Step 2 –
In this step of the installation wizard you can select where the file is to be installed at on your com-
puter as well as which users on this machine will have access to the program. It is recommended that
you leave the file location at its default setting. Once the location is selected, click ‘Next’ to continue.
Step 3 –
This is the confirmation screen indicating that you are about to install the software. Click ‘Next’ to con-
tinue
Step 4 –

USING THE PROGRAMMING SOFTWARE
Global Configuration
The Global Configuration Settings are settings that will be programmed into all Table Genie units once the
specific table information is uploaded to them. These settings should be configured before creating any ta-
bles under the Table Configuration tab.
System Id
In order to prevent other LRS paging systems in the area from conflicting with your LRS paging system, your
pagers and Table Genies may be on a system ID other than the default of zero. To determine if the system ID
on your programming software should be set to something other than zero, look on the right hand side of
the packing slip included with your order for the field marked ‘System ID’.
If you do not have your packing slip for reference, contact LRS Customer Support at 1-800-437-4996 for fur-
ther instruction.
Repage Enable
Marking the repage enable field will cause the Table Genies to repage the pager up to three times. The Table
Genie will only repage if the request has not been cleared within the time you specify as the repage interval.
Cancel Acknowledge
When the repage field is enabled, you will have the option for your Table Genies to send out a cancel ac-
knowledgement page. With this feature enabled, a page will be sent to the corresponding pagers when the
page has been cleared and assistance is no longer needed.
In the example screen shown on the next page,, the repage function has been enabled at 120 second inter-
vals and will send a ‘Late Table xx’ message to the manager pager designated for this particular unit (man-
ager pager assignment is covered in the table configuration section) after the third re-page interval has
expired. If a page is cleared at the table unit at any point, the Table Genie will send a “Table Cleared xx” mes-
sage.

Long Range Systems 6Table Genie UHF User Manual
Low Battery Alert Enable
When enabled, this feature will notify the pager of your choice when a Table Genie’s battery level drops
below the specified threshold (threshold is in percent value).
Group Page Enable
Enabling this feature will allow pagers that have been previously programmed into groups to be called by
their group number simultaneously. Enabling this feature will not allow you to page any individual pager
numbers that have been programmed below number 100.
To program a Table Genie to page groups:
• Enable group paging on the ‘Global Configuration’ tab.
• When creating a new table (see programming Table Genies in the next section).
• On the ‘Table Configuration’ tab, enter the group number into the pager number field that a par-
ticular Table Genie or button on a Table Genie is supposed to page when a button is pressed.
Table Configuration
The table configuration tab allows for the individual programming of each Table Genie unit used with your
system. The individual pager or group numbers that are to respond to a button press as well as the message
that each pager receives when a particular button is pressed are configured in this tab.
To begin configuring your tables, click on ‘New Table’. Once you click on new table, you will see the config-
uration fields shown below:
Long Range Systems 7Table Genie UHF User Manual
Long Range Systems 8Table Genie UHF User Manual
Table/Room No.
This field is used to uniquely identify the Table Genie Unit being programmed. This is a free form field and
can be alpha, numeric, or alpha-numeric characters. The name given to the Table Genie is part of the mes-
sage sent to the pager when a page is sent allowing the person responding to the page know where the
page originated from.
Manager Pager No.
When the re-page feature is enabled (see Global Configuration) the pager number entered into the manager
pager field will be notified if a page request is not cleared within the designated three re-page intervals.
Mode
There are three different types of modes that can be set on the Table Genie. The definition of each of these
modes is as follows:
1 Button:
When pressed, each of the three buttons will send the same page. Only one pager number
or one group number can be alerted with only one message in this mode.
2 Button:
Only the outside two buttons can be programmed to send a page when pressed. In this
mode, the middle button is inactive. Only two pager numbers or group numbers can be
alerted with their respective messages in this mode.
3 Button:
All three buttons can be programmed to send a page. Three different pager numbers or
group numbers can be alerted with their respective messages in this mode.
Left, Center, and Right Buttons
Each button can be programmed to send a different message to a different pager or group. To configure
each button, type in the message and pager or group number that each button is supposed to alert when
pressed.
Saving a Configured Table
Once you have finished configuring the table, press the save button and the table will be saved to the table
configuration tab. You are then free to create the next table as needed.
Saving and Loading Your System Configuration
Once all tables have been configured and saved to the ‘Table Configuration’ tab, it is recommended that you
save your system configuration to a file on your computer. This will create a backup that can be loaded at a
later date if need be. Backing up your configuration will save you from having to recreate your table list
should something happen to your system.
To save your system configuration, click on the ‘Save Configuration’ button at the bottom left of the table con-
figuration tab. You will then be prompted to select a location to save the configuration file.
To load a previously saved configuration, click on the ‘Load Configuration’ button and select the configura-
tion file to be loaded.
Programming Pagers
The Table Genie will ONLY program LRS Alpha Pagers.
To program an Alpha Pager:
1. Go to the Program Pagers tab.
2. Type a Pager Number and All Page Number (default 911).
Optional: Select to Enable a Group, type a Group Number between 1 and 99, and type a Group Name.

3. Press Program
4. For battery operated Alpha Pagers, insert the battery. For rechargeable Alpha Pagers, remove the
pager from a charger.
5. At Programming Instructions screen, press Program.
6. User should hear 13 beeps for programming.

Cleaning Instructions For LRS Paging Equipment
Cleaning:
LRS pagers and equipment are made from industrial-strength, polycarbonate material. However, this ma-
terial is susceptible to hairline cracking if non-approved cleaners are used. When cleaning LRS pagers,
we recommend only using ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL-BASED CLEANERS.
To clean the equipment:
1. Take a clean rag and an isopropyl-alcohol based cleaner.
2. Soak the clean rag with the isopropyl alcohol cleaner.
3. Wipe down the pagers or equipment.
Cleaning equipment with any other non-approved cleaners can weaken plastic and cause hairline cracks.
Pagers and equipment that are cleaned with unapproved cleaners and suffer cracking will not be covered
under warranty.
Do not submerge any LRS paging equipment in any type of liquid as this will also damage the equipment
and is not covered under the standard warranty.
Should you have any questions, please contact the LRS Customer Service Department at 800.437.4996,
214.553.5308 or your local LRS dealer.

cluded in the manual in that alternative form, provided the user can reasonably be expected to have the ca-
pability to access information in that form.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful inter-
ference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined
by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures:
-- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
-- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
