SuperBus® 2000 Commercial RF Transceiver Module
Installation Instructions
Product Summary
The SuperBus®2000 Commercial RF Transceiver Module
adds or extends a compatible panel’s wireless capabilities in
both residential and commercial installations.
The transceiver can be mounted near the panel cabinet or it
can be located up to 4,000 feet away. The transceiver mod-
ule receives information from wireless sensors and touch-
pads and sends the data to the panel, via the SuperBus 2000
digital data bus. Power for the module is provided by the
panel.
Advent®systems support up to five transceiver modules.
RF Transceiver Modules feature the following:
❑Spatial diversity reception, which minimizes wireless
signal nulls or dead spots.
❑Compatibility with all ITI®319.5 MHz crystal Learn
Mode™wireless sensors and touchpads.
❑3,500 feet typical in metal case, open air receiving
range. 2,500 feet typical in plastic case, open air receiv-
ing range.
❑Light-emitting-diodes (LEDs) indicate transceiver
module power, wireless packet reception and bus sta-
tus.
❑Two case versions, 60-821-95 (plastic) and 60-856-95
(metal).
Figure 1 shows transceiver components and the following
table describes them.
Figure 1.RF Transceiver Module Components (plas-
tic case version shown)
Tools and Supplies Needed
❑Mounting screws and anchors for plastic enclosure
(included).
❑Two 9” antennas (included).
❑Two antenna grounding screws (included in metal case
kit).
❑1/4 inch plastic spacers (included in metal case kit).
❑Small standard and Phillips screwdrivers.
❑4-conductor, 18-gauge or larger, stranded hookup wire
is recommended.
Installation Guidelines
Observe the following guidelines when installing the trans-
ceiver:
❑Advent systems can accommodate up to 250 sensors/
zones.
❑Advent systems can have up to 62 SuperBus devices.
❑Leave at least 10” above the transceiver for the anten-
nas.
❑Avoid areas that are likely to expose the transceiver to
moisture.
❑Use 4-conductor, 18-gauge or larger stranded wire from
the transceiver to the panel.

Installation
For power wiring refer to Table 1 in the Advent Panel
Installation Instructions for maximum wire length rec-
ommendations. If the maximum recommended wire
length from Table 1 must be exceeded, a remote DC
power supply will be required. When using a remote
power supply, the power and ground connections of
panel and remote supplies must remain isolated. Do not
connect panel and remote power supplies together.
❑Avoid areas with excessive metal or electrical wiring,
including furnace and utility rooms. If unavoidable,
mount on or near metal with the antennas extending
above the metallic surfaces, as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2. Mounting on or Near Metal
Installation
The transceiver can be mounted on any interior wall (pro-
tected from the elements).
To prepare for mounting (all case versions):
CAUTION
You must be free of static electricity before
handling circuit boards. Wear a grounding strap
or touch a grounded bare metal surface to dis-
charge static electricity.
Note
If possible, temporarily mount, connect, and test
the RF transceiver at the desired location to evalu-
ate performance in the particular environment.
❑Disconnect the panel backup battery and turn off power
to the AC power transformer.
Installing the Plastic Case Module

Setting the Module Device Address
Figure 9.Wiring the RF Transceiver Hardwire Zone
Setting the Module Device
Address
Each bus module connected to the panel SuperBus must
have a unique (different) device address number set for cor-
rect communication. SuperBus 2000 compatible panels
such as Advent set the bus address automatically.
Setting the Device Address for
Advent Panels
The Advent SuperBus 2000 compatible panel automatically
sets the module bus address when the module is added
(learned) into panel memory.
Power Up and Bus
Communication
Use the following procedures for powering up the system
and verifying bus communications for both new and exist-
ing installations.
New Installations
1. Verify that all wiring at the panel and the transceiver is
correct.
2. Connect the panel backup battery and the AC power
transformer. Alphanumeric touchpad displays should
come on.
3. Verify that the transceiver module green power LED is
on and the red bus LED flashes to indicate successful
communication with the panel.
Note
If the transceiver power LED is not on or the red
bus LED does not flash, unplug the panel AC
power transformer, disconnect the backup battery,
and see “Troubleshooting.”
Existing Installations
1. Verify that all wiring at the panel and the transceiver is
correct.
2. Connect the panel backup battery and the AC power
transformer. Alphanumeric touchpad displays should
come on.
3. Press 8to select System Menu.
4. Press 0to select Enter Program Mode.
5. Enter the install code (defaults to 0123).
6. Enter Item Number 48001 to add SuperBus devices.
All installed devices are automatically added (learned)
into panel memory when Devices Added is indicated.
7. Press *twice to return to the normal mode of operation
and refer to the “Testing Sensors/Inputs” section of the
panel Installation Instructions for testing module oper-
ation.
8. Verify that the transceiver module green power LED is
on and the red bus LED flashes to indicate successful
communication with the panel.
Note
If the transceiver power LED is not on or the red
bus LED does not flash, unplug the panel AC
power transformer, disconnect the backup battery,
and see “Troubleshooting.”
Wireless Sensor Programming
Refer to the panel Installation Instructions for adding
(learning) wireless devices into panel memory.
Testing
Verify that the module red bus LED flickers when wireless
devices are activated. Verify that the panel recognizes wire-
less device and hardwire zone actuation (if used).
For complete testing procedures, refer to the panel Installa-
tion Instructions.

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
Module green power LED stays off.
1. Check for incorrect wiring connections and for panel
power.
2. If the module power LED still stays off, replace the
transceiver.
Module green power LED is on, but doesn’t flicker
when wireless transmitters are tripped (no or limited
wireless operation).
1. Check transceiver antenna connections.
2. Check for transceiver antenna proximity to metal
obstructions such as ducting or AC wiring.
3. Verify sensor(s) is learned into panel memory.
4. If the transceiver still malfunctions, replace the
module.
The red bus status LED flashes, but system does not
respond.
1. Check panel/transceiver programming.
2. Delete transceiver from panel memory and relearn. See
Advent Panel Installation Instructions for specific
details.
3. If the transceiver still malfunctions, replace the
module.
