Coder Remote

The Coda Remote is an object in the Generation 1 continuity family.

In his younger days, Alpha Trion was into gold-plating everything into his own personal bling.

The Coda Remote was a device created by A3 eleven million years ago to disable the Dark Guardians and enable the Quintessons' slaves to rise up against their masters.

Fiction

Generation 1 cartoon

During the slaves' attack on the Quintesson-occupied Hive City, the Dark Guardians had the rebels and several time-displaced Autobots surrounded. A3 returned from his own time displacement to the year 2006 and used the Remote, which was actually the golden Autobot symbol on his own chest. When activated, the Remote bathed the Dark Guardians in a golden light, causing them to severely malfunction. Forever Is a Long Time Coming
