FAQs

How many access codes can I program?

The TC188 supports up to 64 individual sets of 4-digit access codes.

Do I need an external receiver for it to work?

If you are using it with a TOPENS gate opener, an external receiver is usually not needed. However, for most third-party gate openers, the TOPENS ERM12 External Receiver (sold separately) is required.

What is the battery life for the wireless mode?

The battery can last up to 2 years with an average usage of 5 activations per day.

Is the keypad suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, it is made of high-quality, heat-resistant, and durable anti-deformation materials, and is weather-resistant for all seasons.

Can this keypad control two different gate openers?

Yes, the dual channel transmitter design allows it to access two different openers separately.

What type of power sources can it use?

It can be powered by the included 9VDC carbon battery, the gate opener's control board, or an external 9-24VAC/DC power source.

What should I do if I lose my access code?

You can reset the keypad and reprogram all desired access codes by following the reset procedure in the user manual.

Troubleshooting

Keypad not responding

Check the battery level or power connection. Ensure the keypad is properly paired with the receiver (if applicable).

Gate opener not activating

Verify wiring connections for wired mode. Ensure the correct access code is being entered. For third-party openers, confirm compatibility and the correct connection to the ERM12 receiver.

Wireless connection is unstable

Ensure the battery is fresh and properly seated. Minimize physical obstructions between the keypad and the receiver. Consider using the wired mode if interference is persistent.

Unable to program new codes

Refer to the user manual for the specific programming sequence. Ensure you are following the steps precisely, including any confirmation signals.
