The defining difference between the 1086 Ri and the standard 1086 R is straightforward: the radio transmitter is embedded directly inside the indicator housing, with no external transmitter module, no adapter clip, and no additional battery required for wireless operation. The indicator measures, displays, and transmits in a single body at the same size, weight, and mounting footprint as its cabled counterpart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"standard-markdown grid-cols-1 grid [\u0026amp;_\u0026gt;_*]:min-w-0 gap-3\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe wireless system uses ANT+ protocol, communicating with the Mahr i-Stick USB receiver (order no. 4102220, sold separately) that plugs directly into a PC's USB port. A single i-Stick receiver manages up to eight 1086 Ri indicators simultaneously, eliminating the multi-channel interface boxes, serial concentrators, and powered USB hubs that conventional wireless gaging systems require. Measured values transmit to any Windows application including MS Excel and SPC software exactly as they would from a wired data cable: the operator presses the DATA button, the reading appears in the active application field at the cursor position. The display confirms whether the transmission was successful and whether the indicator is within receiving range of the i-Stick, providing real-time feedback at the gage rather than requiring the operator to look back at the PC screen to verify data capture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"standard-markdown grid-cols-1 grid [\u0026amp;_\u0026gt;_*]:min-w-0 gap-3\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAvailable in four measuring spans from 12.5mm (0.5\"), 25mm (1\"), 50mm (2\"), and 100mm (4\"), the 1086 Ri carries the same full feature set as the 1086 R: selectable resolution in five steps from 0.0005mm to 0.01mm (0.00002\" to 0.0005\"), Reference System zero retention through power cycles, 280°-rotating lockable bezel, 11mm high-contrast LCD, hardened stainless steel spindle and 8mm shank, complete tolerance GO\/NO GO display mode, PRESET numerical entry, ABS zero-without-losing-reference, configurable LOCK for individual key protection, and adjustable measurement factor for lever ratio compensation. MarConnect cabled output (Digimatic, Opto RS-232C, USB) remains available on every 1086 Ri via connection cable even with Integrated Wireless active, allowing the same indicator to serve both wireless networked stations and cabled bench setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"standard-markdown grid-cols-1 grid [\u0026amp;_\u0026gt;_*]:min-w-0 gap-3\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eBattery life is approximately three years under normal production use when Integrated Wireless is deactivated. The Reference System's extremely low standby power draw being the primary contributor to this figure. With Integrated Wireless activated for continuous transmission, battery life is reduced, but the CR 2450 coin cell is a standard, widely available type that can be replaced without tools. MarCom Professional software (free download at mahr.com) provides full PC-based remote control, configuration, key locking setup, and data capture management for both wireless and USB\/RS-232 connected 1086 Ri units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated ANT+ Wireless Transmitter -

The Reference System stores the established zero position and retains it through power-off cycles, spindle retractions, and indicator relocations so every time the 1086 Ri is switched on or the spindle re-engaged, measurement begins immediately from the stored reference without re-mastering; in multi-station wireless gaging networks where indicators may be powered down between batches, this eliminates zero-reset time and master-rechecking from every job startup sequence, compounding cycle-time savings across every indicator in the network.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFive Steps from 0.0005mm to 0.01mm on a Single Indicator\u003c\/strong\u003e -
