Programming A Wireless Fire Zone With A Spectra System - Paradox MG-RCV3 Reference & Installation Manual

2. Firmly screw the antenna into the connector marked ANT on the
MG-RCV3 (refer to Figure 2.1 on page 5).
3. Remove the printed circuit board (PCB) by applying outward
pressure to the mounting clips (refer to Figure 2.1 on page 5) and
then lifting the PCB.
4. Using a drill or screwdriver, punch out the four mounting holes on
the back cover (refer to Figure 2.1 on page 5).
5. Align the six orientation holes (refer to Figure 2.1 on page 5) of the
PCB with the six pins on the back cover and snap the PCB into
place. If placed correctly, the antenna will lean directly over the
groove in the back cover.
6. Temporarily mount the MG-RCV3 in its proposed location (refer to
section 2.1 on page 2) with masking tape or any other temporary
adhesive.
7. Connect the MG-RCV3 to the control panel's communication bus
(Spectra) or combus (Digiplex series) in a star or daisy chain
configuration (refer to Figure 2.2 on page 6), and then power up.
8. Verify the environment noise surrounding the MG-RCV3 (refer to
section 2.2 on page 3).
9. Temporarily mount the transmitters in their proposed locations (refer
to section 2.1 on page 2) with masking tape or any other temporary
adhesive, insert the batteries and then close the transmitters'
covers.
10. Program the system (refer to section 3.0 on page 7).
Do not cut, bend, or alter the antenna. Ensure that the electrical wires
do not cross over the antenna when connected.
For Spectra systems, do not connect more than one MG-RCV3 to the
control panel. The MG-RCV3 does not function with control panels
that have a built-in wireless receiver, such as the Spectra 1759MG.

2.3.1 Programming a Wireless Fire Zone with a Spectra System

With Spectra systems, fire zones cannot be assigned to expansion
zones. As a result, when installing a wireless smoke detector to be
used with a Spectra system, the corresponding zone must be
programmed as follows:
