4. DOUBLE FREQUENCY DUPLICATE - For controls only

Double Frequency REMOCON (RMC-556)

This is the case where you need to copy up to 10 in the same REMOCON control (RMC-556)
distinct codes, which have up to 2 different frequencies.
The first step is to measure the frequencies of the controls to be copied.

Basically, in Double Frequency mode we will see an r and 3 numbers on the Display (e.g.: r111).
The numbers represent: FREQUENCY - KEY - BUTTON (See Figure 2).

What needs to be done to copy the different buttons is to find the positions 'rxxx' in the
We want to record the copy button, according to the frequency and position of the key.

In total, up to 10 different codes could be copied, since the remote control has 5.
buttons and also a key (See Figure 2) that can be in position 1 or 2 (upwards or towards
down).

If you do not need so many buttons to copy, you can copy all the codes with the key.
placed in a position (Example: Key up, position 1) and do not place anything in the codes for
the key in position 2.
Example:
Copy of a two-button alarm remote and a two-button gate remote

Let's set the key to be used above (rx1x). We will place the two alarm buttons (frec1) in
buttons 1 and 2. Therefore, we must reach the positions r111 and r112.
To record the gate buttons (frec2) we will look for positions r213 and r214.
Then calibrate the frequency of the RMC-556 with that of the alarm (1) using the right trimmer and the frequency of the
gate (2) with the left trimmer. (See Figure 2)
Remember that recorded in this way the control will work correctly with the Up Key.
