ADEMCO 5843
Switching Module
INSTALLATION AND SETUP GUIDE
GENERAL INFORMATION
The 5843 is a wireless receiver module intended for use
with alarm systems that support 5800 series wireless
devices. The 5843 enables the use of up to eight wireless
transmitters to operate a relay-activated device. The
5843 may only be used with other ADEMCO security
products. It is compatible with the following wireless
transmitters:
•
5804
•
5804-2
•
5804E
•
5804BD
•
5804BDV
•
5804WATCH
IMPORTANT
: When the
5804WATCH
is used in
conjunction with the 5843, it has a limited transmission
range. Therefore, use the
5804WATCH
when in close
proximity to the 5843 (EX. use
5804WATCH
in lieu of
the system keypad).
INSTALLATION AND SETUP
Use the following guidelines when selecting a mounting
location for the 5843 Switching Module:
•
Mount the 5843 in a high location for best wireless
reception.
•
Do not mount the 5843 on or near metal objects.
This decreases range and/or blocks wireless
transmissions.
•
The 5843 must be located at least 10 feet from any
remote keypads to avoid interference from the
microprocessors in those units.
•
To avoid voltage loss that occurs on long power lines,
the external power supply unit should be mounted
in close proximity to the 5843.
Mounting
IMPORTANT:
Before permanently mounting the
5843, perform the setup procedure described in the
Setting Up the 5843
section.
1.
Remove the 5843's cover (using a small flathead
screwdriver, insert screwdriver’s tip in slot at top of
cover to remove).
2.
Using the 5843 base as a drill template, position in
the desired location and drill two pilot holes. See
Figure 1 for mounting hole location.
3.
Attach the 5843 base using the fasteners supplied.
Note:
This product uses latching relays, which retain
their open/closed position even when power is
disconnected. Due to shocks or vibration during
shipment and installation, the out-of-box state of these
relays may be either open or closed. When power is first
applied, the relay will be set to its correct initial state.
Please bear this in mind during installation; it is
strongly recommended that you wire this module and
apply power to it before energizing any external circuit
controlled by the latching relay.
4.
Connect desired relay switching wire to 5843
terminal 3 (COM) and terminal 1 (NC) or 2 (NO) as
required by the relay. Refer to relay manufacturer’s
instructions to determine if it operates with a NC or
NO switch.
5.
Connect power wiring to the 5843’s terminals. Refer
Figure 1.
The 5843 can be powered from either a 12VDC or 9VAC
external power source.

LED Operation
The Yellow, Red, and Green LEDs located above the DIP
switch and the RF interference LED located between the
two mounting holes, are described below.
LED
Activates Upon
Yellow
Indicates Relay state:
LED OFF = Reset State, NC contact connected
to COM.
LED ON = Set State, NO contact connects to
COM.
The relay state momentarily changes when an
enrolled button is pressed. When power is
applied, the relay is forced to the reset state.
Red
Wireless Key enrollment/erase indicator. (Used to
determine status during Enrolling RF Transmitters
and Erasing All RF Transmitters procedures).
Green
Normally on (lighted) when power is applied.
Flickering indicates RF is being processed.
RF
Interference
Lights when RF activity is present.
