GENERAL INFORMATION
The RM2402D is a wireless receiver that works with any ACI wireless sensor or input concentrator using 900 MHz
spread spectrum technology. The RM2402D has two (2) digital outputs (dry contact) and a low battery/loss of
signal digital output (dry contact) for an alarm. The sensors are programmed to the RM2402D using the
con guration software (included), a laptop, and CK2432D programming cable. The RM2402D can be used to
monitor status or alarms and is compatible with any DDC controller that accepts a dry contact closure.
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.
