Working with Smart Remotes
Smart Remote Overview
Smart Remotes are configured within Drag Net 4 and higher. The follow-
ing sections describe configuring the various parameters and modes for the
remotes themselves. Details on assigning remotes to control parameters and
functions with an RPM are found in Drag Net’s included Help file (Help >
Help Topics).
Creating a new Configuration
Smart Remote configurations can be created as offline Storage files, for subse-
quent transfer to a Live remote. To create a new Smart Remote Configuration:
1. Click the File menu, choose New, then select Configuration (CTRL + N).
- or - Click the New Configuration button in the standard toolbar.
- or - Right-click within the Project window and select New, then
Configuration (CTRL + N).
2. Select the configuration source, either from an empty configuration, or
from an existing Rane- or User-defined template. Select a device type from
the Configuration Type list to filter the list of file options (to only show
SR 3 files in the User Template directory, for example). Selecting the Copy
Settings check box copies all parameters to the new configuration. This
is a particularly useful feature when creating new configurations based on
existing User Templates.
3. Select a configuration type (SR 2, SR 3, SR 4) from the list of choices.
4. Click Next
5. Enter a Name, storage location on your hard drive, and brief description of
the configuration.
6. Click Finish and start configuring the remote!
File extensions for Smart Remote configurations follow the remote type –
SR 3 configurations are stored as .sr3 files, for example.
Each remote has a number of configuration parameters which determine
basic functions and user operation modes. These parameters are stored locally
on each remote in non-volatile memory.
