Output Formats
Transmitters are sequentially coded in either the industry standard 26-bit Wiegand format or custom Wie-
gand formats, with exact number sequences. As a cross reference the Transmitters’ internal ID number is
printed on the ID label found on the back of the Transmitter.
Specific coding details, including format, facility code, and ID range can be found on the Transmitter ship-
ping box, as well as the shipment’s packing list.

1. 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.
