Honeywell SiX Series Installation Instructions Manual

SiXC2W
Convert to Wireless Module
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The Honeywell SiXC2W is an eight zone hardwire to wireless converter used with controllers that support
Honeywell's SiX™ series devices. It is useful in retrofit 12-volt security system applications where existing contact
wiring was used. It uses those existing wired contacts and converts them to wireless.
FEATURES
• Provides 12-volts for devices such as motion
detectors, glass breaks, etc.
NOTE: Only two devices may be powered using the
auxiliary output on the SiXC2W.
• Provides 24-hour battery backup if there are no
external devices (≤100mA), other wise 12-hours if
there are two devices attached.
NOTES:
- It immediately sends a power loss signal to the
controller in the event the power is lost.
- When no battery is connected, low battery
message will send to control panel.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
• The SiXC2W module uses a 5VDC power supply to
charge the battery (Max wire length is 9.8 ft. (3m)).
• If the voltage drops to 9.5VDC a low battery will
occur.
NOTE: Anything lower than 4.5VDC, the SiXC2W is
incapable of charging the battery; it must be
replaced
CALIBRATING
The calibration process enables the SiXC2W to learn what zones
are to be active and what value EOL resistors are used.
NOTE: Unused zones that are open ARE NOT recognized
and reported
1. Ensure all zones are connected and not faulted.
2. On the SiXC2W, click the top middle button.
3. Indicator LED #2 will flash Red for 1/2 second; then LED #3 turns
steady Green.
4. Calibration is in process
5. DONE. The SiXC2W is calibrated and ready to enroll in the control
panel.
NOTES:
• If the SiXC2W loses both AC and battery backup power, the
zone calibration data is retained.
• If a resistor does exist, it MUST have a value between 1K and
10K.The unit comes with eight (8) 2.2K resistors for zones with
no resistors.
- When battery is connected, and if battery voltage
drops below 3.6VDC, a low battery message will send
to control panel.
- When only the battery is connected, and if the
battery voltage 3.4 V, system will shut down.
• Support one button calibration
• Automatic zone configuration
• Easy setup in three steps
• Cover tamper protection
IMPORTANT!
Not to be used for fire, heat, or carbon
monoxide detectors.
• Up to eight [8] hardwired zones can be handled by
each SiXC2W module.
• Before mounting permanently, conduct the Go/No
Go test (see control's instructions) to verify adequate
signal strength, relocate if necessary.
IMPORTANT!
ONCE THE SIXC2W IS CALIBRATED, ANY CHANGE
IN THE ZONE RESISTANCE THE MODULE MUST
BE RE-CALIBRATED.
