How to programme automatic gate remote control

Programming the remote control for automatic gates is essential to ensure easy opening and closing of the gate itself. A well-programmed remote control allows users easy access to their property. This improves safety and efficiency. In addition, proper programming reduces the risk of malfunctions and increases the lifetime of the gate automation system.

The importance of programming the remote control

For anyone using an automatic gate remote control, knowing how to configure or reprogram it is important. This can improve efficiency and security.

Whether you use a two-button remote control or a more advanced one, the right programming is important. This ensures that every command works smoothly. A poorly configured remote control, on the other hand, could lead to opening errors or unwanted blocking of the gate.

The programming system of LIFE Home Integration

LIFE Home Integration offers a remote control programming system that simplifies life for both installer and end user.

With the Digital LIFE board, programming a gate remote control has become extremely intuitive and user-friendly. Just press a button to programme the automation. This activates the desired functions. This speeds up operations and reduces errors.

LIFE uses a universal programming system for its products. This simplifies the work of installers. Furthermore, it offers a uniform solution for all automations. Thanks to a single programming interface, installation becomes quicker and less complex.

This system is also accessible to those without much technical experience, allowing automations to be configured in just a few steps. The same methodology can be applied to all LIFE products, saving time and reducing the learning curve.

The control unit has a built-in radio with memory for 1000 codes, operating at 433.92 MHz with LIFE Rolling Code and Auto Code coding. This guarantees security and easy remote control management.

Total Opening

1.                 Press the programming button on the control unit, the green LED (SX) and the red LED (A) light up.
2.                Press and hold the button (P1) on the remote control until all five LEDs light up.
3.                 Release the button. The remote control is now programmed for full opening.
4. 4.                 Wait 25 seconds or press the remote control icon again twice to exit. The remote control is now programmed for full

Partial opening

1.                 Press the remote control icon twice, the green LED (SX) and the red LED (B) light up.
2.                Press and hold the (P2) button on the remote control until all five LEDs light up.
3.                 Wait 25 seconds or press the remote control icon oncemore to exit. The remote control is now programmed for partial opening.

Automation is now programmed and activated in SEMIAUTOMATIC mode, which follows the sequence:

1.                 OPEN
2.                STOP
3.                 CLOSES
4.                STOP

Automatic reclosure is not active. The programmed key functions as a STEP command.

These simple procedures make setting up the LIFE gate remote control a matter of seconds, allowing immediate and reliable use.

Deleting a taught remote control

1.                 Press the remote control icon for 5 seconds, the green LED (SX) first lights up and then flashes.
2.                Press and hold the remote control button until all five LEDs light up.
3.                 Release the button. The remote control is now deleted.
4.                Wait 25 seconds or press the remote control icon again to exit.

Deletion of all taught-in remote controls        

1.                 Press the remote control icon on the control unit for 5 seconds, the green LED (SX) first lights up and then flashes.
2.                Press the button for a further 5 seconds and then release it, the first two and last two LEDs flash alternately.
3.                 After the alternating flash, all taught-in remote controls will be deleted.

These features allow optimal management of the remote controls associated with the automatic gate, especially in the event of loss or damage of the device.
