Transmitter Input Types
All of the transmitters described have one or more unique factory assigned input
(loop) ID codes. Each of the inputs requires its own programming zone
(e.g., a
5803's three inputs require three programming zones). See APPENDIX A toward
the end of this manual.
Transmitters can be enrolled as one of the following types:
Type Description
"RF" Sends periodic check-in signals, as well as fault,
(Supervised RF) restore, and low battery signals. The transmitter must
remain within the receiver's range.
"UR" Sends all the signals that the "RF" Type does, but the
(Unsupervised RF) control does not supervise the check-in signals. The
transmitter may therefore be carried off-premises.
"BR" These only send fault signals. They do not send low
(Unsupervised Button battery signals until they are activated. The
RF) transmitter may be carried off-premises.
Transmitter Battery Life
Do not install batteries in wireless transmitters until ready to enroll, as will be
indicated in the procedure that follows under “Programming the Receiver and
Transmitters." After enrolling, batteries need not be removed.
• Batteries in the wireless transmitters may last from 4–7 years, depending on
the environment, usage, and the specific wireless device being used. Factors
such as humidity, high or low temperatures, as well as large swings in
temperature may all reduce the actual battery life in a given installation. The
wireless system can identify a true low battery situation, thus allowing the
dealer or user of the system time to arrange a change of battery and maintain
protection for that given point within the system.
• Some transmitters (e.g., 5802, 5802CP, and 5803) contain long-life but non-
replaceable batteries, and no battery installation is required. At the end of their
life, the complete unit must be replaced (and a new serial number enrolled by
the control).
• Button type transmitters (ex. 5801, 5802, 5802CP & 5803) should be
periodically tested for battery life.
• The 5802MN and 5804 button transmitters have replaceable batteries.
Using The Transmitter Sniffer Mode
1. Enter Installer code (4112) + # + 3 from partition 1's keypad. This initiates a
procedure that will provide a check that all transmitters have been properly
programmed.
2. The keypad will display all zone numbers of wireless units programmed into
the system. Fault each transmitter in turn, causing each one to send a signal,
rather than let each transmitter send an automatic supervisory signal.
As the system receives a signal from each of the transmitters, the zone
number of that transmitter will disappear from the display. The transmitters
may be checked upon installation, or in an installed system.
3. When all transmitters have been checked, exit the sniffer mode by keying
Installer code (4112) + OFF.
NOTE: Sniffer mode does not automatically expire. You must manually exit
(installer code + OFF) sniffer mode to return to normal operation. Sniffer Mode
also terminates if a user arms the system.
