Section 6. WIRELESS EXPANSION
(5800 SYSTEM)
This section provides instructions for installing 5800 series wireless
receivers and transmitters.
General Information
In addition to its basic wired zones, the control supports up to 30 wireless
zones using an appropriate 5881 (5882 in Canada) type RF receiver. The
actual number of zones supported depends on whether you are using a wired
zone expander module.
For example: If you are using only four of the wired expansion loops, a
5881H (5882H in Canada) RF Receiver could add 26 RF zones to the system,
using any unused zone numbers 10Ð38, for a combined total of 30 wired and
wireless expansion zones.
The receiver can detect signals from wireless transmitters within a nominal
range of 200 feet.
RF Receiver No. of Zones
5881L/5882L up to 8
5881M/5882M up to 16
5881H/5882H up to 30
Receiver Supervision
The receiver is supervised, and a trouble report will be generated. CHECK
and zone 09 will also be displayed.
a) If communication between the panel and the receiver is interrupted.
or
b) If no valid RF signals from at least one supervised wireless transmitter
are received within 12 hours.
House Identification
If you are using a 5804BD, 5827 or 5827BD Wireless Keypad with the
system, you must program a House ID Code (01Ð31) in field
✱
24 to establish
proper communication, and the keypad must be set to the same ID.
House ID 00 disables all wireless keypads.
Installing the 5881/5882 Receiver
RF System Installation Advisories
Disregard the following advisories if the receiver is mounted in the control
cabinet.
1. Place the RF Receiver in a high, centrally located area for best reception.
2. Do not locate the receiver or transmitters on or near metal objects. This
will decrease range and/or block transmissions.
3. Do not locate the receiver in an area of high RF interference (revealed by
frequent or prolonged lighting of the LED in the receiver. . .random
flicker is OK).
4. The RF receiver must be at least 10 feet from any remote keypads to
avoid interference from the microprocessors in those units.
