Transmitter Battery Life
•Batteries in the wireless transmitters may last from
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. |

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. | ||
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

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

(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
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.
