Pairing a 433MHz universal self-copying remote control with a Sonoff Basic R3 - trouble

Best answers

How can I pair a 433 MHz self-copying universal remote with a Sonoff Basic R3 when the relay works from the phone but not from the remote?

You most likely cannot pair that 433 MHz remote to the Sonoff Basic R3, because the device does not appear to support radio remote control at all [#19945324] Even if the remote and Sonoff are on the same frequency, the Sonoff may expect a different code type, and the thread notes that Sonoffs operate on a fixed code rather than the kind used by some remotes [#19945018] [#19945021] The suggestion to pair buttons separately or reset the device did not solve the issue, and the user reported the same failure with another Sonoff and another remote [#19945010] [#19944944]

    Hi, I need some hints, I have a Sonoff Basic R3, I can't pair the remote (433MHz universal self-copy) - I press the button on the Sonoff for 5 seconds, the diode flashes according to the instructions, I click the button on the remote but without much progress. Control from the phone works elegantly but I care more about radio communication. Please help what I am doing wrong

    Maybe reset the Sonoff to factory settings and pair the remote control first, then the phone

    Did you know that you pair each button separately?
    Have you tried through the app to pair the remote, as if you were adding a device.

    Sonoffs operate on a fixed code

    These remote controls have a fixed code and I even tried a variable code for the gate, which also failed, both on the Sonoff and on a twin design.

Topic summary

✨ The discussion revolves around difficulties in pairing a 433MHz universal self-copying remote control with a Sonoff Basic R3. The user reports that while the Sonoff can be controlled via a mobile app, the remote pairing fails despite following the instructions. Suggestions include resetting the Sonoff to factory settings, pairing each button separately, and ensuring the remote uses a compatible code type. It is noted that Sonoff devices operate on a fixed code, which may not be compatible with all remote controls, particularly those with variable codes. The user confirms attempts with multiple remotes and Sonoff units without success.
