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

✨ 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.
