Setting Device Group
Group ID's are the way to limit communication between multiple sets of Sender/Display sets. Devices will only communicate with other devices that have the same Group ID number. Senders and Displays have a default Group ID set to 1. If you have multiple sets and do not want them to talk to each other, set a different ID on each set.
Option 1 - Use the display
The remote display can set Group ID's on connected nodes and is a simpler method. Refer to the display guide on setting Device Group ID's for more information.
Option 2 - Use the hardware button
Click the GROUP button to increase the Group ID number by 1. The status light will flash yellow the number of the group. For example, pressing once will change to group 2 and the light will flash two times.
Once you reach group 8, it will restart back at group 1.
Press and hold the GROUP button for 1 sec to save your changes.
Release the button when the status light flashes green to confirm it is saved.
Setting radio range
Senders ship with the range set at normal which is 800' with out obstructions impeding the signal. It can be increased for special case scenarios that need additional distance.
Option 1 - Use the display
The remote display can set Group ID's on connected nodes and is a simpler method. Refer to the display guide on setting Device Group ID's for more information.
Option 2 - Use the hardware button
Click the RANGE button to increase to the next higher level setting. The status light will flash yellow to indicate the range setting you are on (one flash = level 1, two flash = level 2, ...). Once you reach the highest level setting the next press will be back to the start at normal.

800' line of sight, transmits 3x/sec
1400' line of sight (or 1000' through 16 houses), transmits 2/x sec
2000' line of sight, transmits 1x every 2sec
