Wireless Expansion
Any number of zones, up to 32, can be programmed as wireless. Adding wireless devices to the panel is
done by simply selecting the zone number and entering the 5 digit ESN number written on the unit.
If the
Zones 1-4 Enable
Option is disabled zones 1 to 4 will be disabled for hardwire operation and
wireless devices can be substituted. Also if
Zones 5-8 Enable
Option is disabled zones 5 to 8 will be
disabled for hardwire operation and wireless devices can be substituted.
After disabling or enabling main board zones, the panel should be powered down.
Do not add wireless devices to the same zone as a hardwire zone. Hardwire and wireless
zones cannot share the same zone.
Each wireless zone, WLS904, WLS905, WLS906, or WLS907 will send a supervisory round every 12
minutes. If the receiver hears from the wireless device at least once during the
Wireless Supervisory
Window
it will not report a trouble. If the receiver does not it will generate a
General Zone Supervisory
trouble and reporting code. The panel will report Supervisory trouble by zone using the SIA format
(See
Within the supervisory transmission the device will also indicate the status of the battery. If a low battery
condition exists the panel will indicate a
General Transmitter Low Battery
trouble. The panel will delay
reporting the event for the number of days programmed for
Wireless Low Battery Transmission Delay
. If
the customer has been instructed on how to replace batteries this will prevent unnecessary reporting of
the event provided the batteries are changed.
A PC5132 tamper will be logged to the event buffer or transmitted as a general system tamper under two
conditions. It will first occur if the tamper terminals on the PC5132 are open; the tamper will be restored by
shorting out these terminals. Second, a tamper will be logged when the PC5132 detects an attempt to
impede RF signals. This advises the monitoring station that the wireless zone transmissions are not being
received by the modules.
