises.

ATOMO Series

Here, the client, depending on the needs, can choose both two- and four-channel versions. All these devices are suitable for use in environments with increased safety requirements.

The point is that here a special technology called "Rolling code" is the so-called dynamic code.

Rolling code technology is able to prevent all attempts to copy or rewrite signals. This became possible due to the constant change of signals sent from the transmitter.

None of them are repeated. The security guarantee in this case is guaranteed by the fact that the number of different code combinations is almost a third more than four billion.

Also, these devices have automatic detection codes going from transmitter to transmitter, and there is a transponder function.

Top EE Series

The most popular models that are used mainly in the residential private sector. As with Atomo, two- and four-channel versions are available to customers, which, in addition, have a transponder function.

Twin Series

These key fobs are ideal for controlling multiple access control systems at once. The technology is here secret code- "Key Code", which is able to prevent attempts to intercept the signal.

The maximum number of possible combinations, as for the Atomo series, is over 4 billion.

Model Top 432NA

This radio is designed to operate on frequency 433.92 MHz. Equipped with protection against signal copying, thanks to the multi-code function.

  1. Design. The device is housed in an elegant gray body that fits easily in the hand. The plastic lines make it pleasant to use, and the laconic design makes it easy to use - an LED on the top and two buttons in the center.
  2. Specifications.
  • Food - two lithium batteries CR2016.
  • Weight - a maximum of 16 grams.
  • Operates in the range from -20 to +55°C.
  • Operating range - from 50 to 150 m.
  1. Price. Depending on the region and the current euro exchange rate - from 900 to 1500 rubles for a 2-channel version and up to 2000 rubles for a 4-channel version.

Model Top 432EE

This version is released by the company as a modification of the most popular Top 432NA model. The main modification and difference from previous models is work simultaneously in two coding systems - TOP andTAM. This further enhances the safety of use. Otherwise, these devices completely replace previous models.

Here it is also provided signal interception protection, which is provided quite a large number code combinations - more than four thousand.

For the convenience of users, there is code definition function in automatic mode , which makes possible the extremely simple programming of one remote control from another.

The cost is slightly higher than the Top 432NA. You can buy it for a minimum of 1300 rubles and a maximum of 2500 rubles for a four-channel version.

How to program?

There is a certain programming algorithm, which in general terms will be the same for all Came remotes. The system is built in such a way that only one remote control can be written to the drive receiver.

When there is a need for additional ones, they will be copied already from it. If an attempt is made to write another remote control to the receiver itself, the first one and all that were recorded by copying from it will stop working.

This is convenient, for example, if the first remote control has been lost. Then you can simply purchase and program a new one, and the previous one will be erased from memory on its own and no one else will be able to use it.

This is an additional convenience of the system - there is no need to repeat the operation every time when programming a new device, holding open lid direct receiver.

However, this same feature is at the same time a hidden danger of the entire system. After all, having received a working programmed remote control for a short time, anyone can use it in order to set up their own from it in the same way.

Therefore, you should be careful about safety and prevent cases of working devices falling into the hands of strangers.

Brief instructions - programming key fobs on the control unit

  1. Open the cover of the control box and find the CH1 (PROG) button.
  2. When you click on it, the LED indicator located on the panel will start working.
  3. Further, to start programming the key fob, you must press the corresponding button on it without releasing the PROG button.
  4. After that, the indicator light stops flashing and starts to burn steadily.
  5. Such a signal of the LED indicates the successful recording of the key fob in the memory of the control unit. Then both buttons can be released.

The console obtained as a result of such an operation will be called master keychain. Everything next steps for the preparation of new devices will be carried out only with its help, without including the main control board and receiver in the process.

Copying TOP series remotes (432NA, 432SA) from the "master"

First of all, it is worth remembering that both devices must be sequentially positioned one after the other so that the first is the new remote control that requires configuration, and the old one - the “master keychain” - behind it.

The distance between them for the successful completion of the entire operation should be no more than 5 mm. You can just put them right next to each other. Only then does the programming process begin.

