Long Range Systems
Long Range Systems is a provider of cutting-edge onsite paging solutions. We offer exceptional products and
services that satisfy our customer’s needs for years to come. Thorough familiarity with these instructions and
procedures will ensure proper operation and maintenance of the system.
Note: This guide should be kept readily available for managers and key staff.
General Information
The Guest Paging System is an onsite paging solution used to increase efficiency in operations by instantly
alerting patrons, clients, and guests of the availability of services. Additional staff paging capabilities can alert
management of immediate needs. The T7400A is used to page guest pagers (Alpha Coaster, Coaster Call,
Pizza Pager, Lobster Call, AdverTeaser), and staff pagers (Alphanumeric, Star).
Notice: Operation is subject to the following:
• This device may or may not cause interference
• This device will accept any interference including interference that may cause undesired operation of the unit.
Notice: To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and gain should be so
chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than required for
successful communication.

Cleaning & Charging Instructions For LRS Paging Equipment
Cleaning:
LRS pagers are made from industrial-strength, polycarbonate material. However, this
material 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.
Charging:
Place rechargeable pagers on the charger and let them charge for 8 hours prior to first use.
Rechargeable pagers should be kept on charge even during extremely long periods of
inactivity.
Only 10 VAC power supplies should be used with LRS chargers and transmitters. DC
power supplies will cause damage to equipment that is not covered under the standard
warranty.
Should you have any questions, please contact the LRS Customer Service Department
at 800.437.4996.
