TOPENSTC196 Tuya WiFi Remote Control for Automatic Swing Sliding Gate Opener Garage Door Opener with iOS and Android App WiFi & Bluetooth Security Gate Controller

I was looking for a solution to remotely open my gate. This worked exactly as indicated ( I did need the ERM12 but that was indicated in advance). It only took minutes to install. Very satisfied

This device is located in my house over 300' from the gate and works well. Took several tries to set it up before I tried pairing it with the unit next to the gate opener. Then, once it was paired I moved it back to the house and it works great. I am also able to use with Alexa to which is super cool. Alexa, "open the gate".

I have this connected to my Topens CK700 motor. This is probably my most used solution to open/close the gate since I can do it while driving, or at the end of the day while I'm inside. It's placed 100 feet from my gate motor. I read other people's comments prior to installing it and didn't have much issue. Adding family members to the app so they can access gate operations is not difficult once you figure out how to navigate the screens. Connectivity is acceptable. I've tried to determine what will interrupt the connectivity at times without much luck. I have a Blink camera mounted by the gate so I can visually confirm the Wifi worked. Generally I'm well pleased with this and would recommend it.

Since our Topens swing gate opener didn't work due to a manufacturing flaw, we had to go for a different brand and had to throw this accessory away. Such a waste, really. Why can't manufacturers make these things compatible with each-other?

Great value for my gate ,that’s made a good job for the delivery

My topens front gate controller has been working as expected for several months, but it's sometimes a pain to hunt down the little 4 button remote control to open/close the gate. I found this Topens WiFi controller and decided to give it a try.The most important thing to know about the main Topens gate control box, with respect to this WiFi controller, is that it already contains a WiFi radio, thus allowing the WiFi controller to be located inside your house where it can receive a strong WiFi signal from your wireless access point, vs. having to put it at the gate and hope your WiFi signal reaches that far. As long as the WiFi controller is within a few hundred feet of the gate control box, they can talk to each other and viola!I mounted the WiFi controller in my garage, right next to a window that faces the main gate control box, and plugged it into a nearby outlet with the included adapter.To program the WiFi controller to talk to the gate control box:1. Download the app to your phone2. Follow the directions to connect the WiFi controller to your WiFi access point (ID & PW)3. Take the front cover off of the main gate control box4. Push the button that allows you to pair the gate control box with remote controls, the WiFi controller, etc. This results in a fast flashing of a red LED5. Push the A, B, C or D button on the app on your phone, depending on which button you want to control the gate6. Wait a few seconds and push it again. The red flashing light should go out, and the phone is now able to open/close/stop the gate by pushing the button you just programmed (A, B, C or D)The instructions refer to maybe having to remve the cover of the WiFi controller to reset it before pairing, but mine paired right away so no need for that. Only need to enable the pairing action from the button on the main gate control box.This now works just like my WiFi enabled garage door openers, light switches, etc. In my case, it's much more likely that I will have my phone with me when wanting to open/close the gate, than the little 4 button remote. And of course, you can operate the gate from anywhre that your phone is conntected to a wireless network.Slick.Hope it works for a long time.

The Topens TC196 WiFi remote control exceeded my expectations! Setup was quick and straightforward, thanks to the excellent technical documentation. It connected to my system effortlessly and gives me reliable remote access from anywhere. What really sets Topens apart is their customer support—extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and thorough. It’s clear they stand behind their products. I highly recommend the TC196 for anyone wanting smart, reliable gate control!

UPDATE JULY 2025 - Finally got the remote to work "somewhat". .the problem is NOT my cell phone. With the added WIFI extender, Another installer finally "jerry-rigged" an extra 12V battery, small Inverter, 10w trickle charger solar panel at the top of the hill @ 150' from house wifi. Top of hill to gate is now about 400' line of sight. Gate opens/closes from house now, but NOT any farther. Looses continuity. Installer looking for more powerful remote/// 2024. Received the wifi remote control package for Topens electric gate opener; however, unable to use and delay in trying to get it work work, I missed the return window. Our router is at 750 feet away from gate opener which is the outside range of being able to use it. We even purchased a wifi extender booster to carry the wifi to the gate, but it still wouldn't work. The installer tried twice over a period of two weeks and he is a pro with these. The problem finally came down to my cell phone -- it's a Samsung Galaxy and the installer's cell phone has 2 bars at the gate, but mine didn't have any, so we think it's because my cell phone isn't a higher quality. Gave the product 3 stars because of strange instructions that came with it, and had to use a couple of YouTube videos to get everything hooked up, only to find my cell phone wasn't capable. Be aware of the distance from router to gate and don't just have a medium priced/quality cell phone.