  1. On a new device, press both buttons and hold in this position until the LED indicator turns on and starts flashing at a fairly high frequency. This should take about 7 seconds. This means that the key fob is ready to copy the signal.
  2. The next step is to release both buttons on the same device (new) and press (briefly) only the one that will be programmed. After that, the LED should stop flashing and start to burn steadily.
  3. All further actions should be done fairly quickly - you need to be in time for the time while the indicator on the new remote control device is lit evenly.
  4. On the master key fob, press the working control key once. It is from it that the current signal will be copied or overwritten.
  5. After that, the LED should blink three times and go out completely. Such a light signal means that the signal copying operation was successful, and the new device is ready for operation in full.

You can increase the number of working remote controls, multiply them for a large number of users. To do this, repeat the steps that are described in paragraphs 1-5 of the instructions.

Dubbing a signal to Came TOP-432EE from a TOP-432NA device

As TOP-432EE consoles become more and more common, you should know how to set up this unit using the previous 432NA model.

  1. On the 432EE, two buttons must be pressed at the same time. Hold them until the LED indicator lights up with a constantly flashing light.
  2. Then release both keys and press one - the one that will be programmed.
  3. After that, the indicator on the new device should stop blinking, and burn constantly, with the same intensity.
  4. Within 10 seconds, while the LED is working, it is necessary to bring it to the programmable remote control from below and behind old model 432NA.
  5. On the master key fob, you need to make a single and short press working key. After that, the indicator should blink three times, which will mean the completion of the signal rewriting and successful programming.

Automation of barriers implies ease of use and comfort for users, which would be impossible without high-quality remote control.

Instructions for setting up the TOP 432 NA key fob are shown in the video:

Gate remote programming.Came, Faac, Nice, Dorhan, Professional, Gant.

The first step is to register the remote control in the receiver on the control board. All manufacturers of automation for gates have a different programming algorithm for remote controls, so there is no single recipe. Let's focus on the main manufacturers of gate automation on the Ukrainian market - Professional (GANT), Came, FAAC, Doorhan, Nice.

First of all, a small educational program.

In the systems of Came, FAAC, Nice firms, one remote control is recorded in the drive receiver, and then the required number of other key fobs is copied from it. If you try to record the next remote control into the receiver, the first remote control and all remote controls recorded from it will stop working. In cases where you have lost the old remote control, there is no need to delete it from memory - it will be erased itself when you write a new one to the receiver. A huge advantage of such systems is convenience - there is no need to open the cover of the electric drive every time if it becomes necessary to record the next remote control. But this system is very vulnerable - it is enough for me to hold your remote control in my hands for 10 seconds to steal a signal to my remote control. And this opens the gate to almost everyone who held your remote control (or the remote control of your employees). Let's say you decide to restrict access to the parking lot, put up a barrier and gave tenants 20 Came remotes (equal to the number of parking spaces). But after a couple of weeks, the parking space is again not enough. Why? Because employees give each other remotes for copying and there are several times more of them than were issued. And how to do this, you can read below.

And what is the way out? Install the Professional (GANT, China) or Doorhan (Dorkhan, Russia) system. The main difference between such systems is that the signal of each remote control is recorded individually in the receiver. The downside is the limitation on the number of recorded remotes in the receiver (depending on the model from 25 to 128 pcs) and the need to open the cover of the drive or receiver each time to record the next remote control. But such a system will not allow quietly multiplying clones. Recommended for businesses and car parks large quantity users. After all, you can’t have unlimited trust in all employees-users without exception, can you? A plus is the fact that the remotes of these manufacturers are also two to three times cheaper than Italian ones.

Press the "LEARN" button on the gate drive control unit for 1 second, the "LEARN" LED will light up. Press the button on the key fob, the LEARN LED on the control unit will flash and turn off. Your keychain has been saved.

If you need to record additional remotes, repeat this operation. It should be noted that a limited number of remote controls can be recorded in the receiver's memory (depending on the memory size of the microcircuit, the number of recorded remote controls can be from 25 to 128 pcs).

