What’s New with Version 1.5
• Added support for the REM3 on EVO panels (requires EVO V2.1 or
higher)
• Added support for 4 wireless sirens (SR150) on Spectra SP panels
(requires Spectra SP V4.0 or higher)
Introduction
The RTX3 is a 2-Way Wireless Expansion Module for use with any Digiplex
EVO, Spectra SP, and Esprit series control panel. It is also compatible with
the DGP-NE96 and DGP-848 control panels.
Before Programming
1.
Connect the RTX3 according to the installation guide.
2.
Write down the serial number of all wireless modules to be used with
the RTX3. If this installation replaces another RTX3, make sure the
programming can be transferred.
3.
Make sure every wireless module works properly and that you have
the latest version of the firmware for the RTX3 and panels.
System Reset
Press and hold the Programming button for 5 seconds, the BUS RX LED
will flash. Release the button and press it again while the LED flashes to
reset the module to its default values. The system reset feature only
functions during the first 30 seconds after the RTX3 is powered up.

Instructions
Spectra SP Series Programming
When connected to a Spectra SP series panel, the RTX3 settings are programmed into the panel. Refer to the
panel’s Programming Guide. Requires version 2.0 or higher of the K32 or K10V/H keypads. You can only connect
one RTX3 to a Spectra SP Series panel.
Digiplex EVO Programming
To enter programming mode with a Digiplex EVO panel, press and hold the
[0]
button. Enter the installer code and go to
section
[4003]
. Enter the RTX3’s 8-digit serial number. Enter the section number you wish to program.
After Programming with EVO
