2. Compatibility and Supported IC Codes

For successful cloning, your original remote control must meet the following conditions:

• The original remote control must be in normal working condition.
• The original remote control transmitter frequency must be 433.92MHz.
• The coding chip of the original remote control must be a fixed or learning code type, and identifiable.

Supported IC Codes:

• 2260 series (e.g., PT2260, SC2260, HS2260 LX2260, HX2260)
• 2262 series (e.g., PT2262, SC2262, LX2262, HS2262, HX2262)
• PT2264, PT2240 (LX2240 LX2241 SCL2240)
• HT680, HT6207, HT6010, HT6012, HT6013, HT6014, HT12D, HT46F49E, PIC16F630
• SMC5326 series, SC5262, SMC918, SM5028S series, 527 series, 1527 series, 2240 series.

3. Programming Instructions

This section details the steps to program your Gantch Universal Remote Key Fob. Ensure your original remote is functional before proceeding.

3.1. Clear Existing Code

3.2. Copying Code from Original Remote (Fixed/Learning Code)

1. Place your original remote and the universal remote side-by-side, approximately 2-3 cm apart.
2. Press and hold the desired button on the universal remote where you want to store the code. The LED on the universal remote will emit a quick flash every 2 seconds.
3. While still holding the button on the universal remote, press and hold the corresponding button on your original remote.
4. Continue holding both buttons until the LED on the universal remote starts to flash quickly (multiple flashes per second). This indicates successful code copying.
5. Release both buttons. The code is now stored.

3.3. Programming to Garage Door Opener (Learn Button Method)

After copying the code to the universal remote, an additional step is required for garage door openers that use a "LEARN" button on the opener unit itself.

1. Locate the "LEARN" button on your garage door opener's mechanical unit. The LED on the opener should be ON.
2. Press the "LEARN" button on your garage door opener.
3. Immediately press the same button you programmed on the universal remote.
4. The lights on your garage door opener should either flash or go on/off, depending on the brand of the opener, indicating successful programming.

3.4. Specific Programming for BFT Brand Remotes

For BFT brand remotes, a slightly different copying method is used to transmit the seed code.

1. First, clear the existing code on the universal remote as described in Section 3.1.
2. Place the original BFT remote in front of the universal remote.
3. Press the button on the original BFT remote that you want to copy. The universal remote's LED will turn on with a fixed light and then emit a double flash every 2 seconds.
4. To transmit the seed code, press buttons 1 and 2 simultaneously on the original BFT remote.
5. The universal remote's LED will flash quickly.
6. Press the button on the universal remote where you want to store the code. The LED will turn off, indicating successful copying.
7. Finally, take the universal remote to your garage door opener receiver and activate the LEARN button to insert the new remote on the receiver.

5. Troubleshooting

• Copying Issues: If the copy process is not successful, ensure the original remote's frequency is 433.92MHz and its working chip is a fixed or learning code. Rolling code remotes may not be fully compatible.
• Indicator Light Behavior: If the indicator light on the universal remote does not flash as expected during clearing or copying, ensure you are holding the buttons correctly and for the appropriate duration. Repeat the clearing process if necessary.
• Garage Door Opener Not Responding: Verify that the "LEARN" button on your garage door opener is correctly activated and that its indicator light is on before attempting to program the universal remote.
• Technical Support: If you encounter persistent technical problems, please contact Gantch customer support for assistance.
