Intended for security access control applications, Ranger’s wireless communications are based upon a secure, digital, anti-playback routine1. Ranger Transmitters feature one or four-buttons, each corresponding to its own Wiegand output on the Ranger Receiver. Each Transmitter includes an integrated red LED, used to indicate positive button press as well as battery strength. They are also equipped standard with a proximity module for use with Farpointe’s Pyramid Series Proximity™ readers. This allows the Transmitter to be used as a close-range prox-imity access credential2.2.0 Transmitter Layout1. Eliminates the risk of code sniffing and unauthorized duplication. As such, the Transmitter must be clicked twice to be learned by the Receiver upon initial Receiver power up.2. Formatting of the proximity module matches that of the Transmitter.1324LegendRed LedID LabelButtons 1 to 4Key Ring HolderFront Back

To replace the battery, follow the directions below:1. Unsnap the back of the case using a small coin.2. Remove the old battery.2 3. Insert the new CR2032 3 Volt lithium battery. Be sure the plus (+) side of the battery is oriented accord-ing to marking inside of unit.4. Replace the back of the case, snapping it back into place.5.0 Range3Maximum read range between the Transmitter and Receiver is up to 150-feet (45.7 m).4 Farpointe Data reserves the right to change specifications at any and without notice.© 2009 Farpointe Data, Inc.

The CR2032 3 Volt lithium battery was specifically selected for use with the Ranger Transmitter. When placing, only use this type of battery. It supports a relatively high current drain when used on an intermittent basis, such as when a button is pressed. This alkaline battery is widely available, and commonly used in electronic devices, including cameras. 2. Dispose of the battery according to local requirements. Recycle when possible.3. For best performance it is important that the Transmitter be used as far from interference sources as possible. These sources may include, but are not limited to, large metal obstructions, such as duct work and appliances, as well as mag-netic fields and radio emissions.4. The read range between the Transmitter and Receiver may be adjusted at the Receiver. As shipped, the Receiver is set for the maximum read range. This may be reduced to a minimum of several feet by an adjustment on the Receiver.
