FIXED CODE DUPLICATING PROCEDURES:

1. While pressing the button 1 of the “WHY EVO”, at the same time press 4 times

the 2 button.

2. Release both buttons. Now the WHY EVO WHITE LED emits a short flash every 2

seconds.

3. Place the original remote control to be programmed in front of the “WHY EVO”, at

about 5 cm of distance (as shown in the picture).

4. Press and retain pressed the button of the original remote control and wait for a

change flash (as a faster flash) of WHY EVO WHITE LED and a change of its color

(BLUE) that confirms the correct learning of code. This step may take a few

seconds and during that the color LED is WHITE.

5. While the BLUE LED is flashing, press the button of the “WHY EVO” where you

want to program the code just learnt, and retain pressed until the LED switches

off and an extended sound “BEEP” for a reconfirmation of the correct code

learning. This step may take some seconds.

6. The copy has been happened with success. Now check on the automation the

correct functioning of the new WHY EVO remote control.

Notes:

• If the WHITE LED flashes only 3 times (of WHITE color) and switches off, the code

has not learnt correctly. Please repeat the operation from the step 1.

• The WHY EVO memory is completely re-writable.

• To duplicate further buttons of WHY EVO, please repeat the operation from the step

The provided manual describes the "WHY EVO" remote control, a device designed for duplicating existing remote control codes, specifically for garage doors, gates, or other automated systems. It supports both fixed code and rolling code duplication, offering versatility for various automation systems.

Function Description:

The WHY EVO remote control serves as a universal duplicator for existing remote controls. Its primary function is to learn and replicate the radio frequency codes from an original remote, allowing users to create a copy that can then operate their automated systems. This is particularly useful for replacing lost or broken remotes, or for providing additional access controls. The manual details two main duplication procedures: "Fixed Code Duplicating Procedures" and "Rolling Simple Duplicating Procedures," indicating its capability to handle different security protocols. It also includes a procedure for duplicating from one WHY EVO to another WHY EVO remote.

For fixed code duplication, the process involves a specific sequence of button presses on the WHY EVO, followed by placing the original remote in close proximity (approximately 5 cm) and transmitting its code. The WHY EVO provides visual feedback through an LED (initially white, then changing to blue) to indicate successful code learning. An extended "BEEP" sound further confirms the correct code learning. Once the code is learned, it can be programmed to any button on the WHY EVO.

For rolling code duplication, the initial steps are similar, involving a button press sequence and LED feedback. However, after successful code learning, an additional step is required: activating the correct procedure for the programmed model and inserting the new remote control into the receiver of the automation system. This suggests that rolling code systems often require the new remote to be "introduced" or "enrolled" directly into the receiver's memory, beyond just duplicating the code. The manual refers to a "compatibility list present in this manual" for this step, though the list itself is not provided in the excerpt.

The device is designed for user-friendly operation, with clear step-by-step instructions and visual/auditory cues to guide the user through the duplication process.

Important Technical Specifications (Inferred):

Operating Distance for Duplication: Approximately 5 cm between the WHY EVO and the original remote control. This close proximity ensures accurate signal reception during the learning phase.
Feedback Mechanisms: The WHY EVO utilizes a multi-color LED (WHITE and BLUE) and an audible "BEEP" sound to provide status updates during the duplication process.
- WHITE LED: Emits a short flash every 2 seconds during the initial setup phase. A faster flash indicates a change in status during code learning. If it flashes only 3 times and switches off, it indicates an unsuccessful code learning attempt.
- BLUE LED: Flashes to confirm correct code learning.
- BEEP Sound: An extended "BEEP" confirms successful code learning.
Memory: The WHY EVO memory is described as "completely re-writable," implying that codes can be overwritten or changed as needed, offering flexibility for multiple uses or updates.
Power Source (Inferred): As a remote control, it would typically be battery-powered, though the specific battery type or life is not mentioned.
Radio Frequency (Inferred): Operates on a specific radio frequency to transmit codes, common for remote control devices. The exact frequency is not specified in the provided text.

Usage Features:

Versatile Duplication: Capable of duplicating both fixed code and rolling code remote controls, making it compatible with a wide range of automated systems.
Intuitive User Interface: Relies on a simple button press sequence, LED indicators, and an audible beep for ease of use during programming.
Multi-Button Programming: Users can duplicate codes to multiple buttons on the WHY EVO, allowing a single WHY EVO remote to control several different automated systems or functions. The process for duplicating further buttons simply involves repeating the initial duplication steps.
Error Indication: The device provides clear feedback if code learning is unsuccessful (WHITE LED flashes only 3 times), prompting the user to repeat the process.
Re-writable Memory: The ability to completely re-write the memory ensures that the remote can be reprogrammed multiple times, adapting to changing needs or new automation systems.
"WHY EVO TO WHY EVO" Duplication: A specific procedure is outlined for duplicating codes directly from one WHY EVO remote to another, simplifying the process of creating multiple copies of an already programmed WHY EVO.

Maintenance Features (Inferred):

Re-programmability: The "completely re-writable" memory suggests that the device is designed for long-term use, allowing for updates or changes in the codes it controls without needing to replace the unit.
Troubleshooting: The manual provides a basic troubleshooting tip for unsuccessful code learning (repeat from step 1), indicating a focus on user-recoverable errors.
Durability (Inferred): As a remote control, it is expected to be durable for daily handling, though specific material or construction details are not provided.
Battery Replacement (Inferred): Like most remote controls, it would require periodic battery replacement, though instructions for this are not included in the excerpt.

In summary, the WHY EVO remote control is a flexible and user-friendly device for duplicating existing remote control codes for automated systems. Its clear instructions, visual and auditory feedback, and support for both fixed and rolling codes make it a practical solution for managing access to various automation setups.
