19. WIRELESS DEVICES
ESIM384 system has a built-in wireless module for system extension capabilities. The wireless module easily allows the user to pair up to
32 ELDES-made wireless devices with the system. This includes the following:
• EWP2 – wireless PIR sensor (motion detector).
• EWP3 - wireless PIR sensor (motion detector).
• EWD2 - wireless magnetic door contact/shock sensor/ood sensor.
• EWD3 - wireless magnetic door contact/shock sensor/ood sensor.
• EWS3 – wireless indoor siren.
• EWS2 – wireless outdoor siren.
• EWK1 and EWK2/EWK2A – wireless keyfob.
• EKB3W – wireless keypad.
• EWKB4 - wireless keypad.
• EWKB5 - wireless touchpad.
• EW2 – wireless zone and PGM output expansion module.
• EWF1 - wireless smoke detector.
• EWF1CO - wireless smoke and CO detector.
• EWR2 - wireless signal repeater.
• EWM1 - wireless power socket.
For more details on technical specications and installation of the wireless devices, please refer to chapter 41.RADIO SYSTEM INSTAL
LATION AND SIGNAL PENETRATION APPENDIX 4 and the latest user manual of the wireless device located at www.eldesalarms.com
The wireless devices can operate at a range of up to 3000m (9842.6ft) range in open areas. The wireless connection is two-way and op-
erates in one of four available channels in ISM868 non-licensed band. When Conguration software is launched, the frequency time of at-
tempt of all NOT added wireless devices, that have frequency time of attempt higher than 10 sec, is changed to 10 sec. After Conguration
software is closed, frequency time of attempt for every individual device is changed as it was.
NOTE: In case if Remote Connection session being activated, the frequency time of attempts for every wireless device will be exactly the
same as default Test Time period, indicated below.
The communication link between the wireless device and the alarm system is constantly supervised by a congurable self-test period,
known as Test Time. When the wireless device is switched ON, it will initiate the Test Time transmission to the system within its wireless
connection range. In order to optimize battery power saving of the wireless device, the Test Time periods vary by itself while the device
is switched ON, but still unpaired. When the alarm system is switched OFF or if the wireless device is unpaired or removed the Test Time
period of the wireless device is as follows (non-customizable):
• EKB3W, EW2, EWP2, EWS2, EWS3, EWF1, EWF1CO, EWM1:
• First 360 attempts after the device startup (reset) - every 10 seconds.
• The rest of attempts - every 1 minute.
• EWD2:
• First 360 attempts after the device startup (reset) - every 10 seconds.
• The rest of attempts - every 2 minutes.
• NOTE: Only for EWD3, EWKB4, EWP3
• Standard Test Time of all attempts when paired with alarm system - EWP3 - every 1 minute; EWKB4, EWD3 - every 5 minutes.
• Standard Test Time of all attempts when NOT paired with alarm system or in case wireless connection is lost for more than 48
hours - every 10 minutes.
Once the wireless device is paired, it will attempt to exchange data with ESIM384 system. Due to battery saving reasons, all ELDES wireless
devices operate in sleep mode. The data exchange will occur instantly if the wireless device is triggered (zone alarm or tamper alarm) or
periodically when the wireless device wakes up to transmit the supervision signal, based on Test Time value, to the system as well as to ac-
cept the queued up command (if any) from the system. By increasing the Test Time period, EWS2/EWS3 siren response time will decrease.
Example: The alarm occurred at 09:15:25 and the system queued up the command for EWS3 siren to start sounding. By default, Test Time
value of EWS3 siren is 7 seconds, therefore EWS2 siren will sound at 09:15:32.
By default, the Test Time period is as follows (customizable):
• EWKB4, EWD3: every 5 minutes.
• EKB3W, EWD2, EWP2, EWP3: every 60 seconds.
• EWM1, EW2, EWF1, EWF1CO: every 30 seconds.
• EWS2, EWS3: every 7 seconds.
To set a dierent Test Time value, please refer to the following conguration method.

This operation may be carried out from the PC using the ELDES Conguration software.
NOTE: Test Time aects the wireless device pairing process due to the alarm system listening for the incoming data from the wireless device.
The system pairs with the wireless device only when the rst data packet is received.
