The Model RC790 remote coding unit works with the LED emitter, offering a convenient way to set up secure coding, perform configuration and run diagnostics. With a range of up to 8m, the remote coding unit eliminates the need to directly access the emitter in often hard-to-reach locations on a vehicle.
