Unless the documentation of the automation clarifies that, you would have to use a special device (frequency meter / frequency counter / frequency indicator) to see what the transmission type and the operating frequency is. Stores that copy remotes, frequently have such devices. The e-bay page, to which you linked, says "n° 1 Rolling Code 5-channels transmitter (Fixed Code on request)" so fixed code isn't totally out of the question.
The problem with the fixed code remotes is that they sometimes have been factory programmed with very "regular" patterns that can be easily repeated by other transmitters. If this is the case you must find a way to use another, more random code (you may try erasing the receiver memory and the registering another button of the remote you have).
For the moment, forget about the remotes until you eliminate the button as a culprit (by disconnecting it from the board and watching what if the problem appears again).
The control board documentation says nothing about maximum power for flashing or courtesy lights. Most control boards can handle at least 60 Watts even with two motors present. If you are going to use courtesy lights with even greater power, using an auxiliary (intermediate) relay is highly recommended. For courtesy lights you may also want to install a day/night sensor in series with the courtesy light output so that the lights stay off during the day. Don't forget to use cables suitable for outdoor installation (for example ΝΥΥ-O 2x1.0 mm2 or equivalent) running through conduit.
