The VRP-433 is a wireless repeater designed to extend the range of BENTEL SECURITY
one-way wireless transmitters and to improve signal quality between the transmitter and
receiver. Use the VRP433 to remedy transmission problems caused by excessive noise or other
interference, or by long distances between devices and receivers. The maximum recommended
number of VRP-433’s per alarm system is 4.
Each enrolled VRP-433 occupies a zone slot. The VRP-433 does not increase the number of
supported wireless zones. This is determined by the control panel’s wireless receiver. Only zones
requiring repeat functionality need to be enrolled on the VRP-433. Ensure these zones are enrolled on
both the VRP-433 and the receiver/control panel.

Install the VRP-433 in the following order.
NOTE: When enrolling and placement testing the VRP-433 with the alarm panel, refer to the
compatible control panel installation instructions for the appropriate programming sections.
Step 1: Temporarily Mounting the VRP-433
Select a suitable location for the VRP-433. Use the following list as a guide:
• Locate device near a power outlet
• Location should be free from vibration and shock
• Mount on a flat, stable surface
• Ideal location is mid-way between the wireless transmitter and receiver. The minimum distance
between the VRP-433 and the receiver should be no less than 1 meter (3.28 feet)
Do not permanently mount the VRP-433 until it has been placement tested. Temporarily
mount the unit using tape or other non-permanent, non-marking method. If the selected
location fails the placement test, the device must be repositioned.

Step 3: VRP-433 Repeater Placement Testing (Interference
Detection)
Repeater placement test ensures the VRP-433 is located in an area with low noise and
interference and can successfully receive signals from one-way wireless devices.
To perform a Repeater placement test:
1. Press and hold Programming button for 1 second to enter Programming mode. The “Mode
Entered” tone sounds (1 long beep). Repeater placement test is continuously active until
Programming mode is exited, times out after 4 hours or cover is put back on unit.
2. If RF traffic level or noise floor level is too high, the yellow LED lights steadily. If this occurs,
reposition unit until yellow LED turns off.
3. To exit Enroll/Placement mode, press Programming button again for 1 second or place cover
back on VRP-433. The “Mode Exited” (3 beeps) tone sounds.
Step 4: Enrolling the VRP-433 with the Alarm Panel
The VRP-433 has a six-digit electronic serial number (ESN) that must be input to the alarm
panel during enrollment.
To manually enroll VRP-433, consult alarm panel installation manual.
NOTE: The VRP-433 repeater should be enrolled as a radio detector.
NOTE: For Absoluta Series, Kyo320 and KyoUnit, use the serial number beginning with “2.”
The serial number beginning with “A” is for future use.
NOTE: if there is no mains power and the battery is flat, then the alarm will go off in the area
for which the VRP-433 has been enrolled: programme the panel for the necessary reports.
Program a zone label to identify the VRP-433. e.g.,“Rpter 1 Pwr Trbl.”
Step 5: Placement Testing the VRP-433
For optimal performance between the VRP-433 and the alarm panel, the RF signal between the
two units should be as free from interference as possible.
To test the RF link between the VRP-433 and the alarm panel:
1. Place alarm panel into placement test (see panel installation instructions) and select zone
where VRP-433 is enrolled.
2. Tamper the VRP-433.
3. If alarm system indicates a weak signal or no response, check alarm panel or reposition VRP-
433 and repeat test. VRP-433 should only be placed in location where multiple good results are
received.

