Transmitter Solutions Reign XRE-100 User manual

WHAT’S INCLUDED
The REIGN XRE-100 Relay Extender is a revolutionary product that
will make any dry contact wireless with no programming or
configuration whatsoever - it literally is a plug and play device.
HOW IT WORKS...
Congratulations on your purchase of the Transmitter Solutions XRE-100 Relay Extender System. It has been
designed with state-of-the-art radio technology to extend relay closures, switches, indicators, sensors, and any
other simple ON/OFF status inputs and outputs up to 40 miles line-of-sight.
If you ordered your XRE-100s together, they are factory paired. All that is required to get up and running is 12-24
Volts AC/DC power and the DRY input closures you want to extend.
If you would like to survey the range capability before install, simply provide power to both units and press the
PROG/TEST button alternately on each unit. Successful transmission and reception will be indicated on the
transmit and receive LEDs on each unit as described below.

XRE–100
RELAY EXTENDER
There are two pieces that complete the XRE-100.
The Reign XRE-100 - Relay Extender kit includes 2- XRE-100 units. These units are interchangeable and can be
paired in the field.
Transmitter Solutions refers to the XRE-100 installed at the peripheral device as the Node and the XRE-100
installed at the primary unit the Hub. This is only important during technical support and the wiring diagram.

2. LED INDICATORS
STATUS LEDs:
RECEIVE - flashes GREEN momentarily when a valid radio transmission is received.
TRANSMIT - flashes RED momentarily when the unit transmits a packet as a result of an Relay Input change
event or handshake.
STATUS/ PROG - flashes yellow patterns indicating status of the unit: pairing, error, etc.
RUN - flashes ORANGE 1 second ON and 1 second OFF indicating the microprocessor is running.
POWER LED - Glows solid orange when power is present. 5 volt relay supply, 3.3 volt logic supply, and VPA
3.6 volt power amplifier supply.

3. RELAY DIAGRAM AND WIRING
–
RELAY INPUTS
Relay Inputs - The Reign XRE-100 comes with 2 relay inputs. Connect DRY closure from devices relay to be
extended. A closure on RLY1 input will result in a closure on RLY1 (NC/COM/NO) of the paired XRE-100. A
closure on RLY2/COM input will result in a closure on RLY2 (NC/COM/NO output) of the paired XRE-100.
RELAY OUTPUTS
Relay Outputs - The Reign XRE-100 comes with 2-relay outputs. Each output follows RELAY INPUTS from
remote paired XRE-100. When RLY1 or RLY2 INPUTS are closed RLY1 and RLY2 OUTPUTS are energized and
connect NC/COM/NO respectively. This relay state is also indicated by the GREEN ACTIVE LED above each
relay.

4. ALERT RELAYS
ALERT INPUT (when DIP switch 2 is on)
ALERT RELAY OUTPUT
Both RELAY 1 and RELAY 2 INPUTs are supervised when DIPSWITCH 2 in ON.
Supervised inputs detect fault or tampering of inputs and send an ALERT RELAY
activation to the opposite unit (Typically from the Node unit to the Base unit).
Supervised inputs will detect an input shorted to ground (or each other) or an open
input (loose or cut wire). Connect the supplied 1K ohm and 2K ohm resistors across
the device to be monitored as shown. IMPORTANT: resistors must be connected at
the device to be monitored NOT AT THE XRE-100 RELAY INPUT.
When in Supervise Mode, unused inputs must be terminated with the supplied 3K
ohm resistor. Simply insert the resistor into the Rx and COM pins on the desired
connector and tighten screw blocks.
If Supervised Inputs are not desired, simply leave DIPSWITCH 2 OFF and wire your
contact directly across the Rx and COM pins.
NOTE: Communication Loss - If the XRE-100 units stop communicating the Alert
Relay Output(Black relay) will trigger. Alerting on loss of communication between
devices.

5. DIP SWITCHES
MODE SWITCHES
SWITCH 1 – PROG (PAIR) – Pairing mode when ON and Normal operating mode when OFF
SWITCH 2 – SUPERVISED INPUTS – Supervised inputs active when ON
SWITCH 3 – COMMS LOSS BEACON – Pulses Alert Relay if ON, otherwise Relay is steady on
SWITCH 4 – Not used
SWITCH 5 – Not used
SWITCH 6 – Not used
RELAY OUTPUT SWITCH:
Relay Output Switch - not used in XRE-100 to XRE-100 Relay Extension operation.
PROGRAM/TEST BUTTON:
Program/Test Button - used with MODE SWITCH 1 to field pair units as described above. Functions as a TEST
TRANSMIT button during normal operation. When pressed, the XRE-100 will send a radio test packet and the RED
TRANSMIT LED will illuminate. If the paired XRE-100 is online, it will acknowledge with a radio test packet –
indicated by a momentary GREEN RECEIVE LED.
RELAY DELAY POTENTIOMETER:
Relay Delay Potentiometer: not used in XRE-100 to XRE-100 Relay Extension operation.

PAIRING
Flip Dipswitch 1 to ON on both units.
Press the PROG/TEST button on either unit
NOTE: Observe the STATUS/PROG LED flashing.
Flip Dipswitch 1 to OFF on both units
Press PROG/TEST and observe TRANSMIT and RECEIVE LEDs operating normally.
Pairing procedure overwrites any previous units. For example, if replacing a unit simply follow the above
procedure with the existing and replacement unit.

XRE-100 units are not communicating:
1 - Check the Run LED. Normal operation will be orange LED flashing once a second.
2 - Press the red program button on the XRE-100. When pressed, the XRE-100 will send a radio test packet and the
RED TRANSMIT LED will illuminate. If the paired XRE-100 is online, it will acknowledge with a radio test packet –
indicated by a momentary on the green receive LED.
If you do not see the transmit and receive LED lights activate:
1 - Power cycle both the XRE units.
2 - Move the XRE-100 units to a higher location and avoid mounting on/in metal objects
If you are not getting the desired range between XRE-100 units:
1 - Ensure that the both devices are powered by their own dedicated power supply
2 - Ensure that 1 amp of power draw is available to each device during transmission
3 - Move the XRE-100 units to a higher location - and avoiding mounting in/on metal objects
