Creating a DIY Spare Garage Gate Remote Control from an Existing Working One

Question

It's about the remote control with which I open the garage entrance gate. I had two remotes included and one was unfortunately lost some time ago. Is having a working order one remote I can make some extra money (at home) spare set ? How to go about it? PS Unfortunately, it is no longer...

It is possible to make a copy of the remote control. You need to have a so-called zero-mark, i.e. a remote control from the manufacturer's shelf.
Unfortunately, there are several write procedures depending on the provider.
The second solution is to connect the controller, eg UMB 100 from ELMES, to the START-STOP button input of the gate.
Probably the latter solution will be faster and cheaper (2 remotes for about PLN 150).

Write what the pilot looks like. The copy is unlikely to be done. You have to buy the same remote control and program it in the gate receiver or buy a complete radio link with remote controls and replace it with the old one.

It turned out that the entire garage automation (purchased from a private home that no longer exists on the market) is a product of the Italian company CAME and the remote control is a fixed code system (frequency 434MHz), which has the function of the so-called "scanning" the code with the logical pilot of the same series.
So all I have to do is get a co-pilot for reasonable money and code it with the one I have!

430-440 MHz is the standard part of remote controls - if you live in Warsaw or close to it, I suggest visiting the Volumen exchange - there are people who make clones for little money 30-50 PLN, unless it is a remote control with some unusual system.
The company is called DRAGON - Jacek Okoń tel. 6473669, 503069921 - direction Wawa - data from September, but probably current

Since it's a fixed code, there is no problem to read the frame and sew it in prock. I made clones of IR pilots out of boredom - but it doesn't pay off at today's prices. However, sometimes they don't come across as universal. To the point - there are pilots for fixed code on the exchanges - you can easily choose - Krakow, Warsaw.

As for the question
I have been struggling with the same problem for a long time,
I live in a tenement house where the gate is operated by a remote control
Several families living with me live from the same gate
I got only one pilot from the contractor because he said that he did not need more, but he did not think about his wife, we drive two cars and this is where the problem begins!
we need a second pilot and you said that it is not possible to program another one because "it's not good" they will choke, if "it's not good" then I don't ask any more
In my opinion, you should rake leaves and not install gates and controls ... but

The remote control is on the HCS301 or MCS301 system
please help!??

If he says that it is impossible or something, you can always buy an elmes radio link + a 12-volt power supply, disassemble the existing remote and connect it to the buttons and if you live near the gate (up to 200 m), it will work.

ziomal · Answer

The HCS 301 system is an encoder of a rolling code, it is impossible to add a remote control. Unless the manufacturer will provide all the necessary data (manufacturer's code), which he doubts !? The idea with the radio link is good. The radio link will control the gate remote control and more remote controls can be programmed into the radio link. The question of the distance between the place of residence and the gate remains. Or maybe make an amplifier-transmitter for the remote control ??
