Premier Elite 12-W/24-W/48-W Quick Start Guide
Introduction
Texecom has developed a new method of wireless security signalling based on the concept of mesh networking. Mesh-networking is the process whereby every single
wireless device is capable of receiving and retransmitting any signal from any other wireless device on the network. The size, scalability and range of the entire system
are extended as wireless signalling is no longer limited by point-to point communications. The range of a Ricochet
systems, with multiple devices capable of relaying messages to and from even the most remote locations in a building. Each Ricochet enabled device provides
signalling routes to and from Premier control panels. If the wireless communication between devices weakens, the Ricochet network 'self-heals' and automatically re-
routes communications via alternate Ricochet enabled devices. The reliability of the wireless system increases as more Ricochet devices are installed. SignalSecurity™
further enhances network reliability with each device already aware of the number of communication paths available to it.

System Design Considerations

To ensure correct setup and operation of the Wireless Network it is important that the following procedures are used when learning and placing devices.
Learning Devices
All devices should be learnt before they are placed in their final location. The expander should be in commission mode, (see page 5). This will ensure that they are
registered on the receiver or control panel, and that Mesh Networks and routing are established correctly. Please refer to the relevant section in this document to Learn
Devices to the system.

Devices should be at least 30cm's away from the receiver when being learned.
Placing Devices
Once all of the devices have been learnt, they will need placing in their desired location, this should be done by installing devices closest to the Premier 48-W first and
then working outwards so that the last devices installed are those furthest away from the control panel.
Make sure to install devices with the receiver in Commission mode. (fit commission jumper see page 5).
Devices also have a commission mode which will indicate a secure and valid path of communication to the receiver. (when the tamper circuit is closed the LED will flash
to indicate communication, and then come on solid once communication has been established).

You should wait at least 20 minutes after installing the last device to make sure routing has been correctly established between all system devices.

For maximum reliability and system integrity avoid long and thin set-ups.

Devices are capable of hopping through up to two other devices, or a maximum of three hops.
