Transmitter Battery Life

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 point within the

5801

5802MN

system.

 

 

Button-type transmitters should be periodically tested for battery life.

Using the Transmitter Sniffer Mode

 

Use this mode after all transmitters have been entered to check that all

 

transmitters have been properly programmed.

5804 /5804E

1. Enter Installer code (4112) + [#] + 3.

01009-011-V0

Note: If the communicator is in the process of sending a report to the central station, the system will not go into the Sniffer mode. If so, wait a few minutes and try again.

2.The keypad will display all zone numbers, which have a non-zero Zone Type (even if serial numbers were not learned yet). Fault each transmitter in turn, causing each one to send a 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 Sniffer mode. Enter Installer Code (4112) +

OFF.

Notes: (1) Sniffer mode does not automatically expire. You must manually exit (Installer Code + OFF) Sniffer mode to return to normal operation.

(2)All BR-type units must physically be activated to clear the display, since they do not automatically send check-in signals.

(3)When one button of a transmitter (RF, UR, or BR) is activated, all zones assigned to other buttons on that transmitter are cleared. This also applies to 5816 and 5817 transmitters that have multiple loops (zones).

(4)Any transmitter that is not “entered” will not turn off its zone number.

Go/No Go Test Mode

Note: Encrypted (high-security) devices must be activated while the system is in Go/No Go Test Mode. Refer to the transmitter’s installation instructions for complete details.

The Go/No Go tests will verify adequate RF signal strength from the proposed transmitter location, and allow you to reorient or relocate transmitters if necessary, before mounting the transmitters permanently.

This mode is similar to the transmitter Test mode, except that the wireless receiver gain is reduced. This will enable you to make sure that the RF signal from each transmitter is received with sufficient signal amplitude when the system is in the normal operating mode.

1.Enter Installer Code (4112) + [#] + 8.

2.Once you have placed transmitters in their desired locations and the approximate length of wire to be run to sensors is connected to the transmitter's screw terminals (if used), fault each transmitter.

Conducting this test with your hand wrapped around the transmitter will cause inaccurate results.

Note: On button type transmitters that have been programmed to set ARM AWAY, ARM STAY, or DISARM, pressing a button will take the system out of the Go/No Go Test mode and cause the programmed action.

a.The keypad will beep three times indicating signal reception and will display the appropriate zone number.

b.If the keypad does not beep, reorient or move the transmitter to another location. Usually a few inches in either direction is all that is required.

4.If each transmitter produces the proper keypad response when it is faulted, you can then permanently mount each of the transmitters according to the instructions provided with them.

5.Exit the Go/No Go Test mode by entering: Installer Code (4112) + OFF.
