General Description
Rane Digital Remotes simplify end user control and eliminate
installer brain fatigue. All oer customizable backlit LCD
screens for intuitive end user labeling. All are available in three
colors to coordinate with surroundings: white, ivory or black,
and include a matching Decora® plate cover.
Home run shielded CAT 5e (or better) connections to a HAL
or EXP1 eliminate addressing, external power, and the need to
test the cables. e DR can be up to 300 meters (1000 feet) away
from its host. It mounts in a standard two-gang U.S. electrical
box.
Display screens are dynamic, automatically updating when
the available options change through preset activation, room
combining, and so on. erefore, the user always sees the options that are currently available. A DR2 works well for selecting
sources, presets, and room congurations. You can congure a
DR2 to behave in one of two ways:

• Single Selector: e control acts as a selector switch that
can select only one item at a time on the display screen. For
example, the display might show a list of background music
channels. Use the push control to select which channel to activate. is behavior is similar to a radio button in a software
application (as displayed in the image below).
• List of Toggles/Commands: e control acts as a switch for
enabling or disabling each item on the display screen. For
example, the display screen might list presets and the user
uses the push control to enable or disable each preset in the
list. is behavior is similar to a series of checkbox items in a
software application.
See the HAL Installation Manual or the Halogen software
Help for complete DR2 instructions. Information on HAL,
Halogen and peripherals is available at rane.com/hal.

Specification
e digital remote shall control either source or preset selection
(radio buttons), or a list of checkbox toggles and commands,
and be located up to 300 meters (1,000 feet) away from the
rack room multiprocessor. e digital remote shall have a
customizable backlit LCD screen for end user labeling of up to
20 controls with variable and automatic dimming feature for
superior visibility under varying light conditions. e digital
remote shall connect to and be powered by the rack room
multiprocessor using a dedicated homerun shielded CAT 5e (or
better) cable. Low communication data rates shall permit use
of punch-down blocks or RJ-45 patch bays for homerun cable
routing exibility as well as relaxed minimum bend radius. e
shielded CAT 5e interface shall transport power, ground and
a communications channel. e digital remote shall support
portable use and hot-swapping so that devices may be replaced
without reprogramming or shutting down the system, and do
so without audio interference. Within seconds, all settings for
new or existing portable digital remotes shall be automatically
downloaded from the multiprocessor along with the correct
rmware permitting repeated hot-swapping – even between
dierent vintage multiprocessors. e hardware-software
combination shall automatically check and display the status,
location, and CAT 5e crimp and wiring integrity. Hardware
and software troubleshooting indicators shall point out any and
all errors. e digital remote shall t into a 2-gang US standard
electrical junction box. e digital remote shall be available
in white, ivory or black, and come with a matching Decora®
wallplate.
e Digital Remote shall be a Rane DR2 connected to a Rane
HAL multiprocessor running Rane Halogen software.
