Operating Principles
The RW1900-901APO REACH Wireless Manual Call Point is a
wall-mounted device that, when activated, initiates an alarm
on the fire security system. After its use the call point unit can
be simply reset with its proper key, making it immediately
ready for reactivation.
Status LED
When one or more faults are present in the system they are
shown on the LCD and the fault LED is switched on yellow.
LCD is ON only when the tamper switch is not activated
(cover open) regardless of the configuration of the translator
tamper fault. See table 1 for LED status meanings.

Device Addressing
Device addressing is handled by the REACH Wireless Loop-
Interface device (RW1700-030APO.
Devices are soft-addressed automatically when pairing with
the Loop Interface and can be changed manually. Hard-
addressing using Apollo XPERT cards are not supported.
Communication
REACH Wireless Devices use ‘radio-frequency’ wireless
communication to connect to the Loop-Interface.
The Loop-Interface (RW1700-030APO) translates the wireless
communication into wired Apollo protocol communication,
with each device addressable individually by the fire panel.
See datasheets for the Loop-Interface for more information.
Tamper detection
REACH Wireless devices contain an anti-tamper mechanism.
In the event of removal from its base, it sends a tamper
detection message to the Loop-Interface.
Tampering detection is not signalled visually by the device
LED.
