Do I need a 'radio board' with Genius JA592

[benbrooks]

I'm just about to buy replacement parts for my broken automatic gate. I had a Genius JA592  which has failed and I used Genius Amigo remotes. It also has an old Videx B&W gate intercom/keypad/camera.

I have read the JA592 instructions and I cannot find anything about programming remotes in it. I can't see any plug-in module on the old JA592 motherboard (but maybe it got removed when it was dismantled - I can't remember) - I assumed that the facility for radio remotes was built-in to the motherboard, but as it's not referred to in the instructions, I'm starting to wonder if maybe not. Or maybe the radio receiver is built into the Videx keypad/camera module?

Can anyone tell me if I need to buy a new radio board as well, to work with my amigo keyfobs, and if so, what the part number is?

Thankyou.

Hi Ivan,

Thank you for your enquiry,

Out of interest have you tried swapping the batteries in your remotes as it could be an issue with the batteries inside the remotes have become drained and therefore not working.

Furthermore, I would check what is connected into terminals 9, 10 and 17, 18 on your control board as these outputs look like there is potential for a receiver to be connected in here.

I hope this information is helpful.

Many thanks 

Ben
