2 Installation and Startup

2.1 Installation Notes

• These products are designed to be maintained by professional 

security technicians.

• Products are tested for indoor use.
• Do not mount wireless smoke detectors, co detectors, initiating device 

transmitters or repeaters to removable surfaces, such as ceiling tiles. 

• All products should be manually tested weekly.
• The EN4204R must be installed within 30 m (98.5 ft) of control unit.
• Low power transmitters shall be limited to a single initiating device.

2.2 Connect Power Cabling

Caution: 

Incorrect connections may cause damage to the unit.

Before beginning startup, you will have to connect power to the receiver. To 

connect power to the receiver:

1.

Use a small screwdriver to press the housing release tab on the top or 

bottom of the receiver; separate the housing.

2.

Connect power cabling to the Power and GND connections.

• Power source should be 11-14 VDC. Power supply must be 

unswitched, uninterrupted, and regulated.

• Use 18 - 22 gauge wire for all cabling, and ensure torque on the screw 

terminals does not exceed 7 inch-pounds.

2.3 Select the Frequency Band

EchoStream products are able to use a range of radio frequencies, and are 

shipped from Inovonics set for your geographic area.
