This applies to both SMG-8112-SCS and SMG-822 models.

  1. **Learning Transmitter's Codes:**
    • Press and hold "LEARN1" or "LEARN2" button on the receiver for 2 seconds (for SMG-8112-SCS) or 1 second (for SMG-822). The "learn_led" light will illuminate.
    • While the "learn_led" is lit, press the desired button on your 433MHz remote control.
    • The "learn_led" will flash and then go out, indicating that the remote's code has been successfully stored.
    • Repeat these steps for other remote controls you wish to pair.
  2. **Erasing Transmitter's Codes:**
    • Press and hold "LEARN1" or "LEARN2" button on the receiver.
    • Continue holding until the "learn_led" light illuminates and then goes out. This action will erase all previously stored remote control codes for that channel.

4. Instruccions de funcionament

4.1 Working Modes (SMG-8112-SCS)

The SMG-8112-SCS receiver supports three working modes:

  • **Inching Mode:** The relay activates for a set duration (2-3600 seconds) after a single trigger, then automatically deactivates. This is ideal for momentary actions like opening a garage door and having it automatically close after a set time.
  • **Toggle Mode:** Pressing the button once activates the relay, and pressing it again deactivates it. This acts like a standard on/off switch.
  • **Latched Mode:** Pressing one button activates the relay, and pressing a different button deactivates it. This is useful for controlling two separate functions where one action cancels the other.

You can set the Inching mode duration within the Tuya/Smart Life App's timing options.
