Remote Control
The Ranger EZ comes standard with a wireless remote control; however,
MPH also offers a wired version of the remote control and a rugged
motorcycle version.
The battery-powered wireless remote uses two replaceable AA alkaline
batteries, and is an infrared device; much like the one that comes with a
television. In order to get the most use out of your wireless remote please
try to avoid storing it with any buttons or keys depressed as this will drain
the batteries. In the event that the batteries are drained you may purchase
new AA batteries at any local retailer.
Both the standard wireless remote and the optional wired remote have
identical buttons and keys and neither one require any user action to power
them either on or off. The buttons and keys are separated by a heavy line in
the middle of the label.
The rugged motorcycle remote functions in the same manner as both the
wired and wireless remotes and features a metal housing. The motorcycle
remote is only available in a wired version and come with large colored
buttons for easy identification and use.
Operating mode buttons
Both the standard wireless and the optional wired remotes feature a
contoured soft raised rubber five button cluster that cradles the operators
thumb in the center cluster. This allows for easy control of the most
commonly used buttons and allows the officer to keep his/her eyes on the
road while driving. All of these rubber buttons are backlit for ease of use at
night.