To delete all key fobs, hold down the "LEARN" button for 8 seconds. All keyfobs will be erased from memory.

How to program the Came remote 25 Euro


It is necessary to press and hold the PROG button (CH1) on the control unit. The LED indicator starts flashing (left figure). Press the desired button on the key fob. The LED indicator lights up steadily, which indicates successful programming of the control unit (right figure). Release both buttons. The board is registered.

Press and hold both buttons on the remote to be programmed (new remote) (1). The LED indicator on it will begin to flash rapidly (2). Release the buttons and press the one you want to program (3). The indicator should light up steadily. In no more than 10 seconds, bring the master key fob (programmed remote control) from below and behind to the programmable one (on which the indicator is lit) and press once working button(4). The LED indicator will flash three times (5) and turn off (6). To program other key fobs, repeat the operation. Thus, the automatic system can be configured to work with any number of transmitters with the same code.

How to program the remote control FAAC 25 Euro

To write the FAAC remote control to the drive receiver, you must simultaneously press the two buttons P1 and P2 on the control panel and release them when the indicator on the remote control blinks (after 1-2 seconds). Then press and hold the button on the receiver board - the indicator on the board should blink.


While the remote control indicator is flashing, you must press the button on the gate control panel that you want to program to control the gate leaf. Before releasing the receiver button, make sure that the diode is on for about 2 seconds (to confirm that the code has been saved). Now release the button on the remote control and the receiver. The board is registered.

But if you want to record more than one remote, do not try to repeat this operation, as the next remote (new) will be written to the receiver, and the previous one will be deleted. It is necessary to carry out the operation of copying the remote control. See below for how to do this.

On the main remote control (recorded to the receiver), press and hold the two buttons P1 and P2 at the same time, release them when the indicator on the remote control blinks (after 1-2 seconds).


Then place the copied (new) remote control opposite the programmed one as shown in the picture above. On the main remote (while the indicator is flashing), press and hold the button you want to overwrite the signal from. Now press the button on the new remote control that you want to program. The indicator should flash twice to indicate that the code has been saved. Release the button and repeat the operation for other proteins. Thus, the automatic system can be configured to work with any number of transmitters with the same code.

How to program the Doorhan remote

Before starting programming, it is recommended to clear the receiver's memory from the previously recorded remote control codes. To do this, after turning on the power, hold the record button of the remote control pressed for 10 seconds. The LED will blink for 10 seconds, then go out for 2 seconds and blink twice again to confirm that the remote control codes stored in the memory have been erased.

To record the remote control to the receiver, press and hold the remote control recording button on the radio receiver board for 3 seconds - the LED1 indicator on the receiver will light up. After that, press the desired button on the remote control for 2-3 seconds. To set up multiple remotes, repeat the procedure for other remotes.

How to program the NICE remote

There are two types of NICE remotes - fixed code (blue case) and dynamic code (black case)

Remote programming Nice Flo with a permanent code is done by setting two-position dip switches, both in the remote control itself and in the radio channel. Be careful - the variations must match. If you need an additional remote, simply spin the old pre-programmed Flo remote and set the switches to the same position. These are old-style consoles, very rare today.

Let's take a closer look at programming consoles with dynamic code.

Programming Nice remotes with dynamic code

On the receiver, press the key once (delay less than 1 second). On the remote control, hold down the key for 3-4 seconds, after which the indicator on the receiver will blink 3 times. This means that the remote control has been successfully recognized and written to the receiver. After that, the receiver will be in programming mode for another 10 seconds, during this time, by
If necessary, you can record several more remotes. After the time has elapsed (10 sec.), the receiver will memorize all the remote controls assigned to it and all the buttons on each remote.

You can also program the remote control remotely, using a previously recorded remote control. As a result, the button of the "new" remote control will copy the command from the button of the "old" remote control. ATTENTION! Programming a new remote control from an old one must take place within the range of the receiver

Press the desired button on the new remote control for 5 seconds, then release, Press (without holding) the button on the old remote control 3 times, On the new remote control, press the same button 1 time and release. The remote control button is recorded and performs the same commands as the button of the old remote control.

