1) GENERAL OUTLINE

This guide illustrates the advanced functions of the

CLONIX

series receivers.

The CLONIX receiver combines its characteristics of utmost safety in
copying variable coding (rolling code) with the convenience of carrying out
transmitter “cloning” operations thanks to an exclusive system.
Cloning a transmitter means creating a transmitter which can be automatically
included within the list of the transmitters memorised in the receiver, either
as an addition or as a replacement of a particular transmitter.
Cloning by replacement is used to create a new transmitter which takes the
place of the one previously memorised in the receiver; in this way a specific
transmitter can be removed from the memory and will no longer be usable.
Therefore it will be possible to remotely program a large number of
additional transmitters or, for example, replacement transmitters for those
which have been lost, without making changes directly to the receiver.
When coding safety is not a decisive factor, the on-board receiver allows
you to carry out fixed-code additional cloning which, although abandoning
the variable code, provides a high number of coding combinations, therefore
keeping it possible to “copy” any transmitter which has already been
programmed .
Moreover, the CLONIX receiver can be used to create a system of
COMMON RECEIVERS (paragraph 7). The common receivers can be:
“Collective”, if activated by all the transmitters included in a common
system.
“Individual”, if only activated by some of the transmitters.
This way you can have transmitters which, for example, activate a collective
access point by means of key T1, and a private access point by means of
key T2 (Fig. 2).

PROGRAMMING

The transmitters can be stored in manual mode or by means of the

UNIRADIO

programmer, which allows the entire installation database to be

managed through the

EEdbase

software.

In the second case, the receiver is programmed by connecting UNIRADIO
to the CLONIX receiver, using the UNIFLAT and UNIDA accessories as
indicated in Fig. 2.
In case of incorporated receivers, make reference to the specific instructions
for the control unit.

for 1 sec.

Keys ............................................................................................... : Yellow
Power supply ............................... : 2 3V Lithium batteries (CR2016 type)

Receiver output channels:
-

output channel 1, if activated, controls a START command.

output channel 2, if activated, controls the excitation of the 2nd radio
channel relay for 1s.

3) ANTENNA INSTALLATION

Use an antenna tuned to 433MHz.
For Antenna-Receiver connection, use RG8 coaxial cable.

The presence of metallic masses next to the antenna can interfere
with radio reception. In case of insufficient transmitter range, move
the antenna to a more suitable position.

3) MANUAL PROGRAMMING

In the case of standard installations where no advanced functions are
required, you can proceed to manual storage of the transmitters.

Make reference to the specific instructions for the receiver or the control
unit.

IMPORTANT NOTE: ATTACH THE ADH ESIVE KEY LABEL TO THE
FIRST MEMORISED TRANSMITTER (MASTER).

In the case of manual programming, the first transmitter assigns the key
code to the receiver; this code is necessary in order to carry out subsequent
cloning of the radio transmitters.

4) RADIO TRANSMITTER CLONING

Clones can be added by means of UNIRADIO, and the only limitation to this
is the maximum number of transmitters the receiver can memorise.
Note: in rolling-code cloning, the level of safety of the code anti-copying
system is very high, and is the same as that of the transmitters memorised
manually in the receivers.
Knowledge of the cloning

key code

or the reading from the key transmitter

allow the operator to create additional clones by remote control, without
needing further information.
To create replacement clones, you need to have the complete receiver
memory data; therefore, if you plan to carry out replacement cloning
operations by remote control, you need to memorise the contents of the
receiver memory by reading it using

UNIRADIO

and entering it in the

EEdbase

database.

When assigning a specific key on an additional clone transmitter to a
specific output channel on a receiver, a predefined procedure is followed.
This procedure can be modified as required if radio transmitter storage is
carried out by means of

UNIRADIO

, or otherwise it is identical to the

procedure for the first transmitter, the one with the KEY TRANSMITTER
LABEL.
The keys on the replacement clone transmitter maintain the same association
with the output channels of the receiver as the replaced transmitter .

Code reading by means of UNIRADIO:
Connect UNIRADIO to the receiver using the accessories previously
described, and then:
1) Switch

UNIRADIO

on and wait for the welcome message.

2) Use the

<arrow up>

and

<arrow down>

keys to select item

<go the

menu number>

3) Press

<enter>

5) When in the subsequent menu, type number

225

and press

<enter>

6) Follow the instructions appearing on the

UNIRADIO

display.

Code reading from the control units with incorporated receiver and
display:

Use the +/- keys to enter the “RADIO” menu, press OK and then select the
“CODRX” submenu.
Each time the OK key is pressed, the receiver code is displayed cyclically,
divided in two groups of four characters each and one group of two
characters (ex. COD RX - OK - 1A9C - OK - 22FD - OK - 01). The + and -
keys must be pressed simultaneously to exit the code display.

Having carried out key code reading, you are advised to write it down
on the appropriate card supplied and given to the user (Fig.3).
