1. Prepare the device for enrolment. Remove the
mounting base to access the PCB with the batteries
compartment. The batteries of all new devices are
protected from activation with a folio strip.
Note: If the device is not new, you have to reset it before
enrolment to the expander module. To reset a device,
power it on with the batteries and after that press and
hold ENROLL button for 5-7 seconds. The reset is
complete when the LEDs of the device flash 3 times in
green, followed from 1 long flash in red and 1 long flash
in green.
2. Enter in programming mode of the module. Select
menu 1. ADD DEVICE and press ENTER button. A list
with already enrolled devices is shown on the screen
with an order number and type of the device: 45RFU100
(optical-smoke detector), 45RCS100 (heat detector),
45RML100 (combined detector), 45PAM100 (manual call
point), 45SCI100 (sounder with strobe), 45IOM (input-
output module) - you can find detailed information about
the wireless devices in their installation manuals.
3. Scroll down to find a free address to enroll the device.
The free address is labeled as EMPTY.
4. Press ENTER button. Message SEARCHING >>>
(arrows are blinking) appears on the screen showing that
the module is scanning for signals from wireless device
in its covering range. Note: If there is no signal from the
device in 2-minute period, the expander module will exit
automatically the programming mode.
5. Power on the wireless device - remove the protective
folio from the batteries of new devices - and single press
the ENROLL button. The LEDs of the device start flashing
in red.
6. In case of successful enrolment, the LEDs of the
device flash 3 times in green, the message DONE
appears on the screen and then the module automatically
moves to the next free address in the list. The enrolled
wireless device is added to the list with its specific type.
7. Test the signal strength between the wireless device
and the expander module. Single press the ENROLL
button of the device and wait for the LED indication:
- 3 flashes in green - excellent signal strength;
- 3 flashes in orange - good signal strength; but, if
possible, change the place of installation;
- 3 flashes in red - poor signal strength; it is obligatory to
change the place of installation.
You can also check the signal quality for the device in 5.
DEVICE RSSI menu - see item 15.
