talk to using the “PANEL SELECT” knob.
B Confgure Zones.
• No zone confguration is necessary for installations with normally

Advanced Setup
MOUNT AND WIRE
A Select a mounting position and location.
• Mount the translator at least 5 feet from the Control Panel’s
receiver.
• Do NOT mount the translator in a metal can or on a metal
surface.
• Verify adequate RF signal strength at the panel before
permanently mounting.
B Wire the zones.
• End of line resistors are not required.
• Normally closed zones may have end of line resistors up to
15k ohms.
• Normally open zones may have end of line resistors down
to 750 ohms.
• Do NOT put power on zone input terminals.
• The plastic loops along the bottom edge of the translator
housing may be used to secure the zone wiring with tie
wraps.
C Connect 12VDC output to powered zones, if any.
• 12VDC output of the translator must be used to power any
powered zones. Do NOT use an external power supply to
power zones.
D Connect the power supply to the translator using either the
supplied barrel connector or fying leads.
• Translator has a 90 second lockout after power up.
During this time no zone activity will be transmitted and the
green and red LEDs will alternate on and off every second.
• Rotate the barrel plug down to the right so the wires exit the
enclosure through the strain relief area.
• Ensure the backup battery connector is plugged into the
translator.
• The power transformer must be plugged into a non-switched
outlet.
• In the United States, the transformer must be secured to
an outlet.
• In Canada, the transformer must NOT be secured to an
outlet.
TRANSLATOR CONFIGURATION
A Select the brand of panel that the translator must talk to
using the “PANEL SELECT” knob.
B Confgure Zones:
• Zone confguration is not necessary for installations with
normally closed zones that don’t require tamper detection.
Installations with other zone types: Follow steps below.
a) Put all zones into normal (non-alarm) state.
b) Press and release the CONFIGURE button to enter
translator confguration mode. The yellow LED will turn on
when confguration mode is entered. Confguration mode
can not be entered during the 90 second power up lockout.
• Translator will learn normal state for each zone.
• Zone tampers will now be detected, but are transmitted
to the panel as “alarm.”
c) [Optional] Cycle each zone to alarm and back to normal.
• Zone tampers will now be transmitted to the panel as
“tamper.”
d) Press CONFIGURE button to exit translator confguration
mode. The yellow LED will turn off when the translator
confguration mode is exited.
• Normally closed zones can be cycled at the sensor, or by a
break-and-make at the connection to the translator.
• Normally open zones can be cycled at the sensor, or by a
shorting across the connection to the translator.
TRANSLATOR CONFIGURATION (continued)
• Confguration mode ends automatically when the cover is
closed or 30 minutes after the last action.
• When re-entering translator confguration mode, zones must be
in their normal state. However, previously programmed
settings are retained for each zone. There is no need to re-
confgure every zone if the intention is to modify a subset of
the zones.
• Confguration mode is locked out 24 hours after power-up.
To re-enable confguration mode, the translator must be power-
cycled by removing both the 12VDC input power and backup
battery for at least 5 seconds.
PANEL ENROLLMENT
A Enroll Translator into Panel:
• Trip the cover tamper to enroll the translator into the panel.
-or-
• Enter ID into panel. The translator’s base ID is printed on
the bar code label and ends with a 0.
(For Honeywell® and 2GIG® panels, select loop 1)
B Enroll Zones into panel (non-Cryptix Installations):
• With the cover open, trip each zone to send an enrollable
zone transmission to the panel.
-or-
• Enter ID into panel. The zone ID is the translator’s base ID
with the last digit replaced with zone number 1-8.
C Finish setup of each zone at the panel. Below are guidelines
on how to enroll the translator and zones into your panel.
Refer to the panel installation manual for complete panel
instructions.

FINISH
A Close the cover. Test and verify proper operation at the
panel. Ensure all zone alarms are reported properly to the
central station.
B Translator Locking: Locking the translator locks all
translator confguration settings and provides takeover
protection.
a) Ensure all zones are functioning as desired.
b) Carefully review the effects of translator locking before
proceeding:
• Translator can not be factory defaulted.
• Existing zone confgurations can not be changed.
• Panel selection can not be changed.
• Translator LOCKING CAN NOT BE UNDONE.
c) Open the translator cover and cut the lock wire. The green
and red LED will fash, and the sounder will beep to
confrm.
d) The translator locks automatically after 30 days of
continuous operation.
C With the cover closed, insert the cover securing screw into the
screw hole near the cover latch.
Notes
ZONES
• Translator has a 90 second lockout after power up.
During this time:
• No zone activity will be transmitted.
• Green and red LEDs will alternate on and off every second.
• Confguration mode can not be entered.
• Powered zones are turned off when the battery gets low.
• Powered zones have a four hour minimum battery backup after
power failure.
• Non-powered zones have 24-hours minimum battery backup
regardless of powered zones.
• All zone status is sent out within a couple minutes of the cover
being closed.
• If the translator loses both AC and battery backup power, zone
confguration data is retained.
• Low battery, tamper, and supervisory signals are reported by the
translator on its base zone with ID ending in “0”.
• Zone ID’s are the translator’s base ID with the last digit replaced
with the zone number 1-8.
• Low battery signals from the translator are suppressed in the frst
24 hours after power-up. However, a missing battery condition is
reported right away.
FAULT CONDITIONS
• 12VDC output fault: Flashes and beeps every 10 seconds on the
green LED and sounder.
• 12VDC input overvoltage fault: Continually fashes and beeps on
the green LED and sounder.
• 12VDC input removed fault: Green LED turns off and the
sounder makes a long beep.
FACTORY DEFAULT
• To return the translator to a factory default condition, press and
hold the confgure button. After a couple seconds, the sounder
will start beeping rapidly. Continue holding the button until the
sounder stops beeping.
• Factory default is not possible if the translator is locked.
