Find universal remote assistance for frequency support
Hello everyone, my mom installed an electric gate and it came with a Beninca "to.go" controller (the attached picture shows the correct one). She opted to save money by using a generic remote instead of purchasing several original units. The Beninca model lists various frequencies, but they differ from the A/315 MHz found on the generic Chinese version. I followed the instructions at https://www.aliexpress.com/i/4000742339705.html. I’m unable to test them yet, but I wanted to clarify upfront: I photographed the inside of the Beninca remote box and noticed the frequency differences. Since these vary, it seems the generic remote likely isn’t compatible with our door. Please let me know if you have any advice. Image of the remotes: left side shows a generic Chinese unit from XXYK, right side is the one that came with the door.
433/868 refers to European standards, while 315 is prohibited there, meaning it won’t function. A standard remote might not connect unless it matches their specific protocol.
It will be a single frequency, so choose the correct one. Verify which model you have and select a compatible option. The mention of a rolling code indicates it should support that feature, but if not listed on the generic remote, it probably won't work. The phrase "Advanced Rolling Code" suggests it's likely a proprietary system rather than standard rolling code.
The video explains that the longer transmission code (128-bit compared to the current 64-bit) ensures the highest level of security. This makes me less sure about any alternative.
