HOW TO PROGRAM THE RANGER 8600E
The Ranger 8600E can be placed into the "Program" mode by either of the following methods.
Enter the 4 digit "Go To Program" access code (locations 28-31). At initial power-up the code in these slots is
[9][7][1][3]. The Ranger 8600E must be disarmed to gain access to programming with this code.
Plug the optional Caddx Model 8950 programmer into the 4-pin male outlet marked "Program" on the Ranger 8600E
P.C. Board. See figure 3 on page 8.
When the system keypad is utilized for programming (as described by method 1 above), the Ranger 8600E will be in the
"Program" mode, and the yellow LED's will display the data in location 000. The data is displayed using a Binary system.
With this system:
The zone 1 LED equals "1" when illuminated.
The zone 2 LED equals "2" when illuminated.
The zone 3 LED equals "4" when illuminated.
The zone 4 LED equals "8" when illuminated.
Examples:
1. If the data in location 000 is "9", the LED for zone 1 (=1) and zone 4 (=8) would be illuminated. By adding the two
values together, (1+8=9) you would determine that the data in location 000 is "9".
2. If the data in location 000 is "6", the LED for zone 2 (=2) and zone 3 (=4) would be added (2+4=6) indicating the
data in that location to be "6".
3. If no LED's are illuminated, the location contains a "0".
To advance from location 000 through 255, press the [#] key. To go to a specific location, enter the location number
followed by the [#] key. The yellow LED's will then display the data in that location. Data is changed by entering a number
from 0 to 15 followed by [
U
] (
U
= data enter). Review the examples in figure 2 on page 8.
When using the optional Caddx Model 8950 Programmer, the programming keystrokes will be the same as with the system
keypad. The Caddx 8950, however, has the ability to display the location number and the data on the numeric display. See
figure 3 on page 8.
