I bought a RX480E dual chip 433mhz version, but I’m following all steps and it’s not connecting my controller. Am I doing something wrong?

Could you please give me your shopping link? Also, what set did you buy? I’d like to know if it includes a remote control.

Hello, I apologize for the delay in replying.

I have verified that the product link you purchased is not from our company, so I cannot test its functionality for you.

However, based on the video, it’s highly likely that the remote control is incompatible with the module.

I recommend that you purchase products directly from our company.

[RX480E 433MHz 4 channel RF receiver module with deconding DC3V DC5V by QIACHIP | User guide and Test](https://pt.aliexpress.com/item/1005007723184789.html)

Prioritize purchasing the kit that includes the remote control.

This will help you check if your existing remote control is truly incompatible with these modules.

This time, I’m recommending the RX480-4C single-chip version.

Functions are as follows:  
RX480E-4C Working Modes

Reset the module: Press the Learning button 8 times

Momentary mode: Press the Learning button 1 time

Toggle mode: Press the Learning button 2 times

Latching mode: Press the Learning button 3 times

Two Toggle channels + two Momentary channels: Press the Learning button 4 times

Two Latching channels + two Momentary channels: Press the Learning button 5 times

Two Toggle channels + two Latching channels: Press the Learning button 6 times

Two Latching channels + two Latching channels: Press the Learning button 7 times

If it never leaves [pairing mode](https://qiachip.github.io/qiachip/RX480E/RX480E-4C/QIACHIP_RX480E-4C/), check the press count: one press sets momentary, two set toggle, three set latching.

The indicator staying on means it is waiting for a remote. Then press any button on the remote once.

If a known-good QIACHIP remote still gives no output, the remote is the likely mismatch.

What does the indicator do after the presses? A photo of the remote label would also help us check it.
