Paradox MG-RCV3

Magellan Wireless Expansion Module 15
6.0 Supervision Options
The MG-RCV3 offers a variety of supervision options that allows the module to
monitor the status of the module, detectors, and door contacts.
6.1 Low Battery Supervision
SPECTRA: NO PROGRAMMING REQUIRED
DIGIPLEX SERIES: SECTION [001]: OPTION [1]
For Spectra systems, there is no programing required for this feature. When
the battery voltage of an Magellan wireless transmitter drops below a
recommended level, its red LED will flash and it will transmit a signal to the
MG-RCV3 indicating that the voltage is low. The MG-RCV3 will then send the
report to the Spectra control panel, which will generate a trouble and can
transmit the signal to the monitoring station (refer to the Spectra Reference &
Installation Manual).
When connected to a Spectra control panel, the Wireless Transmitter
Low Battery Supervision feature must be enabled.
For Digiplex series systems, option [1] enables the Low Battery Supervision
feature. When a transmitter’s battery voltage drops below a recommended
level, its red LED will flash and it will transmit a signal to the MG-RCV3
indicating that the voltage is low. If this option is enabled, the MG-RCV3 will
transmit the signal to the control panel, which will generate a trouble and can
transmit a report code to the monitoring station (refer to the appropriate
Digiplex series Reference & Installation Manual).
Please note that certain transmitters are not equipped with a red LED.

In step 5 in section 3.2 on page 8:
1. Enter section [001].
2. Enable or disable option [1].
Option [1] OFF= Low Battery Supervision disabled
