SR 4 Configuration Parameters
The SR 4 features a 31-position LED indicator, rotary data encoder with inte-

grated push switch, and a column of eight green LED indicators for selection

status. Custom selection lists are easily created using the included Microsoft

Word template or SR 4 Label Maker application. The printed list is then

placed beneath the transparent window of the SR 4 ’s faceplate insert, and

held firmly in place by a plastic lens.

Auto Lock
Auto Lock is used in conjunction with the SR’s Encoder Lock pin to disable

the SR encoder. When the Encoder Lock pin is grounded and Auto Lock is

enabled, changes in position of the encoder are ignored by the SR. For ex-

ample, a keyed switch installed next to the SR allows the device to be locked

temporarily so the system volume can not be adjusted.

Knob Turn
When Auto Level is enabled and the encoder is turned normally (without

pushing it in) the LED moves clockwise or counterclockwise one position in

the direction the knob was turned. Always enable Auto Level when using a

Smart Remote with a Rane RPM device.

Knob Push & Turn
When Auto Selection is enabled and the encoder is held in and turned, the

vertical selection LED moves vertically amongst the choices.

When Selection Roll is enabled the selection wraps around from last to

first (or first to last, depending on the direction the encoder was turned).

When Update on Release is enabled, the SR updates its Selection index

when the encoder is released, rather than updating each time the encoder is

turned. This feature allows users to scroll through selections, choose the selec-

tion they want, then release the encoder to trigger the action (for example,

recall a Preset on an RPM 88).

Knob Bump
When Auto Selection is enabled and the encoder is pressed in and released

(without turning), the next Selection is automatically chosen; the Selection

index is updated after the Update Timer expires. Note: Selections automati-

cally roll from last to first while in Bump mode.

The Update Timer determines how long the SR 4 waits before updating

its Selection index once the encoder is released. Setting this value to 0 updates

the index instantly, with every press/release combination of the encoder.

Increasing this value allows users to scroll through and preview selections

without updating the index on every press. The valid range for the timer is 0

to 5 seconds.
