PCR43301RE
1 Channel Penta Series Standalone Receiver. PCR43301RE
The PCR43301RE receiver is an advanced solution designed for seamless integration with both “PentaFOB®” and “PentaCODE®” remotes. Its compact size allows for easy installation within existing automatic gate openers, garage door controls and a variety of other applications where wireless signal transmission is essential. Whether you need to control lighting, manage security shutters, solar inverter grid setup or automate other systems, this receiver offers a versatile and reliable option.
One of the standout features of the PCR43301RE is its compatibility with the PentaCODE® dual coding system. This system provides installers with the flexibility to choose between the traditional 12-way dip switch coding method and an encrypted coding option, which boasts over 17 billion possible code combinations. This dual coding capability ensures that the receiver can meet a wide range of security needs, from simple to highly secure configurations.
For those who prefer the straightforward 12-way dip switch method, setup is as simple as matching the dip switch positions on both the keyring remote and the receiver. This method is quick, reliable and ideal for applications where ease of use is a priority. On the other hand, if enhanced security is needed, the encrypted coding option offers a robust solution. To activate this mode, simply turn all the 12-way dip switches to the OFF position. This automatically puts the receiver into encrypted mode. Detailed instructions are available to guide you through the encrypted coding process, ensuring a smooth and secure setup.
In summary, the PCR43301RE receiver combines compact design with versatile coding options, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of wireless control applications.

Elsema: Frequently Asked Questions
What is the PCR43301RE receiver?
The PCR43301RE is a compact, 1-channel wireless receiver that utilizes 433MHz frequency hopping technology. It is designed to act as a standalone receiver for automatic gates, garage doors, and various home or industrial automation tasks.
How does Frequency Hopping technology benefit the user?
The PCR43301RE operates within the 433MHz frequency band using Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS). This technology ensures that the signal hops between different frequencies, making the system virtually immune to interference and radio jamming, which is a common issue for standard fixed-frequency remotes.
Which remotes are compatible with this receiver?
The PCR43301RE is a dual-coding receiver, making it compatible with both Elsema’s PentaFOB® and PentaCODE® series remotes.
Can I choose between different output modes?
Yes. The receiver features user-selectable modes including Momentary, Latching, and Delayed Off.
- Momentary: The relay is active only while the button is pressed.
- Latching: One press turns the device ON, and the next press turns it OFF.
- Delayed Off: The relay stays on for a set time after the signal is received.
How many remotes can I program into this receiver?
The PCR43301RE offers unlimited remote storage. This makes it an excellent choice for high-traffic or multi-user sites, such as apartment complexes or commercial car parks, where a large number of users need access.
What are the power requirements for the PCR43301RE?
This receiver is designed for versatility, operating on a wide supply voltage range of 12 to 24 Volts AC or DC. This allows it to be powered by most standard gate motors, garage door openers, or dedicated 12V/24V power packs.
What is the relay output capacity?
The receiver is equipped with a high-quality change-over relay output rated at 8 Amps at 240VAC. This allows it to switch significant electrical loads, such as garden lighting or small motors, directly through the relay contacts.
What is the wireless range of the system?
While the range depends on the transmitter used and environmental factors, the PCR43301RE typically achieves up to 100 metres with PentaFOB® remotes and up to 200 metres with PentaCODE® transmitters. Range can be further extended using an external antenna like the Elsema ANT433S.
How do I switch between DIP switch and Encrypted coding?
The receiver automatically switches to Encrypted Mode if all 12 DIP switches are set to the OFF position. If any of the switches are ON, the receiver defaults to the classic DIP switch coding method.
What are the dimensions of the enclosure?
The PCR43301RE is designed to be ultra-compact, with enclosure dimensions of 70 x 55 x 25 mm. This small footprint allows it to be tucked away inside most existing gate motor housings or garage door opener covers without obstructing other components.
