READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION
The Miller Edge RBand Monitored Gate Edge Transmitter/Receiver system is intended to provide a wireless connection between a
monitored sensing edge and a motorized operator that controls the associated gate. The RBand Receiver is compatible with up to 3
RBand Transmitters on 2 channels; 6 total transmitters. RBand meets the 2016 UL 325 requirements for monitored devices and has
been certified as a UL 325 Recognized Component. It is designed for use with operators that comply with 2016 UL 325 using a Miller
Edge 10K Sensing Edge.

5. Determine which monitored interface your operator uses:
• 10K Operator [Table 1]: Connect the COM (C1/C2) and the correct output connections (BS1/BS2) to your operator. Set
DIP switch 4 to off.
• N.C. Operator [Table 2]: Connect the COM (C1/C2) and the correct output connections (CS1/CS2) to your operator. The
A Test terminals must be used for operators requiring N.C. inputs. Set DIP switch 4 to on.
6. Turn on power to the operator. Note: it takes ~5 seconds for the Receiver to initialize.

3. PROGRAM MODE
For best performance, turn on all other wireless devices (e.g. card readers, etc.) prior to starting the programming process. The
RBand Receiver will search for the quietest RF channel.
1. Confirm the Receiver is powered up. Prior to mounting the Transmitter, remove the cover and insert the batteries, noting their
polarity. The green LED on the Transmitter may blink to indicate that it has not been associated with the Receiver yet [IMAGE
3].
2. To enter learn mode, press and hold the Receiver program button until you hear a beep and only the R1 LED is on, then
release the button [IMAGE 2].
3. Within 10 seconds, press the Transmitter program button for ~2 seconds [IMAGE 3]. The Receiver should beep. Wait 10
seconds for 2 additional beeps to indicate that programming is complete.
4. To program a Transmitter to Channel 2, press and hold the Receiver program button until the second beep and the R2 LED is
on, then release the button. Repeat 3-3.
5. To associate up to 2 additional (3 total) transmitters per channel, repeat steps 3-1 to 3-4.
6. The R1 and R2 LEDs will stay on until a 10K sensing edge is connected to the Transmitter(s) [SECTION 4].
7. Replace the cover on the Receiver.
4. TRANSMITTER: INSTALL & TEST
1. Strip back approximately 2 inches of outer covering of sensing edge cable, then feed through the Transmitter strain relief
fitting. Connect the two sensing edge wires to the removable terminal. Dress the wires with a small service loop and tighten
the strain relief. Mount unit utilizing the mounting holes at the 4 corners of the Transmitter box. Affix lid to the Transmitter, noting
the alignment pin [IMAGE 3].
• Note: Altering the NEMA 4 Transmitter enclosure (such as drilling) and/or removal of the PCB is not advised and will
void the manufacturer warranty.
2. Test the sensing edge for functionality.
5. TROUBLESHOOTING
1. To verify proper Transmitter function, press the Transmitter program button. The LED will blink and then turn off. Test the
sensing edge and note that the LED turns on.
2. If the Receiver beeps 4 times every 4 seconds, replace the transmitter batteries.
3. If the Receiver does not react to the Transmitter and shows intermittent faults (R1 or R2 on and off randomly), follow these
steps to check the RF signal strength:
a) Press the check button on the Receiver for ~2 seconds [IMAGE 2]; 4 beeps will be heard. You will then hear a
beep every 1.5 seconds during the check process. Wait about 30 seconds; if no other beeps occur, your system is
functioning. 3 quick beeps indicate a communication error.
b) Press the sensing edge and observe the check LED; 3-5 flashes is ideal. Less than 3 flashes means there is a weak
signal. Press the other edge to check the signal strength for that Transmitter.
c) Check the antenna position for the best line-of-sight alignment. Check the coax cable to the antenna.
d) To exit the check function, press the check button or the system will time out after 5 minutes. There will be a series of
beeps heard upon exiting.

6. ERASING THE RBAND RECEIVER
If you encounter intermittent performance or you have any other programming issues, erase the RBand Receiver and reprogram
the Transmitters. The Receiver will search for a clear RF channel.
1. To erase all Transmitters programmed into the Receiver, use a screwdriver to short the two pins marked MR next to the DIP
switches [IMAGE 2].
2. While shorting the pins, press and hold the program button; you will hear a series of 10 beeps followed by a rapid chirping
sound. Release the program button and the MR pin short when your hear the chirping
3. Wait ~10 seconds and you will hear 2 beeps. The Receiver is now ready to be reprogrammed.
