    1.0 Premier Elite 8XP-W & 32XP-W 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.
  • Page 4: Ricochet V3.Xx And Above

    2.0 Ricochet V3.xx and above Premier Elite Series™ control panels with V4.xx firmware now contains additional Ricochet V3 capability. This new technology adds new features and functions for Ricochet enabled security systems. DO NOT mix V1 &V2/V3 expanders on the same Premier Elite panel V3 Expander Diagnostics V3 expanders have the ability to display diagnostic information about devices.
  • Page 5 Expanders can be replaced without the need to relearn devices This only applies if devices were originally learned to a V4 panel. V3 Multiple Expander Support V2 introduced multiple expander support to the system allowing for greater flexibility in system design, and also taking wireless capability to new levels. Control Panel Capacity The table below details the maximum number of expanders, devices and Premier Elite SmartKey™...
  • Page 6: System Requirements

    2.1 System Requirements To enable all of the advanced functionality and diagnostics capability for Ricochet V3 the following are minimum requirements:- Wintex™ Version 6.2 Build 4 or later Ricochet Monitor™ 0.2.18.5.1 or later Premier Elite™ Series V4.xx or later Premier Elite™32XP-W & 8-W Expanders V3.xx or later Expander firmware version can be found on the round green sticker located on the RH side of the PCB.
  • Page 7 expanders are in their final location, this is critical on larger systems where multiple expanders are being used Devices should be at least 30cm’s away but no further than 10m 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 expander first and then working outwards so that the last devices installed are those furthest away from the expander.
