Installation & Operation Instructions
CAUTION:
DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT IN ANY SAFETY RELATED APPLICATIONS WHERE HUMAN LIFE
MAY BE AFFECTED.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The RD2402D is an output module that works with the MOD9200 series network transceivers to output two (2)
wireless digital signals (dry contact) for wireless control of modulating actuators or wireless status indications. The
network transceiver receives the wireless signal from the sensor/input concentrator and that data is sent to the
BAS via RS-485. If the BAS determines an action is needed, it then sends the command to the transceiver and the
transceiver sends that command wirelessly to the RD2402D, which then outputs a digital signal.
The maximum radio transmission distance is dependent on the building type. In a typical commercial
building with steel I-Beam construction, concrete oors with reinforcing rod, and metal stud walls, it can be
expected that transmissions will penetrate horizontally approximately 200-300 feet of oor, walls, furniture
and air.
Generally, a wireless system will cover at least three oors–one oor above, and one oor below the receiver
location. In some buildings with favorable transmission characteristics the system may cover more oors -
see FIGURE 2, p.2. Wireless sensor transmitters should be installed within 200 to 300 feet of the RM2432D
receiver.
RR2552 signal repeaters can be installed as needed to increase transmission distance between sensors and
receivers - see FIGURE 1.
PRECAUTIONS
• To maintain high performance, do not install sensors, repeaters, or receivers in the following areas:
- Inside metal enclosure / panel
- Inside or immediately next to elevator shaft or elevator banks
- In front of or immediately next to large trees or large body of water
- Do not mount above false ceiling. Mount in wall 1" below ceiling.
