RPT1+
Wireless Repeater Module
Installation Manual
Introduction
The RPT1+ Wireless Repeater module will improve the range of your
Magellan system. It also improves the range of the RTX3 when used with
any Spectra SP control panel. It does this by retransmitting information
from zones, PGMs, wireless keypads, and the control panel. Wireless
sirens are not compatible with the RPT1+. With the RPT1+, all remote
control signals are always repeated. You can have two RPT1+s per system
(refer to the appropriate programming guide for instructions). The Wireless
Repeater also provides one zone input with two-way wireless
communication with the system.

Installation
1. Write down the serial number and location of the RPT1+ for later
reference in order to insert into the Paradox BabyWare software.
2. Ensure that the RPT1+ is installed in a location free of obstacles.
3. Connect the Li-iOn battery.
4. Connect to a 12-24 Vac transformer or 12-24 Vdc power supply.
5. Connect hardwired zones to input Z1 and COM.
Note: If you wish to have a trouble tamper, the RPT1 zone (Z1) must
be programmed in the panel.
6. Set jumper JP1 ON (default) for Normally Closed Zones or set jumper
JP1 OFF for Normally Open Zones.
7. Register the zone by entering the RPT1+’s serial number in the
appropriate system Zone Serial Number section or by using the
Installer Quick Menu.
Note: Do not cut, bend or alter the antenna. Avoid mounting the RPT1+ on
metal, or in any location that could cause RF interference. Mount it as high
as possible and in locations not susceptible to drastic temperature
changes. Mount the RPT1+ in a location that allows at least 5 cm (2”)
around the module for adequate ventilation and heat dissipation.
Programming
For a summary of programming sections, refer to the table below. For
