®
Wireless Translator™
Features
• Listens to both 2GIG and Honeywell protocol wireless devices.
• Also listens to old Honeywell devices from original 2GIG ta eover.
• Transmits GE protocol wireless.
• Enrolls up to 63 devices.
• Unique wireless ID for each zone, plus 1 for main device.
• All sensor alarm, supervisory and trouble signals are passed through.
• Dual antennas for both Receive and Transmit diversity for reliable range.
• Bac -up battery operation.
• Complete supervision of tampers, external power fault and low battery.
Key Instructions
• External supply: 12V DC at least 50 mA. Power terminals do not care
which wire is positive or negative!
• Mount Translator at least 20 feet from Control Panel’s receiver.
• 3 AAA Al aline batteries give 72 hours bac up if external supply fails.
INSTALL BATTERIES ONLY WHEN EXTERNAL SUPPLY IS READY TO CONNECT.
• Enrolling:
 Sensors
1. Place Panel in Learn Sensors mode.
2. Press Translator Enroll switch repeatedly until Device Type LED
matches the type of device you’re enrolling. ENROLLING AS
WRONG DEVICE TYPE CAN CAUSE IMPROPER OPERATION.
3. Activate particular 2GIG (or Honeywell) sensor as follows:
o PIR: Tamper – ENROLL PIRs FIRST
No tamper on Honeywell 5800PIR-RES: Insert battery
(Used for PIRs and Glass Brea sensors)
o Panic: Button
o Key Fob: Lower Right
o DWS: Tamper
No tamper on Honeywell DWS: Insert battery
4. Automatic responses:
o Green LED blin s on receipt of 2GIG (& HW) pac ets.
o Translator beeps on enrollment into Translator.
o Red LED blin s on transmit of GE pac et to panel.
o The Translator transmits pac ets to the panel as soon as
it learns a new sensor.
5. Panel, if in Learn Sensors mode, will generally learn the GE-
compatible pac ets simultaneously
 Main Translator device
1. Place Panel in Learn Sensors mode.
2. Press tamper switch on Translator board. Enroll in Group 10.
Translator itself never alarms, but its health needs to be
monitored li e a regular DWS.
 Delete all sensors:
1. Press enroll button repeatedly until all Device Type LEDs are
off.
2. Press and hold enroll ey for 5 seconds until beep.
 Delete just one Device Type:
1. Press enroll button repeatedly until target Device Type LED is
lit.
2. Press and hold enroll ey for 5 seconds until beep.

Operation
• Existing 2GIG (& Honeywell) protocol sensors transmit as usual.
Translator passes information on to control panel as if they were GE
transmitters.

• Translator Module Zone wireless transmission ( unique ID):
Tamper, when cover opened. Also sends restore.
Low battery, when low battery. Also sends restore.
Supervisory every hour. Supervisory stopped if 12V DC power absent.
Translator Module does not send any alarm signals about itself.
• LED Operation
 Green LED
• On if 12V DC power present.
• Blin s on receipt of Honeywell-compatible pac ets.
 Red LED
• On if device low battery (unless there’s no 12V DC
power).
• Blin s on transmit of GE-compatible pac ets.

IC: 8310A-RE124
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type
and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter y Industry Canada. To reduce potential
radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should e so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec
une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie
Canada. Dans le ut de réduire les risques de rouillage radioélectrique à l'intention des autres
utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée
équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à l'éta lissement d'une communication
satisfaisante.
This radio transmitter (identify the device y certification num er, or model num er if Category II) has
een approved y Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed elow with the maximum
permissi le gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not
included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly
prohi ited for use with this device.
Le présent émetteur radio (identifier le dispositif par son numéro de certification ou son numéro de
modèle s'il fait partie du matériel de catégorie I) a été approuvé par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner
avec les types d'antenne énumérés ci-dessous et ayant un gain admissi le maximal et l'impédance
requise pour chaque type d'antenne. Les types d'antenne non inclus dans cette liste, ou dont le gain est
