Digi-Code DC-5070 300 MHz 2-Button Multi-Code Compatible Keychain Remote
The Digi-Code DC-5070 is a 300 MHz two-button keychain remote built for Multi-Code and Digi-Code fixed-code radio systems. It is a good fit when the installation has two separate 300 MHz receivers and the customer wants one small remote instead of carrying two transmitters. Each button has its own set of 10 DIP switches, so the two buttons can be coded independently for separate doors, gates, receivers, or entry points.
This is a fixed-code remote, not a learn-button rolling-code transmitter. It is commonly used with older Multi-Code style gate receivers, garage receivers, and wireless keypads that operate on 300 MHz with 10-position DIP switches. The major ordering risk is frequency confusion: DC-5070 is for 300 MHz Multi-Code style systems, while DC-5072 is the similar-looking 310 MHz Stanley-compatible model.

Common Replacement or Use Cases
- Customer needs one remote for two 300 MHz fixed-code receivers
- Replacement for a lost Multi-Code compatible keychain remote
- Older receiver uses DIP switches instead of learn-button programming
- Community gate plus garage application using compatible 300 MHz receivers
Technician Note
The DC-5070 and DC-5072 look similar in purpose but are different frequency families. Verify 300 MHz before ordering and match both switch banks carefully if the remote will operate two receivers.
Before Ordering
- Confirm the system is 300 MHz
- Confirm the receiver or old remote uses 10 DIP switches
- Confirm both desired receivers are in the 300 MHz Multi-Code compatible family
- Check whether the customer needs one-button or two-button operation
- Do not order for 310 MHz Stanley-compatible fixed-code systems
Professional Advisory
When replacing a transmitter on a gate system, confirm the property owner or manager authorizes code duplication. Safety devices and operator settings should not be bypassed during testing.
Important Ordering Warnings
- Not compatible with 310 MHz Stanley-compatible receivers
- Not compatible with rolling-code or MegaCode systems
- Button 1 and button 2 must be set separately if they control different receivers
Product Questions and Answers
Which systems does the DC-5070 fit?
It fits select 300 MHz Multi-Code and Digi-Code fixed-code receivers that use 10-position DIP-switch programming.
Can the two buttons have different codes?
Yes. The DC-5070 has two separate switch banks, so each button can be matched to a different compatible receiver.
Does this replace a Multi-Code 3070 remote?
It is commonly used in 300 MHz Multi-Code compatible systems associated with 3070-10 and MCS307010 references, but the switch format and frequency should be verified.
Is this the correct remote for Stanley 310 MHz systems?
No. Stanley-compatible 310 MHz systems use different Digi-Code models such as DC-5042, DC-5012, or DC-5072.
How is the DC-5070 programmed?
Set the DIP switches inside the transmitter to match the existing compatible receiver or working remote.
