S4
Please follow the relevant Receivers Installation instructions to programming the unit to a receiver.
The S4 is compatible to the following Receiver models:
Model: RX1-150; Model: RX2-150; Model: RX3-150; Model: RX1-500; Model: RX4-500; Model: MB4000
Compatible receivers
Warranty
This product is sold subject to our standard warranty conditions and is warrantied against defects in workmanship
for a period of two years.
1. Select the ON OFF function jumper on both the receiver you are programming and the S4.
Note: Make sure the receiver is defaulted & remove any wires from the S4 channel inputs.
2. Press the ADVANCE button on the S4. Channel 1 LED will switch on.
3. Press the LEARN button on the receiver. The receiver beeps once.
4. Press the TRANSMIT button on the S4. This activates the ON signal. The LED will flash 5 times.
The receiver will beep a few times acknowledging that it is learning the signal.
5. Press the LEARN button on the Receiver again. The receiver beeps twice.
6. Press the ADVANCE Button on the S4. The LED will flash continuously.
7. Press the TRANSMIT button to learn in the OFF signal on to the receiver. The receiver will beep a
few times acknowledging that it is learning the signal.
9. Follow steps 2 to 7 for each Channel following or just keep pressing the ADVANCE button until
the unit steps past Channel 4 and the LED’s start to running to indicate the unit is in standby.
10. Test that the ON /OFF function is working correctly by triggering the channel inputs with a wire
connected to either POSITIVE or NEGATIVE
ON / OFF functionality explained
Once the ON/OFF jumper is connected, the transmitter will transmit a signal encoded to switch a receivers relay contact
either ON or OFF depending on the transmitters trigger input condition. The function will only work on ON / OFF
(enabled receiver units). This functionality ensures the unit does not get out of sequence with the receiver as with
normal latching/unlatching functions. If you are using a different 12V power-source to that of the transmitter, then it is
recommended to common up on the Ground / Negative so that all the devices have a common negative reference.
TA-2017/1572
APPROVED
Supervision functionality explained
The SUPERVISION Jumper enables the unit to transmit out a system alive signal every 60 minutes.
This function will only be compatible to receivers that have SUPERVISION enabled firmware.
Please refer to the relevant receivers installation manual for a more info.
By enabling the RE-TRY jumper the unit will re-transmit out a signal every 10 minutes. This ensures the system
works reliably and does not miss any ON or OFF signals. This function will only work when the ON/OFF function
jumper is enabled.
RE-TRY jumper setting explained
NEG & POS jumper setting explained
By enabling the NEG jumper the unit will trigger when a Negative input or ground reference. The +POS jumper enables
the unit to trigger from a Positive voltage reference input.
1 & 3 jumper setting explained
By enabling the 1jumper the unit will trigger one RF signal when its input is triggered.
Jumper 3will enable the unit to trigger 3 x RF signals every time the input is triggered. We recommend setting the unit
to 3for all alarm applications.
N.C & N.O jumper setting explained
By enabling the N.C jumper the unit will trigger from Normally Closed inputs. All un-used inputs must be bridged out
when using the N.C setting. N.O will enable the unit to trigger from Normally Open inputs.

Opening the unit
Note: If Alarm panel is programmed to squawk when
armed/dissarmed, do not use the Siren output and rather
use a PGM output
Note: Link all un-used channels to NEGATIVE(-)
if the unit is set to Normally Closed (NC)
Note: Link all un-used channels to NEG(-)
if the emergency switches are wired to
Normally Closed (NC)
Wiring diagram
The plastic housing is splash proof, and may be mounted externally if
required. The unit should be mounted vertically for best performance.
Ensure that you do not mount the unit close to electric fence cables or
energizers, as these products produce extreme levels of interference
and may reduce the performance of the receiver. If mounting indoors
try and centralise the unit in the middle of the building, and keep it at
least 3 metres away from armed response company’s alarm radio
transmitters.
We recommend you mount the unit more than 3 metres above the
floor height or just above the trap door. For large properties that
require exceptional range, mount the unit externally.
Always conduct a signal range test before you hand over the
product to the client, ensuring that the systems works reliably. You
may need to move the unit if you encounter dead spots. In rare cases
you may need to install a booster repeater unit for coverage around
large multi levelled sites.
Remove the aerial and make sure the screw on the bottom side is removed.
Carefully lift the lid up from the back end and unclip the top.
