Wireless Translator™
Features
•Listens to GE protocol wireless devices: DWS, PIR, Glass Break, Fob, Panic.
•Transmits Honeywell protocol wireless.
•No sensor enrollment req ired.
•All sensor alarm, s pervisory and tro ble signals are passed thro gh.
•Main device has its own niq e ID for s pervisories, complete reporting
of main device tamper, external power s pply fa lt and low battery.
•D al antennas for both Receive and Transmit diversity for reliable range.
•Back- p battery protects d ring loss of external power.
Key Instructions
•External s pply: 12V DC at least 50 mA.
•3 AAA Alkaline batteries give 72 ho rs back p if external s pply fails.
INSTALL BATTERIES ONLY WHEN EXTERNAL SUPPLY IS READY TO CONNECT.
•Enrolling:
Power the Translator. It starts translating immediately.
Sensors are NOT enrolled in the Translator.
GE sensors may be enrolled into Honeywell system sing
the tripping enrollment mode. They are not enrolled in the
Translator.
Enroll the Translator into a zone, beca se it sends check-in
s pervisories, cover tamper and low battery messages.
•Zone Type: 8 (24 ho r A x) – When cover opened:
“fa lt” when system not armed, “alarm” when
system armed.
• Inp t Type: 3 (S pervised RF), Loop: 1
•When prompted, toggle the tamper switch to enroll
the serial n mber.
Operation
•Existing GE protocol sensors transmit as s al. Translator passes
information on to control panel as if they were Honeywell transmitters.
•GE Fob b ttons: Lock/Unlock/Light/Star, Lock + Unlock
translate to Honeywell B ttons: Off/On/Left/nothing, Right
[Loops 2/3/4/nothing, 1]

Translator Main Zone wireless transmission ( niq e ID):
Tamper, when cover opened. Also sends restore.
Low battery, when low battery. Also sends restore.
S pervisory every ho r. S pervisory stopped if 12V DC power absent.
•LED Operation
Green LED
•On if 12V DC power present.
•Blinks on receipt of GE-compatible packets.
Red LED
•On if device low battery ( nless there’s no 12V DC
power).
•Blinks on transmit of Honeywell-compatible packets.
•Application Diagram
Beca se the Translator has two antennas, for both receive
and transmit diversity, it will generally have better range
than all sensors, and many panels (partic larly those with
internal antennas).
Place the Translator generally in the center of the all the
existing sensors it needs to hear. It will have no problem
reaching the control panel.

IC Notice
This prod ct meets the applicable Ind stry Canada technical specifications/Le présent
materiel est conforme a x specifications techniq es applicables d’Ind strie Canada.
Operation is s bject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not ca se interference, and
2. This device m st accept any interference, incl ding interference that may
ca se ndesired operation of the device.
To red ce potential radio interference to other sers, the antenna type and its gain
sho ld be so chosen that the eq ivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not
more than that permitted for s ccessf l comm nication.
This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below, and having a
maxim m gain of 2 dBi. Antennas not incl ded in this list or having a gain greater than
2 dBi are strictly prohibited for se with this device. The req ired antenna impedance
is 50 ohms.
