The 5881ENHC RF Receiver, 5869 Holdup Switch Transmitter and 5817CB Wireless Commercial Household
Transmitter are listed for UL Commercial Burglary applications. All other RF receivers and transmitters are not
listed for UL Commercial Burglary applications.

Wireless devices cannot be used for ULC Installations.
The following table lists the receivers that may be used and the number of zones they support.
5800 Series Receivers
RF System Operation and Supervision
The 5800 RF system operation has the following characteristics:
• The receiver responds to a frequency of 345MHz.
• The receiver has a nominal range of 200 feet.
• Supervised transmitters send a supervisory signal every 70-90 minutes.
• Zones 988 and 990 are used to supervise the RF reception of receivers 2 and 1, respectively. The reception is
supervised for the following two conditions:
1. The receiver goes “deaf” (doesn’t hear from any transmitter) within a programmed interval of time (defined by
program field 1
∗
30).
2. Proper RF reception is impeded (i.e., jamming or other RF interference). The control checks for this condition
every 20 seconds.
A response type 19 (24-Hour Trouble) must be programmed for zones 990 (1
st
receiver) and 988 (2
nd
receiver) for
UL installations.
• The 5881ENHC receiver contains front and back tampers that permit its use in commercial burglary installations.
• You may only mount the 5881ENHC its own plastic housing. Otherwise, the receiver constantly reports a tamper
condition.
• The control checks the receiver connections about every 20 seconds. The receiver supervisory zone is 8 + 2-digit
receiver device address (for example, Device address 05 = supervisory zone 805).
NOTE: This zone must be programmed with a response type (e.g., type 19 24-Hour Trouble) before it supervises the
connection to the receiver.
• Use two identical receivers to provide either a greater area of coverage or redundant protection. They must be set for
different addresses.
• Any zone from 1 to 250 can be used as a 5800 Series wireless zone, with the exception of zone 64 (reserved for a
wireless keypad).
RF System Installation Advisories
• Place the receiver in a high, centrally located area. Do not place it on or near metal objects. This will decrease the
range and/or block transmissions.
• Install the RF receiver at least 10 feet from the control panel or any keypads, to avoid interference from the
microprocessors in these units.
• If dual receivers are used:
a. Both must be at least 10 feet from each other, as well as from the control panel and remote keypads.
b. Each receiver must be set to a different device address. The receiver set to the lower address is considered the
1
st
RF receiver for supervisory purposes.
c. The House IDs must be the same.
d. Using two receivers does not increase the number of transmitters the system can support (249 zones using the
5881ENHC).
Installation and Setup of the 5881ENHC RF Receiver
Take note of the address you select for the RF receiver, as this address must be enabled in the system’s Device
Programming in the #93 Menu Mode.
