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, EXP or CP66 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.
e DR3 is extremely exible, as it can control both selection and volume. You can think of the DR3 as two dierent
remotes—a selector and a level. One knob makes a selection, the
other knob changes the volume. 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.

HAL System Applications
Halogen software lets you congure a DR3 in one of three ways:
• Single Level & Selector: Control level and selection from the
same remote. For example, you could use a DR3 to select the
background music source and control the volume in a room.
• Single Level & List of Toggles/Commands: is option
allows you to control a single level and multiple other items.
For example, you could use a DR3 to control the volume in a
room as well as activate/deactivate one or more listed presets
that change the audio and control parameters for the room.
• List of Levels: Choose and adjust multiple levels. For example,
you could use a DR3 to control the volume in multiple rooms
or zones from a single DR located at a hostess station or in a
manager's oce.
See the HAL Installation Manual or the Halogen software
Help for complete DR3 instructions. Information on HAL,
Halogen and peripherals is available at rane.com/hal.

control and be located up to 300 meters (1,000 feet) away from
the multiprocessor. e digital remote shall have a customizable
backlit LCD screen for end user labeling of up to 20 controls
with variable and automatic backlight 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. is
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. 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.
