Quick Start
How many knobs does it take to turn on eight green LEDs? One...but at least
read this section to avoid unwelcome jokes.
Architectural look. Since Decora plates come in different colors, each SR
4 is shipped with 3 different color labels for installation behind the lens (we
ship them without an insert installed). Colors included are white (w/ black
logo), almond (w/ black logo) and black ( w/ white logo) which accommodate
most applications. The label has a transparent window so custom selection
lists can be seen. Custom selection lists are easily created using a Microsoft
Word™ template or the SR Label Maker application included on the Drag Net
CD-ROM or downloadable from www.rane.com/smart.html.
Address. Set the Device Address rotary switch on the side of the SR 4;
addresses from 0 through 7 are valid. Each device connected to the same RS-
485 bus must have a unique address.
Wiring. Use CAT 5 cable with a minimum of 2 twisted pairs to connect
to the SR 4. The use of DOG 4 cable may cause random barking in high traf-
fic areas (sorry, couldn't resist). Connect one twisted pair of wires to the “-V”
and “+V” terminals: “-V” must connect to the power supply ground and “+V”
must connect to +8 to +15 volts. Connect the second twisted pair of wires to
the “A” and “B” terminals: “A” connects to the RS-485 “data +” connection
and “B” connects to the RS-485 “data –” connection. When shielded CAT 5
cable is used, a chassis terminal is provided for shield termination.
Setup software. The SR 4 is configured using Drag Net software included
in the box or available at www.rane.com/dragnet. See “Working with Smart
Remotes” on page 5.
