Introduction
The HSM2HOSTx two-way wireless transceiver adds wireless capability to PowerSeries Neo alarm con-
trollers, model HS2128, HS2064, HS2032 or HS2016. The HSM2HOST receives signals from wireless
zones and wireless keys, and provides information to the alarm controller it is connected to. This manual
describes how to install, program and maintain the HSM2HOST. Note that only one HSM2HOST or one
RFK keypad can be enrolled on the alarm system.
Before installing:
1. Plan the placement and wiring of the security system (see system installation manual).
2. Install the control panel and optional modules.
3. Temporarily mount all wireless devices in the intended location.
Installation Process Overview
To install and set up the HSM2HOST and wireless devices:
1. Temporarily mount and wire the HSM2HOST module (See "Mounting" on page 8).
2. Enroll the HSM2HOST and first wireless keypad (See "Enroll The HSM2HOST" on page 8).
3. Check the location for RF interference levels (See "[804][801] RF Jam Detect" on page 11).
4. Enroll wireless devices (See "[804][000] Enroll Wireless Devices" on page 10).
5. Complete zone and other programming on the system (See "Wireless Device Setup and Pro-
gramming" on page 10).
6. Test the placement of all the wireless devices (See "[904] Placement Testing Wireless Devices" on
page 13).
7. Permanently mount the HSM2HOST and wireless devices (See "Permanently Mount" on page 9).
Controls and Indicators
Status LEDs
The LEDs on the front of the HSM2HOST provide feedback regarding the installation, operation and
troubleshooting of the unit. The LEDs function as follows:
Red LED Operation
Module Power Up: On steady during module power-up sequence then off.
Firmware Update: Slow flashing = update in progress
Rapid flashing = update failed
Trouble Condition: lNo trouble: 1 rapid flash every 10 seconds.
If troubles are present, a series of flashes occur every 2 seconds. Each series
of flashes indicate troubles as follows:
l1 flash: Module not enrolled
l2 flashes: Loss of contact with module for over 60 seconds
l3 flashes: Corbus low voltage
l8 flashes: RF interference (jam condition)
Module Con-
firmation:
Flashes rapidly during module confirmation process.
Placement Test: On steady when location is bad. Off when location is good.
Green LED Operation
Placement Test: On steady when location is suitable. Off when location is unsuitable.
Note: For UL/ULC listed systems, signal must be “Strong”. See Wireless Device
Status Indications on page 10 for details.
Introduction

Tamper
The HSM2HOST has separate built-in wall and case tampers. The case tamper is disabled by default on
the NA version (enabled on EU version).
Section [804][810] option 3 enables or disables the case tamper. Enable or disable the wall tamper by
fastening the breakaway wall tamper bracket securely to the wall using one of the supplied screws.
The case tamper activates when the case is opened and restores when the case is closed. The wall tamper
on the back of the unit is depressed by the mounting surface when properly installed. If the unit is
removed, the tamper activates. Ensure the mounting surface is smooth and free of obstructions that block
access to the rear of the unit. Electrical wires should not run over or under the module when it is moun-
ted.
Note: The built in wall and case tamper must be installed and enabled for UL/ULC listed Commercial/
Residential Burglary applications.

Setup and Wiring
This section describes how to set up and wire the HSM2HOST module.
Mounting
Note: Permanently mount the HSM2HOST receiver and wireless devices AFTER placement testing each
device (See "[904] Placement Testing Wireless Devices" on page 13).
Find a place that is:
ldry,
lwithin operating temperature range,
lcentral to the proposed placement of all wireless devices,
las high as possible. The range is reduced if mounted below ground level,
lfar from sources of interference, including: electrical noise (computers, televisions, electric motors,
appliances, heating and air conditioning units), large metal objects like heating ducts and plumb-
ing which may shield the electro-magnetic waves,
lsmooth and free of obstructions that block access to the rear of the unit.
Connect the HSM2HOST
Caution: Remove all power (AC, DC, telephone lines) from the system while connecting modules to the
Corbus.
To connect the HSM2HOST:
1. With the alarm panel powered down, connect the HSM2HOST to the four-wire Corbus of the
alarm panel according to Figure 1.
2. Once the wiring is complete, power up the security system.
Figure: 1 Wiring Diagram
Enroll The HSM2HOST
The HSM2HOST must be enrolled onto the alarm panel before any wireless devices can be enrolled.
When the alarm system is powered up for the first time, the first keypad or the HSM2HOST (if using a
wireless keypad as the first keypad) can be enrolled.
To do this:
1. Once the HSM2HOST is wired to the alarm panel and power has been applied, power up a wire-
less keypad.
2. Press any button on the keypad to enroll it on the HSM2HOST. The HSM2HOST is then auto-
matically enrolled on the alarm panel.
Alternately, enroll the HSM2HOST on the system at any time using the following procedure:
1. Enter Installer Programming section [902][000] (Auto Enroll All Modules). Modules are auto-
matically detected in the following order:
1– Keypads
2 – Zone Expander

3 – Output Module
4 – HSM2HOSTx
5 – Audio Verification Module
6 – Power Supply 1A
2. When prompted, press [*] to enroll.
Or another Alternate method,
1. Enter Installer Programming section [902][001] (Enroll Modules).
2. When prompted, key in the serial number found on the back of the module. The module is
enrolled.
Delete the HSM2HOST
To remove the HSM2HOST from the system:
1. Enter Installer Programming section [902][106] (Delete HSM2HOSTx).
2. Press [*] to delete.
Permanently Mount
Once a suitable location is found, mount the HSM2HOST as follows:
1. Pull the Corbus wires through the holes at the back of the cabinet.
2. Mount the cabinet securely to the wall using the three screws supplied.
3. To enable the wall tamper, fasten the breakaway wall tamper bracket securely to the wall using
the supplied screw.
