Honeywell SiXREPEATER Quick Installation Manual

SiXREPEATER
Wireless Repeater /
Quick Installation Guide
The Honeywell SiXREPEATER is an RF receiver and a transmitter and is intended to
extend the range of Honeywell's SiX series devices by 200 feet (nominal). The
SiXREPEATER receives alarm, status, and control messages from SiX series
devices, and forwards these messages to control panel. The control then responds
accordingly (arm/disarm the system, initiate an alarm, etc.
FEATURES
• Transmits its own status, including tamper, AC loss, and RF Jam.
• Status sent when change occurs or during the one hour supervisory check in.
• Provides a 24-hour backup rechargeable battery.
• Features a Spatial Diversity system that virtually eliminates the possibility of
"Nulls" and "Dead Spots" within the coverage area.
• Front and wall tampers
GENERAL GUIDELINES
• The SiXREPEATER module uses a 5VDC power supply to charge the battery
(Max wire length is 9.8 ft. (3m)).
• If the voltage drops to 3.6VDC a low battery will occur.
NOTE: Anything lower than 2.6VDC, it is incapable of charging the battery; it
must be replaced
• Before mounting permanently, conduct the Go/No Go test (see controller's
instructions) to verify adequate signal strength, relocate if necessary.
• The SIXREPEATER can be installed in a residential environment and is
designed to operate 200 plus feet through 3 walls of wood, aluminum and dry
wall construction.
• The SiXREPEATER is designed for a single repeat, meaning the correct path is
transmitter > repeater > receiver. NOT transmitter > repeater > repeater >
receiver.
PLACEMENT
Find the "Null" or "Dead Spot"
1. Enter the Go-No-Go test mode: For Lyric control: Security > Tools > Installer
Code > Test > Go-No-Go Test.
2. Activate any enrolled SiX transmitter in your hand. Listen for the panel to beep
and acknowledge the fault.
With the enrolled transmitter in your hand continue to fault/restore it until the
3.
panel stops acknowledging it.
Mount the SiXREPEATER in this location following the guidelines below.
4.
MOUNTING
NOTE: for best results mount the SiXREPEATER as high as possible, keeping it
away from metal objects.
1. Select a mounting position for the module. In most installations, the best
mounting location is close to the existing control panel.
NOTES:
• If needed, you may cut and splice (observing good workmanship) the
battery wires and extend their length up to 3 ft. (0.9 meters) using 22 AWG
wire, minimum.
• DO NOT mount on or inside a metal enclosure/object.
2. Attach to the wall using the supplied screws.
3. Install the center screw to secure the back tamper to the wall.
4. Ensure the wiring is complete. Use cable ties as necessary to secure wiring.
5. Plug the power supply into an un-switched outlet and secure with screw.
6. Attach the backup battery wires.
ENROLLING
Lyric Control
Lyric Controller Enrollment Process, See Controller's installation instructions for its
proper programming process.
For Lyric Gateway
Use AlarmNet 360™ to enroll and program this sensor.
For Other Controls
For other controls that support SiX series devices, see the controller's installation app for
details.
NOTE: Once enrolled in a system, the SiXREPEATER cannot be used with another
controller until it is removed from the current controller. See the Controller's
instructions for details.
SIGNAL STRENGTH
Range of 1-4 bars (green); should be minimum 1 green bar for the Zone being
programmed. Four red bars indicate poor signal strength; the device should be relocated.
See the Controller's instructions for bar indication signal strength values. View via Lyric
"Program Zones" or SiX Programming display, or AlarmNet 360.
