•
Listens to both 2GIG and Honeywell protocol wireless devices.
•
Also listens to old Honeywell devices from original 2GIG takeover.
•
Transmits GE protocol wireless.
•
Enrolls up to 63 devices.
•
Unique wireless ID for each zone, plus 1 for main device.
•
All sensor alarm, supervisory and trouble signals are passed through.
•
Dual antennas for both Receive and Transmit diversity for reliable range.
•
Back-up battery operation.
•
Complete supervision of tampers, external power fault and low battery.
Key Instructions
•
External supply: 12V DC at least 50 mA. Power terminals do not care
which wire is positive or negative!

Mount Translator at least 20 feet from Control Panel’s receiver.
•
3 AAA Alkaline batteries give 72 hours backup if external supply fails.
INSTALL BATTERIES ONLY WHEN EXTERNAL SUPPLY IS READY TO CONNECT.
•
Enrolling:
Sensors
1.
Place Panel in Learn Sensors mode.
2.
Press Translator Enroll switch repeatedly until Device Type LED
matches the type of device you’re enrolling. ENROLLING AS
WRONG DEVICE TYPE CAN CAUSE IMPROPER OPERATION.
3.
Activate particular 2GIG (or Honeywell) sensor as follows:
o
PIR: Tamper – ENROLL PIRs FIRST
No tamper on Honeywell 5800PIR-RES: Insert battery
(Used for PIRs and Glass Break sensors)
o
Panic: Button
o
Key Fob: Lower Right
o
DWS: Tamper
No tamper on Honeywell DWS: Insert battery
4.
Automatic responses:
o
Green LED blinks on receipt of 2GIG (& HW) packets.
o
Translator beeps on enrollment into Translator.
o
Red LED blinks on transmit of GE packet to panel.
o
The Translator transmits packets to the panel as soon as
it learns a new sensor.
5.
Panel, if in Learn Sensors mode, will generally learn the GE-
compatible packets simultaneously
Main Translator device
1.
Place Panel in Learn Sensors mode.
2.
Press tamper switch on Translator board. Enroll in Group 10.
Translator itself never alarms, but its health needs to be
monitored like a regular DWS.
Delete all sensors:
1.
Press enroll button repeatedly until all Device Type LEDs are
off.
2.
Press and hold enroll key for 5 seconds until beep.
Delete just one Device Type:
1.
Press enroll button repeatedly until target Device Type LED is