Remotes recorded in the receiver's memory, if necessary, can be deleted. To do this, you need to carry out the following operations:
Press and hold the button on the receiver, you must wait until the LED turns on 1 time, goes out 1 time, and then flashes 3 times, Release the button on the third flash of the LED.
If all operations are carried out correctly, then after a short pause, the LED on the receiver will flash 5 times.

Automatic systems for entrance gates make it possible to open the passage with the help of the control panel so simply and comfortably that in the event of a failure or failure of the program, many drivers no longer remember how to open the passage to the yard with their hands. In this case, you have to look for a duplicate of the gate remote control or remember how the device is programmed.

How to properly program the remote control

A properly configured device is a fairly complex device. When you press the button to open the gate, the sequence of signals stored in the device's memory is sent via a radio channel to the receiver of the automatic gate. In this case, the following happens:

  • The received signal is decoded by an electronic chip;
  • The signal from the remote control is checked against the signature stored in the memory of the control unit;
  • A confirmation about the operation of the gate is sent to the remote control memory.

Advice! Of course, for users, all the subtleties of work automatic system gate control is not necessary. It is enough to know how to program the gate remote control in order to make a duplicate of the device in case the original is lost.

For these purposes, you can order a remote control from the company that installed the automatic gate system, but it is easier and cheaper to use a universal key fob that fits your remote control.

Universal controls for gates and barriers

The main difference between a branded remote control and a universal device is that the latter does not have a precisely fixed radio frequency, as manufacturers of automatic gates do in their key fobs. A universal key fob can be configured to work in one of the few, approximately 10-20 types, compatible with the “universal” remote control models. So the versatility of such a device is slightly overestimated.

It is clear that you can use the universal remote control only if you program it correctly. For this it is necessary to rewrite control program from another console. You can upload the program to the memory of the universal key fob immediately after turning on the device. If you have not made the transfer within 5 seconds, the possibility of reprogramming is blocked, therefore, after turning on, you must immediately switch the "station wagon" to the programming mode by pressing the appropriate button, after which the device will emit a signal of readiness to receive information.

Next, we take the old proprietary device and press the "mode" button until we hear two short beeps, after which we press in turn the control buttons for opening and closing the gate. Successful transfer is confirmed by a three-pulse beep.

Each key fob or remote control has its own digital name, stored in the memory of the gate control unit, therefore, before starting to use a new unit, it must be registered in the memory of the control unit. To do this, press the button on the old and on the new remote control for three seconds, then remove the branded key fob, and on the new one, press again until a three-time signal appears.

Programming branded control devices

Each manufacturer of automation for gate control uses approximately the same command sequences and methods for programming the remote control. The difference can only be in the indication of the operations performed or the method of data exchange. Most often in remote control systems are used:

  1. Permanent control key, sewn into the memory block. The complexity of the key and the large length allows you not to be afraid of hacking the gate control unit with the help of foreign devices;
  2. Dynamically changing encrypted key. In this case, the control unit can send a new digital sequence to the control panel, which is used as an access identifier.

For your information! In simple Chinese gate control systems, the first option is most often used; in expensive Italian and German automatic machines, the second control principle is used.

Remote control for gates "Came"

For illustration, we can consider the procedure for transferring service information to a new programmable key fob using the example of the TOP 432 SA model. Today it is one of the most common options for a two-channel automatic gate control system.

Program transfer is performed in the following sequence:

  1. To begin with, we place the old and new key fobs at the most convenient distance, but not more than 5 m. On the new device, press and hold the first couple of buttons until the indicator starts flashing quickly;
  2. On the programmable remote control, press the necessary button, on which you need to sew the corresponding command from the old one, the indicator will light up with a steady light. Within ten seconds, press the desired command on the old device;
  3. If the transfer is successful, the new key fob will blink the indicator three times.

More complicated is the procedure for programming the Came Twins remote control with a dynamically changing code. In this case, before transferring the program, the procedure for registering the key fob in the memory of the control unit will be required. The transfer of information is carried out through the control unit. To do this, press start button on the old block and hold it until the indicator lights up steadily without flickering.

