RP-600 PG2
Wireless Repeater for PowerG Systems
Installation Instructions
1. INTRODUCTION
The RP-600 PG2 is a range extender designed to relay digital data
between wireless PowerG control panel devices and a PowerG
control panel. Repeater links are required when the control panel is
beyond the range of at least some of the devices and is therefore
incapable of receiving transmissions directly (see Figure 3).

2. INSTALLATION
2.1 Repeater's Location Selection
A. In a repeater setup, install the repeater where good
communication is assured with the target receiver and with the
transmitters deployed in the repeater's coverage area.
B. Mount the repeater as high as possible above the floor and well
away from metal chimneys, large metal cabinets, metal doors and
reinforced concrete walls, all of which may reduce the
communication range.
C. Make sure that the location you have selected is near an electrical
outlet.

Attention! For Europe, the
transformer has to be CE

limited.
Note: The manufacturer of the
transformer is ORIENTAL
HERO, model no. OH-35048AT
rated 8.6VAC 0.33A. For UL
installations (UL) the plug-in
transformer must have
restraining means. For Canada
(CUL), it cannot have restraining
means.

3. CONFIGURATION AND OPERATION
Service Messages
Five kinds of event codes are automatically included in a service
transmission in addition to the repeater’s:
AC fail Low Battery End of life Tamper Supervision.
Upon power failure, recharging stops and the backup battery takes over.
It is therefore correct to assume that without power input the battery is
gradually weakening and may be reported as “low”.
Power / battery restore is reported only in the following test report.
End of life is reported when battery power is depleted and device is
about to shut down.
Tamper restore is reported immediately upon occurrence.
If the tamper or power failure condition persists long enough,
respective alerts will be sent out again with each test report.

5. LOCAL DIAGNOSTICS TEST
Before testing, separate the base from the cover (see Fig. 2).
A. Press the self-test button once and release it:
The red LED and then the green LED will switch ON and then OFF in
turn to indicate that the repeater is now fully operational.
B. After 2 seconds the LED blinks 3 times.
The following table indicates received signal strength indication.
LED response Reception
Green LED blinks Strong
Orange LED blinks Good
Red LED blinks Poor
No blinks No communication
IMPORTANT! Reliable reception must be assured. Therefore, "poor"
signal strength is not acceptable. If you receive a "poor" signal from
the device, re-locate it and re-test until a "good" or "strong" signal
strength is received.
1. For detailed Diagnostics Test instructions refer to the control panel
Installer Guide.
2. For UL/CUL installations, the test result must be “Strong”.

7. NOTES AND WARNINGS
7.1 Product Limitations
Visonic Ltd. wireless systems are very reliable and are tested to high
standards. However, due to their low transmitting power and limited
range (required by FCC and other regulatory authorities), there are
some limitations to be considered:
A. Receivers may be blocked by radio signals occurring on or near
their operating frequencies, regardless of the code selected.
B. Wireless equipment should be tested regularly to determine whether
there are sources of interference and to protect against faults.
8 COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS

FCC Compliance Statement
The digital circuitry of this device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in residential installations. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio and
television reception. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this device does cause such
interference, which can be verified by turning the device off and on, the user is encouraged to eliminate the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
– Re-orient or re-locate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the distance between the device and the receiver.
– Connect the device to an outlet on a circuit different from the one which supplies power to the receiver.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician.
WARNING! To comply with FCC and IC RF exposure compliance requirements, the repeater should be located in a distance of at least 20 cm
from all persons during normal operation. The antennas used for this product must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
Interference Prevention
This device complies with FCC Rules Part 15 and with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference that may be received or that
may cause undesired operation.
WARNING! Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to
operate the equipment.
