A philosophy of Meggitt Training Systems is that range operation should never be inhibited by shortcomings in the control system. It is for this reason that a number of options are available for legacy as well as current and future cabled and radio-controlled ranges.

For computer controlled ranges, Meggitt uses its RangeMaster™ 9000 (RM9K) family of devices. RangeMaster™ is a Microsoft Windows® based software application developed by Meggitt. RangeMaster™ controls targetry, simulators and other accessories for small arms and armor range systems. Most target commands are entered with a simple click of the mouse or selected from drop-down menus. Scenarios can be written directly on the RangeMaster computer or on any other computer using common word processing software. Target status, hit results and report generation are all available.

On traditional ranges with a control tower, the RM9K installation is typically a desktop computer with an accompanying adapter for cable or radio controlled application. The system also supports ranges using a combination of both radio and cable controlled targetry. On ranges where security is an issue when the range is vacant, a laptop computer can be employed and the laptop secured when not in use. Meggitt also offers a ruggedized laptop computer control package to allow range control from a vehicle or temporary location.

Meggitt radio controlled targets and simulators can also be controlled by a line of purpose-built portable, hand-held controllers. They allow programmed scenario preparation and execution as well as manual control of the targets. Hit results and target status are also available to the operator.

Based on the exceptional performance of the new RangeMaster™ 10K (RM10K) for law enforcement range control, Meggitt is completing a version for military ranges. The RM10K will be available in PDA or Tablet PC form. The RM10K will have all of the functionality of the RM9K, but with greater portability. The RM10K will be capable of being added to allow control of a range using an existing RM9K from anywhere on the range or provided for new installations of radio or cabled ranges.
