ADEMCO 5800RP RF Repeater Module – Installation Instructions
INTRODUCTION
The 5800RP RF Repeater Module consists of an RF receiver and a
transmitter and is intended to extend the range of 5800 series RF
devices by 200 feet (nominal).
The 5800RP receives alarm, status, and control messages from
5800 series devices, and forwards these messages to control panel
connected receivers such as the 5881EN, 5883, 6128RF, 6150RF,
and LYNX controls. The control then responds accordingly
(arm/disarm the system, initiate an alarm, etc.).
The 5800RP also transmits it’s own status including tamper, AC
loss and RF jam detect via a built-in serial number assigned to a
control panel zone(s). Status is sent whenever a change occurs or
as part of a supervisory check-in message sent approximately once
an hour.
The 5800RP contains a rechargeable battery that provides up to
6
hours of standby operation after primary power is lost.
The 5800RP features a Spatial Diversity system that virtually
eliminates the possibility of "Nulls" and "Dead Spots" within the
coverage area.

Wireless System Overview using 5800RP Repeater Module
INSTALLING THE 5800RP MODULE
Mount the 5800RP remotely in its own housing following the steps
below, and avoid mounting the module with its antennas touching
a metal surface.
Check for RF Interference:
Before mounting permanently, use the
red RF Interference LED to check for strong local radio frequency
interference at the intended mounting location. If this LED is
continuously lit, the 5800RP module should be relocated.
Removing the Cover:
Remove the 5800RP's cover by inserting and
twisting a screwdriver blade in the slot at the center of the cover's
lower edge. Note that removing the cover also places the 5800RP in
the Go/No Go Test mode. This decreases its range during
installation to insure an adequate margin during normal
operation.
Mounting the Module
1. For concealed wiring, route power wires through the
rectangular opening at the rear of the base before mounting.
For surface wiring entry, a thin breakaway area is provided
along the base's right edge.
2. Mount the module in the selected location. For greatest
security, use all four mounting holes (two keyslot holes and
two round holes) in the plastic base.
3. Install each antenna in the respective right-hand terminal of
the two terminal blocks at the upper edge of the 5800RP’s
circuit board, and tighten the screws to secure them.
4. Affix the Summary of Connections label to the inside of the
module’s cover. Make sure the arrows and large ‘plus sign’ on
the label line up with the corresponding posts in the cover.
5. If applicable, set the Site ID by referring to the
Setting the
Site ID
section on the next page.
Connecting the Power Source
The 5800RP is powered from an AC external power source
connected to terminals 1 and 2 (see figure 2).
Power source ratings are as follows:
Type
Rating
Class 2 AC Transformer
9VAC, 15VA (Honeywell PN 300-07753)
6. Connect the transformer to the 5800RP’s terminals. Refer to
Figure 2. These terminals are not polarized. The leads from
the AC transformer may be connected to either terminal.
Do not connect to a receptacle controlled by a switch.
NOTE:
Use of power sources with higher or lower voltages may result
in damage or failure to operate properly.
Connecting the Battery
7. Begin battery installation by attaching an adhesive backed hook
and loop fastener strip (supplied) to the Summary of Connections
label in the cover. Place the strip within the large box drawing
labeled ‘PLACE BATTERY HERE’. Refer to Figure 2.
8. Attach another adhesive backed hook and loop fastener strip to
the battery. Attach the battery to the cover by firmly pressing
the two hook and loop fastener strips together. Make sure the
battery is positioned as shown in Figure 2.
9. Plug the battery cable into the battery connector on the 5800RP
PCB. Refer to Figure 2.
CHARGING NOTE:
The battery must be allowed to charge at
least 48 hours in order to reach its full capacity.
10. Replace the cover on the 5800RP, being careful not to pinch the
battery wires between the cover and case or any PCB components.
