Summary

Remote Machine Cloning Process

Initial Setup and Frequency Detection

Prepare the cloning machine and original remote to detect the source frequency.

Remote Positioning and Frequency Tuning

Place remotes correctly and adjust the cloning remote frequency to match the source.

Cloning Execution and Confirmation

Connect the data link, initiate cloning, and verify successful remote duplication.

This document outlines the "REMOTE MACHINE CLONING INSTRUCTIONS (STANDARD FREQUENCY)" for cloning remote controls using a "Remote King" cloning machine and an RCR10 cloning remote. The process is designed to duplicate the functionality of an existing remote onto a new RCR10 device.

Function Description:

The primary function of this system is to clone existing remote controls, specifically those operating on standard frequencies, onto a new RCR10 cloning remote. This allows users to create duplicate remotes for various applications, such as garage doors, gates, or other remote-controlled systems. The process involves identifying the original remote's frequency, setting the RCR10 to that frequency, and then transferring the button codes from the original remote to the RCR10.

Important Technical Specifications:

Cloning Machine: The cloning machine is used to read the frequency of the original remote and to initiate the cloning process. It features an "On" button and a display screen that shows frequency readings (e.g., "303.8") and cloning progress/status messages (e.g., "r--1", "P610").
RCR10 Cloning Remote: This is the target device onto which the original remote's codes are cloned. It is a fixed-code cloning remote.
Frequency Range: The RCR10 can be tuned to various frequencies. For frequencies up to 434MHz, a specific "jumper" setting on the RCR10's circuit board is required. The tuner dial on the RCR10 allows for fine-tuning the frequency. The dial is associated with frequency ranges such as 220-275, 275-345, 345-440, and 385-560x.
Data Link Cable: A data link cable is used to connect the RCR10 cloning remote to the cloning machine for the final code transfer.
Button Support: The cloning process supports remotes with up to four buttons. The instructions detail steps for cloning one, two, three, or four buttons, with provisions to skip steps if the original remote has fewer buttons.

Usage Features:

The cloning process is divided into several clear steps:

Preparation:
- Turn on the cloning machine by pressing the 'On' button.
- Place the original remote in the designated "Place remote here" area on the cloning machine.
Frequency Identification:
- Press any button on the original remote while it's in position. The cloning machine will display the operating frequency (e.g., "303.8"). This frequency should be noted down.
RCR10 Setup (Frequency Matching):
- Open the cover of the RCR10 cloning remote to access its internal components.
- Place the RCR10 in the "Place remote here" area on the cloning machine.
- While holding down any button on the RCR10, adjust its frequency tuner dial. The goal is to match the RCR10's displayed frequency on the cloning machine to the first three numbers of the frequency noted from the original remote.
- Important Note for 434MHz: If the target frequency is 434MHz, a specific "jumper" on the RCR10's circuit board must be moved to an alternative set of prongs. This jumper is located next to the blue tuner dial.
Code Transfer (Button by Button):
- Button 1: Press button 1 on the cloning machine to begin the cloning process. The screen will display "r--1". Hold down the first button on the original remote until "6-10", "A-10", or "P6-4" briefly appears on the screen. Any flashing on the screen indicates an error, in which case button 1 on the cloning machine should be pressed again, and the process for that button retried.
- Button 2: If the remote has a second button, the screen will display "r--2". Press the second button on the original remote. If not, skip to step 13.
- Button 3: If the remote has a third button, the screen will display "r--3". Press the third button on the original remote. If not, skip to step 13.
- Button 4: If the remote has a fourth button, the screen will display "r--4". Press the fourth button on the original remote. If not, ignore this step.
Finalizing the Clone:
- Connect the data link cable to the RCR10 cloning remote.
- Press button '2' on the cloning machine.
- A successful clone will be indicated by "P610" or "P6-4" displayed on the screen. The remote is now successfully cloned.

Maintenance Features:

The instructions imply that the RCR10 is designed for user access to its internal components (e.g., to adjust the tuner dial and move the jumper). This suggests a degree of user-level maintainability or configurability.
The troubleshooting guidance for errors (flashing screen) by retrying the button cloning process indicates a built-in method for resolving common issues during the cloning procedure.
The document itself serves as a maintenance guide for the cloning process, ensuring users can correctly operate the equipment.