Step 6: Quick Enroll/Placement Testing Devices
Up to 164 1-way wireless devices can be enrolled on the VRP-433. During the first 4 hours of power
up, the VRP-433 can be placed into Enroll/Placement Test modes. After the 4 hour time-out, access
to these modes is denied and the unit must be powered up again to enter Enroll/Placement mode.
NOTE: the control panel’s software cannot be used to enroll wireless devices on the VRP-433.
All wireless devices being enrolled on the VRP-433 must also be enrolled on the receiver/control
panel.
To both enroll and placement test a device at the same time:
1. Press and hold Programming button for 1 second. “Mode Entered” tone (1 long beep) sounds.
The VRP-433 is now in Enroll/Programming mode.
2. Trip and restore zone to be enrolled 3 times:
• Door and window contact - open/close or tamper/restore
• PIR and other stationary devices - tamper/restore
• Wireless key - 3 separate button presses
3. Red LED (X) flashes until zone is enrolled. Once VRP-433 has received signal from zone,
Green LED ( ) lights for 1 second and sounder emits “Zone Enrolled” (low to high) tone.
NOTE:
• If another zone is tripped during the enroll sequence, the enroll process must be restarted
by tripping and restoring the appropriate zone 3 times.
• A VRP-433 can not enroll another VRP-433.
•Stationary (permanently mounted) devices should only be enrolled with one VRP-433. The
only exception is in Residential Fire installations, where smoke detectors that are enrolled with a
VRP-433 must be enrolled with at least two VRP-433’s.
• Fobs may be enrolled with multiple VRP-433’s.
• If an enrollment is attempted after all 164 device slots have been filled, the VRP-433 emits a 2-
second error tone and all three LEDs light for 20 seconds to indicate that no further devices may
be enrolled.
4. After zone is enrolled, trip again to perform placement test (to test the signal between the
wireless device and the VRP-433). Green LED flashes if signal is received.
• If “Good Zone Placement” tone (1 beep) sounds, device location is satisfactory and unit may be
permanently mounted.
• If “Bad Zone Placement” tone (3 beeps) sounds, reposition device and trip zone again. Continue
until “Good Zone Placement” (1 beep) tone sounds.
5. Repeat steps 2-4 to enroll and placement test other zones.
• To exit, press Programming button again for 1 second or place cover back on VRP-433. “Mode
Exited” (3 beeps) tone sounds.
NOTE: If the VRP-433 tone can not be heard while testing the device, set the alarm panel
into individual placement test mode using the VRP-433 serial number. The VRP-433
placement test results are sounded through the alarm panel siren.
• Although good results may be obtained on the VRP-433, bad results are still possible from the
alarm panel due to collisions.
• Subsequent violations from an enrolled zone while the VRP-433 is in programming mode will
initiate a placement test.

7
Global Placement Testing Devices
Conduct placement testing with doors and windows both open and closed to ensure acceptable
placement. To placement test a 1-way wireless device after the initial Enroll/Placement test process:
1. Place the alarm panel into individual placement test mode for the VRP-433 zone (see control
panel installation instructions).
2. Press and hold Programming button for 1 second. “Mode Entered” tone (1 long beep) sounds.
VRP-433 is now in global placement test mode. Each zone enrolled on VRP-433 gives
placement test result when tripped.
• If “Good Zone Placement” tone (1 beep) sounds, device location is satisfactory and unit may be
permanently mounted.
• If “Bad Zone Placement” (3 beeps) tone sounds, reposition device and trip zone again. Continue
until “Good Zone Placement” tone (1 beep) sounds.
3. To exit, press Programming button again for 1 second or place cover back on the VRP-433.
“Mode Exited” (3 beeps) tone sounds.
Step 7: Mounting the VRP-433
Permanently mount the VRP-433 only after completing multiple successful placement tests.
To mount the VRP-433:
1. Ensure AC wire is run through channel on back of VRP-433.
2. Remove front cover and secure unit to wall through mounting holes using all 4 wall plugs and
screws provided.
3. Place cover back on VRP-433.
4. Plug AC adaptor into unswitched AC outlet.
Restoring the VRP-433 to Factory Defaults
To restore factory default settings:
1. Within 1 minute of power up, press and hold Programming button for 10 seconds. Sounder
beeps after first second to indicate VRP-433 is in Installer mode. After 10 seconds, VRP-433
emits double long tone and all LEDs light.
2. Release Programming button and immediately press and hold again for 10 seconds. After 10
seconds, VRP-433 emits a 4-second tone and all three LEDs flash.
NOTE: The second button press must occur within 20 seconds of the first or the VRP-433
will exit Enroll/Placement mode.
3. VRP-433 beeps three times and LEDs return to normal state, indicating Installer mode exit. If
Installer mode exits before reset is complete, due either to time-out or tamper, repeat procedure.

transmission provoqués par un bruit excessif ou autre interférence ou par de grandes distances
entre les dispositifs et les récepteurs. Le nombre maximum recommandé de VRP-433 par
système d'alarme est 4.
REMARQUE: Chaque VRP-433 enregistré occupe un emplacement de zone. Le VRP-433
n'augmente pas le nombre de zones sans fil prises en charge. C'est le récepteur sans fil du pan-
neau de contrôle qui le détermine. Seules les zones exigeant la fonctionnalité répéteur doivent
être enregistrées sur le VRP-433. Vérifiez que ces zones sont enregistrées à la fois sur le VRP-
433 et le récepteur/panneau de contrôle.
Le VRP-433 est compatible avec les dispositifs sans fil BENTEL SECURITY suivants :
REMARQUE: VRP-433 n'est pas compatible avec les dispositifs à communication bilatérale.

