Description
Operates in the 27MHz band, the KEY series achieves the highest possible standard of performance by using a crystal-controlled, frequency modulated (FM) radio signal. The onboard microcontroller uses the latest technology allowing for easy setup and installation while providing maximum security and reliability.
The KEY ring transmitter uses a LED light to indicate a flat battery status. The 1Hz flashing of the LED indicates a flat battery. The blue LED light will be “on” when the transmitter is activated by simply pressing the button on the front.
The KEY ring transmitter uses a high capacity (150mAh) 6 volt battery instead of the usual low capacity (30mAh) 12 volt remote control battery. This allows the user to use longer lasting batteries for more reliable operation.
Operating Distance
An operating distance (in conjunction with our FMR-.. series receivers) of 200 metres is possible.
The operating distance depends upon the receiver antenna and location. An independent test revealed the following ranges:
Range (m) |
Receiver Antenna |
Receiver Type |
Up to 50 |
300mm wire |
FMR-… series |
Up to 100 |
ANT27M |
FMR-… series |
Range tests were done in an open area test site with line-of-sight operation and the receiver antenna wire was fixed vertically, away from any metal objects.
Compatibility
All Elsema type FMR-… series:
FMR-201
FMR-212
FMR-212T
FMR-202

Block Diagram

Using KEY-302 and KEY-304
To use KEY-302 with a 2 channel receiver, and KEY-304 with a 4 channel receiver, just match the 10-way DIP
switch on the transmitter to the receiver.
Using 2 Different Receivers with KEY-302
KEY-302 can also be used with 2 different single channel receivers e.g. FMR-212.
Make sure the 10 way dip switch on the transmitter board matches the first 10 dip switches on the receiver. Set the receivers dip switch 11 and 12 as described below.
When Button A is pressed, Switch 11 is transmitted as “ON” (Dip switch 11 on the Receiver is up)
When Button B is pressed, Switch 11 is transmitted as “OFF” (Dip switch 11 on the Receiver is down)
When wire link is connected (Factory default), switch 12 is “ON” (Dip switch 12 on the Receiver is up)
When wire link is disconnected (cut), switch 12 is “OFF” (Dip switch 12 on the Receiver is down).
(see picture below for the location of the wire link)

Using 4 Different Receivers with KEY-304
KEY-304 can also be used with 4 different single channel receivers e.g. FMR-212. This can be setup as follows:
- Make sure the 10 way dip switch on the transmitter board matches the first 10 dip switches of the receiver.
- The receivers dip switch 11 and 12 configuration is illustrated below.
