RE208 Hardwire-to-Honeywell
®
Wireless Translator™
Features
•Converts hardwire zones into Honeywell-compatible wireless signals.
•8 Hardwire loops with end-of-line resistor detection.
•Unique wireless ID for each zone, plus 1 for main device.
•Transmit diversity for long reliable range.
•PIR powering (via external supply).
•3 year operation on batteries (contacts only).
•Complete supervision of zone tampers and low battery.
Key Instructions
•Use with normally closed contacts in-line with .7 K-ohms end-of-line resistors.
•Not for use with life safety devices, such as Smoke or CO sensors.
•External supply requirements (wall-AC): 12V DC at least 50 mA.
•PIR & Glassbreak (powered devices) usage:
-wire devices only. Not for use with 2-wire powered devices.
2 AA back-up batteries will drive contacts only, and cannot drive a PIR.
Under external supply failure, the PIR/Glass would likely alarm.
If using PIR/Glass, we recommend using 12V DC, 2 -hour back-up supply.
If using old panel 12V DC supply, verify operation and old battery.
•Enrolling:
Hardwire zones (labeled “Loops” on the circuit board terminals):
•Hardwire zones are enrolled into Honeywell system using the RF Learning
tripping enrollment mode.
•Input Type: 3 (Supervised RF), Loop: 2
•When prompted, open/close each zone twice
(fault/restore/fault/restore) to enroll the serial number.
Translator itself. Trouble supervision of the Translator itself is recommended;
Assign the Translator to a zone for sending check-in supervisories, cover
tamper and low battery.
•Zone Type: 8 (2 hour Aux) – When cover opened: “fault” when system
not armed, “alarm” when armed.
•Input Type: 3 (Supervised RF), Loop:
•When prompted, toggle the tamper switch to enroll the serial number.
O eration
•8 Hardwire .7K-ohm Zones – transmit 8 unique wireless IDs:
Alarm on open circuit. Tamper on short circuit.
Supervisories, every hour for each zone.

unique ID):
Tamper, when cover opened.

Supervisory every hour.
•How ID’s work: If the Translator Main Zone is XXX-YYY0, then the Zone 1’s ID is
XXX-YYY1, and Zone 2’s ID is XXX-YYY2, etc.
•LED Operation
Green LED: On if AC power present.
Red LED: When 12V DC is present: “Blinks” on transmit to panel;
“on” if device tamper or device low battery.
