Customer:
I’m interested in purchasing remote controllers and possibly one of your programmers. I acquired an Arduino from elsewhere and can’t find the right library—all my inputs and outputs are mixed up.
Before buying, I’d like to know how these remote controllers are programmed. Is it possible to transfer a button from my existing remote—say, for opening the garage door—to one of your remotes, and set a different button for opening an external gate, so I don’t need two separate remotes?

Zainteresiran sam za kupnju daljinskih upravljača i možda jednog od vaših programatora pošto sam nabavio arduino iz kine i ne mogu naći odgovarajući library svi ulazi i izlazi su mi izmješani.
Pa me zanimalo prije kupnje vezano za ove daljinske upravljače, na koji način se programiraju i da li je moguće da sa postojećeg daljinskog prebacim tipku za otvaranje garaže na ovaj vaš novi, te na drugu tipku da postavim otvaranje vanjske kapije, da nebih morao koristiti 2 komada.

To make sure we’re discussing the same product: the 433MHz 4-channel remote controller works with a receiver that connects to a microcontroller like a Dasduino or Arduino. The microcontroller runs code using the appropriate library for that receiver, then responds to presses of buttons A, B, C, or D.
While I haven’t tested it personally, if you had two receivers (each with its own Arduino—one in the garage, one at the gate) and programmed one to respond to button “A” and the other to button “D”, you could use a single remote.
Here’s a useful tutorial on how to use this receiver: https://mechatrofice.com/arduino/rf-remote-controller-using-arduino-and-ask-module

isprike na malo kasnijem odgovoru. Daljinski sa prijemnikom funkcionira tako da prijemnik treba biti spojen na mikroupravljač kao što je Dasduino ili Arduino. Na tom mikroupravljaču treba imati kod koji pokreće biblioteku za taj prijemnik. Onda mikroupravljač na daljinu može reagirati na pritiske A, B, C ili D tipke na daljinskom. Ne mogu garantirati jer nisam osobno isprobao, ali mislim da ako imaš dva prijemnika (svaki sa svojim Arduinom, jedan u garaži i jedan na kapiji) i jedan isprogramiraš da reagira na tipku “A” a jedan na tipku “D”, možeš imati jedan daljinski. Evo dobrog tutoriala koji sam našao za taj prijemnik i kako se koristi: https://mechatrofice.com/arduino/rf-remote-controller-using-arduino-and-ask-module

Thank you for the response. My garage receiver was an original purchase and I don’t think I’d be able to reprogram it to capture one of these buttons. I know some remotes like this have the ability to copy codes from other remotes. I’m assuming that means I wouldn’t be able to do that with yours?
Here’s a short video showing that code-copying feature at the end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-k_XvkZ0jE
Could you just find out if your remote has that capability?

Zahvaljujem na odgovoru, pošto mi je prijemnik na garaži kupljen original mislim da ga nebih mogao isprogramirati da hvata jednu od ovih tipki, znam da neki od ovakvih daljinskih imaju mogućnost kopiranja kodova sa drugih prijemnika, pretpostavljam da bi to značilo da s ovim vašim to nebih mogao?
Evo kratak video, pred kraj se pokazuje to kopiranje kodova sa drugog daljinskog https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-k_XvkZ0jE
Ako mi možete saznati samo da li ovaj vaš ima takvu neku mogućnost

Now I understand your question completely. We do offer this remote controller: https://soldered.com/hr/proizvod/433mhz-4-kanalni-daljinski-upravljac/ which has that capability, as shown in the video. I’ve verified it.
