Do you need to program them in order to make them work?

No...they worked with each of the three I received...I'd be curious to know if I bought some more, if they would would work with the new ones...??? I would think so...hmmm...well see :)

No, as long as you are communicating with identical Retevis radios. They come pre-programmed with their own set of frequencies. The probl I had was reprogramming them to work with another set. But between other Retevis radios, they work great!

no sir you do not. If by program you mean select a channel or frequency to communicate on then yes but this easy to do via an adjustable knob on the top of the device. there is a total of 16 channels.

if you have someone who can reprogram it to make it work YES. as far as i know/experienced NO it does not work.

You can program them any way you want. The only limitation is no more than three remotes can operate the same switch. One control can operate any number of outlets.

You will need to reprogram the remotes, you may have deleted them while going through the programming functions. Do read the Manual thoroughly before programming.

They come with batteries ready to use and you will have to program the new ones as well as any you presently have will require reprogramming at the same time. I had two original and two new ones and it only took a few minutes to program all four together. Any that you don't program, either old or new will not work any more.

You don't really "program it" but set up the unit to understand what models of units and which inputs and outputs attach everything together. Then the unit issues the commands to power on and activate the proper inputs and outputs. The website has tens of thousands of devices in its database.

Yes, the codes programmed in will work. If your internet is spotty you may have trouble using some features like locking/unlocking remotely. If your home network (i.e., your wireless connection from your router) you may not be able add new codes and programmed actions may not work.

I can not answer your question because I could not get them to work.Maybe you can tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Yes but it has to be programmed properly. You will need a castle link to program it

Yes, you can program it, but if you've never done it before I recommend stopping by your local auto alarm installation center to have then program your keyfobs for you. You'll need to program all of your alarm keyfobs at the same time.

If they worked, they would (some people say they do, but in my case they did absolutely nothing). Not worth risking the investment unless you can get them real cheap.

They sure do! Plug and play. There's a paper tab you pull out from the where the on/off switch is and then when that's done, they'll be ready to use.

You can. You'll have to manually program it for what you want to do though.

You will need to reprogram originals at same time of new set.instructions will explain.

We had no trouble programming them. We set them all to the same channel. They are loud and clear - much better than our previous ones. I couldn't tell you as we only use them on our school campus which isn't very large.

No. For that you would need something like the Harmony remotes (which are a huge pain to program).

Only if you program them for FMRS frequencies. Your best bet is a cheap set from a box store already programmed for FMRS or MURS. These must be programmed and are easy to get into trouble using if you aren't familiar with the spectrums regulated by the FCC.
