Abstract
This study considers the design of a remote-controlled feedback shift register (pseudo-random sequence generator). A coded sequential input is used to modify existing feedback switch connections. The free running shift register then generates a different maximal length pseudo-random sequence. To prevent control or use of the device by unauthorized persons, a time gate is included in the operation. Recommendations for implementation are presented.