Installez le VRP-433 dans l’ordre suivant :
REMARQUE: Lorsque vous enregistrez et faites un test de portée du VRP-433 avec le pan-
neau d'alarme, consultez les instructions d'installation du panneau de contrôle compatible
pour les sections de paramétrage appropriées.
Étape 1 : Installation temporaire du VRP-433
Choisissez un endroit approprié pour le VRP-433. Utilisez la liste suivante pour vous guider:
• Placez le dispositif près d’une prise électrique
• L’emplacement ne doit pas subir de vibration ou de choc
• Installez sur une surface plane et stable
• L’emplacement idéal est au milieu entre l’émetteur sans fil et le récepteur. La distance minimale
entre le VRP-433 et le récepteur doit être d'au moins 1 mètres (3.28 pieds).
N’installez pas le récepteur définitivement avant d’avoir fait le test de portée.
Installez temporairement le dispositif à l’aide de ruban adhésif ou autre méthode non
permanente qui ne laisse pas de traces. Si l’emplacement choisi ne passe pas le test de portée,
le dispositif doit être déplacé.
Étape 2 : Mise sous tension
Connectez la pile de secours d’abord, puis branchez au secteur :
Pour connecter la pile :
1. Ouvrez le couvercle avant précautionneusement en mettant la tête plate d'un petit tournevis
dans les trous prévus à cet effet (voir Figure 3).
2. Connectez le câble de batterie à la borne sur la carte de circuit imprimé.
Selon l’état de charge de la pile, un trouble pile faible pourrait être enregistré à la première
mise sous tension. Le trouble pourrait prendre plusieurs heures avant d’être résolu.
Pour connecter l’adaptateur c.a.
1. Faites passer le fil c.a. dans le canal au dos du VRP-433 et passez-le dans le trou du boîtier.

2. Connectez les fils c.a. aux bornes de la carte de circuit imprimé (voir Figure 4).
3. Faites passer le fil dans les pattes de fixation pour qu’il reste bien à sa place.
4. Branchez l’adaptateur c.a. dans la prise de courant murale.
Étape 3 : Test de portée du répéteur VRP-433 (Détection des
interférences)
Le test de portée du répéteur assure que le VRP-433 est placé à un endroit où il y a peu de bruit
et d’interférence et où il peut recevoir sans problème les signaux des dispositifs sans fil à
communication unilatérale.
Pour effectuer un test de portée du répéteur :
1. Appuyez et maintenez la Bouton Programmation pendant une seconde pour entrer dans le
mode de programmation. La tonalité « Entrée dans le mode » (1 long bip) est émise Le test de
portée est continuellement actif jusqu’à ce que l’on sorte du mode de programmation, qui
expire 4 heures plus tard ou lorsque le couvercle est remis sur le dispositif.
2. Si le niveau de trafic RF ou le niveau du plancher de bruit est trop élevé, le voyant DEL jaune
s’allume en continu sur le VRP-433. Si cela se produit, déplacez le dispositif jusqu’à ce que le
voyant jaune s’éteigne.
3. Pour sortir du mode Enregistrement/Test de Portée, appuyez à nouveau sur la Bouton
Programmation pendant une seconde ou replacez le couvercle sur le VRP-433. La tonalité de
« Sortie du mode » est émise.

Étape 4 : Enregistrez le VRP-433 sur le panneau d'alarme
Le VRP-433 possède un numéro de série électronique (NSE) à six chiffres qui doit être entré
dans le panneau d’alarme durant l’enregistrement.
Pour enregistrer manuellement le VRP-433, consultez le manuel d’installation du panneau.
REMARQUE: Le répéteur VRP-433 doit être enregistré comme un détecteur sans fil.
REMARQUE: Pour Absoluta, Kyo320, et KyoUnit, utilisez le numéro de série commençant
par un « 2 ». Le numéro de série commençant par un « A » est destiné aux panneaux futurs.
REMARQUE: L'absence d'alimentation et la batterie déchargée provoquent l'alarme de la
zone dans laquelle le VRP-433 a été enregistré : programmer la centrale pour les signalisations
nécessaires. Programmez une étiquette de zone pour identifier le VRP-433. Par ex., « Rpter 1
Pwr Trbl. »
Étape 5 : Test de portée du VRP-433
Pour une performance optimale entre le VRP-433 et le panneau d'alarme, le signal RF entre les
deux unités doit avoir aussi peu d'interférences que possibles.
Pour tester le lien RF entre le VRP-433 et le panneau d’alarme :
1. Faites un test de portée pour le panneau d’alarme (voir les instructions d’installation du
panneau) et choisissez la zone dans laquelle le VRP-433 est enregistré.
2. Sabotez le VRP-433.
3. Si l'alarme indique un signal faible ou pas de réponse, vérifiez le panneau ou repositionnez le
VRP-433 et refaites le test. Le VRP-433 ne doit être placé qu’à un endroit où plusieurs bons
résultats sont reçus.