To get a code on a new remote control, you need to press the button on it only once. Further, the key fobs will exit the programming mode automatically.

Remote control for gates "Faac"

The Faac company from Italy is known for its systems for automatic, remotely controlled gates. The device programming procedure is not very different from the previous options.

For example, for the XT2-868 SLH model, information transfer is performed in the following sequence. First, on the old remote control, you must simultaneously press the first two buttons, for about two seconds. The remote control enters the data transmission mode. The new device should blink, thereby signaling the start of overwriting. Sequentially, first on the old one, then on the new one, we press the button that needs to be rewritten, after which the indicator should blink twice. All commands are transferred in the same way.

We program the key fob gate "Nice Very VE"

This model works using a statistical code. Before transferring service information, you will need to open the receiver panel and code the device in accordance with the location of the switches on the board.

First, press the first two buttons at the same time until the indicator lights up without blinking. We look at the position of the first micro-toggle switch, if it is in the “on” state, then press the top button on the remote control, otherwise - the bottom one. In this way, it is necessary to “sort through” all ten microtoggle switches of the board. To save the information, you must turn on the last switch for ten seconds. A blinking indicator confirms the recording of information.

Conclusion

The modern element base used in control panels and receiving blocks of gates is developing very quickly. Today, most service management functions are successfully performed using emulator programs on mobile phones, tablets or even game consoles. The only way to prevent possible hacking of service information is to use the most simple and low-power systems, the signal of which cannot be received further than 5-6 meters.

Remote controls for gates and barriers are the most convenient devices for automatic control of barriers. They differ in the frequency of the radio signal and encoding, modulation and other parameters. In order for a model of one manufacturer to open a barrier of another brand, all parameters must match. There is no single device for opening the barrier. They create universal devices that can open the fences of those manufacturers that are included in the database. In the previous one, we talked a little about universal key fobs for barriers, now we will consider them in more detail.

Advantages of universal key fobs

  • support programming 4-30 devices;
  • control several mechanisms on the automation of one manufacturer;
  • work in several modes;
  • easy to set up, compact;
  • compatible models support multiple frequency bands.

Principle of operation

The remote control for the fence of a particular brand works only at one specific frequency. The universal compatible device supports several frequencies simultaneously. Several codes from different manufacturers are programmed into it, so such devices are suitable for controlling several types of equipment. The instructions for the product indicate which devices and models of barriers it can control. Universal remotes for barriers can also be configured to control other devices, such as an intercom.

Universal remotes for barriers and gates

New Universal remote for the barrier must be programmed correctly. A universal product differs from a compatible one in that programming is possible only at one frequency, only one type of encoding can be recorded. Only in this case it will work adequately. To customize the operation of each button, an encoding from the original is written to it. The control system allows you to "remember" various programmed signals. The signal type and frequency must match.

The fence receiver receives the signal from the multifunctional console. The unique signal is checked against the base. When the data match, the barrier opens and then closes to its original position. Special filters keep the desired frequency unchanged so that the operation of the device is not affected by external factors, such as weather. The universal remote control for barriers is suitable for controlling up to 10 standard key fobs.

Transfer program code from one unit to a compatible all-in-one and changes can only be made within the first 5 seconds after the new remote is turned on. Initially, the desired button is pressed on the new device until a beep is received. Then you need to take the old device from the fence and press the button on it, holding until two short sound signals and let her go. Then, to transfer the program code, you need to press the button on the old device several times:

  • one is a step-by-step mode;
  • two - lifting mechanism;
  • three - lowering the bar;
  • four - stop.

Instructions for programming the remote control are usually included in the kit.

After pressing, beeps should sound in the amount that corresponds to the programmable control command. After about 2 seconds, you need to confirm the programmed command by pressing the button again until the first signal appears. Upon successful programming, three beeps should sound.

To add a new device to the control unit, you must first press the button on the new, then on the old remote control, holding it for 3 seconds. Then confirm the operation on the new device by holding the button for 3 seconds. 3 beeps will appear to indicate the successful completion of the operation.

