RE208 Hardwire-to-Honeywell
®
or 2GIG
®
Wireless Translator™
Features
•
Converts hardwire zones into Honeywell-compatible wireless signals.
•
8 Hardwire loops with end-of-line resistor detection.
•
Unique wireless ID for each zone, plus 1 for main device.
•
Transmit diversity for long reliable range.
•
PIR powering (via external supply).
•
3 year operation on batteries (contacts only).
•
Complete supervision of zone tampers and low battery.
Key Instructions
•
DO NOT MOUNT IN A METAL CAN.
•
DO NOT PUT POWER ON HARDWIRE TERMINALS.
•
Use with normally closed contacts in-line with 4.7 K-ohms resistors (mandatory).
•
Not for use with life safety devices, such as Smoke or CO sensors.
•
External supply requirements:
Contacts-only installations may use wall plug power supply (see specifications)
Installations with PIRs or Glassbreaks (powered devices) require battery-backed
external power supply (see diagram).
Without backed-up power, PIRs or Glass Breaks could alarm when
power is lost.
Translator AA batteries drive contacts only, and do not drive powered
devices.
Ensure that external supply has sufficient current to supply all
powered devices including Translator.
4-wire powered devices only. Not for use with 2-wire powered
devices.
If using old panel as the battery-backed 12V DC supply, verify supply
and battery operation. DO NOT MOUNT IN OLD CAN… the wireless will
not get out!
Installation
•
Hook up PIR and Glass Break power lines to external power supply.
•
Alarm contact hook-up:
Works only with normally-closed contacts (alarm = open).
Remove any existing end-of-line resistors.
Connect 4.7K end-of-line resistor (included) IN-LINE with contact
.
Resistor should NOT be across (between) terminals
.

Sensors:
RF Learning tripping enrollment mode.
Set up for any behavior desired.
Input Type: 3 (Supervised RF)
When prompted, open/close each zone
twice to enroll serial number.
Ensure it is set to Loop: 2.
Translator itself:
RF Learning tripping enrollment mode.
Zone Type: 8 (24 hour Aux)
Input Type: 3 (Supervised RF),
When prompted, toggle the tamper
switch to enroll serial number.
Loop 2 (but Loop doesn’t really
matter).