On universal devices with light indicators, for example, Came TOP, light signals are used instead of sound signals. Only one copy is programmed into the new remote control, and the parameters are adjusted for the rest. As a rule, two buttons are pressed, which must be programmed on the old device until the blinking appears.

Then they press one button on it until an even glow appears and bring it to the new device and press the working button on it. The indicator should notify about the successful completion of the operation with a flash. In this way, work is configured various models for control on one multifunctional device with one code.

Types of universal key chains

Let's take for example the universal remote control Multi 4. The remote control can store data of 4 keys operating in the frequency range of 315-868.3 MHz. These are consoles of the brands Came, Nice, Hormann, Marantec, DITEC, FACC, etc. The price of such a console fluctuates around 700 rubles.

Models of the BRO console are available in two, three and four channels. They work on a 12V battery, have a light indication. Used in the 433 MHz band using a dynamic code, have a high range. The cost is from 1000 rubles.

Apollo keyfob is designed for automation consoles with various codes, can replace up to 4 copies. Suitable for gates and barriers. The model costs between 750-1200 rubles.

Jolly Open models operate at 433 MHz. Resistant to mechanical shocks, equipped with a movable keyboard. Stores up to four copies. The cost is 600-700 rubles.

TECH is a two- and three-channel device operating at a frequency of 433 MHz. Equipped with light indication. Compatible with Beninca models. It costs from 540 rubles.

DITEC GOL4 C and Transmitter are universal devices suitable for controlling any devices on DoorHan automation. They have 4 independent channels and a floating code with 16 million combinations. The cost is from 750 rubles.

TX2/4 consoles support combination with any models on FAAC automation. Support two modes of operation: Master and Slave. Only the Master is used to program multiple instruments. The model costs from 1200 rubles.

One-, two- and four-channel Intro device supports programming up to 30 remote controls on the Radio series automation. It can control barriers, roller shutters, lighting and gates. The cost is from 1200 rubles.

Turn on the device you will control. Brand code search is only supported by older TVs, DVD players, VCRs and satellite receivers. It is not supported on stereos, DVRs, and HDTVs (for those devices, use the different method described in this article).

  • The brand code can be found in the documentation for the remote control or on this site.

  • Release both buttons.

    Enter the brand code using the numeric keypad on the remote. While entering the code, keep the remote control pointed at the device.

    • If the code is entered correctly, the power button will blink once and remain lit.
    • If the code is entered incorrectly, the power button will flash four times and then turn off. In this case, repeat the described process. Make sure you are entering the correct brand code and that your device supports it.

  • Press the power button. Each time you press the power button, the next code (from the list of brand codes) is sent to the device. In this case, the power button will blink. Keep pressing the power button until the device turns off. This means you have found the correct code.

    • If you have entered all brand codes from the list, the power button will flash four times and then turn off. In this case, use the other method described in this article.

  • Press and release the "Stop ■" button. This will save the code in the remote and assign it to the button corresponding to the turned on device (that is, the button that you pressed earlier). If you do not press the "Stop ■" button, the code will not be saved and you will have to start the process again.

    Test the operation of the remote control by turning on the appropriate device and operating it with the remote control. If you are unable to control most of the device's features, use the other method described in this article.

    Finding Codes Manually

      Turn on the device you will control (TV, DVD/Bluray player, stereo, etc.). The device must support the use of the remote control.

      • The number of functions controlled by the universal remote control depends on the device.

    1. Press the button on the remote control that corresponds to the turned on device. For example, if you are programming the remote to control your TV, hold down the TV button. If there is no button on the remote control corresponding to the switched on device, press the “AUX” button.

      • After a few moments, the power button will light up. Keep pressing the device button on the remote.
      • Keep the remote pointed at the device.

    2. Hold down the power button while continuing to hold down the device button on the remote. The power button will turn off. Keep holding both keys down for three seconds. The power button will light up again.

      Release both buttons. The power button LED should be on. If this is not the case, repeat the described steps.
