5. Press the Reset button to initialize the transmitter.
1.5 Select the Frequency Band
EchoStream products are able to use a range of radio
frequencies, and must be configured for your geographic area.
To configure the transmitter:
1. Place a selection jumper on the appropriate frequency band
selection pins.
• Place the jumper on the right two pins, marked NZ, to set
the frequency range to 921-928 MHz for New Zealand.
• Place the jumper on the left two pins, marked AU, to set the
frequency range to 915-928 MHz for Australia.
• Leave the jumper off the pins to set the frequency range to
902-928 MHz for North America.
2. Press the Reset button to complete configuration.
Caution: When pressing the Reset button, make sure you don't
also touch the frequency band selection pins. Touching the
frequency band selection pins while pressing the Reset button
can inadvertently set the EN1210W to the wrong frequency
band.
2 Select Input Type
The N/O-N/C selection pins allow the choice of a normally open
or normally closed state for the contact circuit wired to the input
terminal.
The transmitter is shipped set for normally open, with a selection
C
jumper on the N/O selections pins.
1. Place a selection jumper on the selection pins to select
normally open; remove the selection jumper from the
selection pins to select normally closed.
2. Press the Reset button to complete configuration.
Caution: If only the reed switch and magnet are to be used,
normally open should be selected.
2.1 Register the EN1210W
Transmitters must be registered with the system in order to be
monitored and supervised. Transmitters send a check-in
message every three minutes. Each transmitter has a unique
factory-programmed identification number.
Refer to the receiver installation instructions for details on
registering a transmitter.
1. When prompted by the receiver to reset transmitter, press
the Reset button.
2. Replace the cover.
3. Test the EN1210W by activating each of the conditions and
ensuring an appropriate response.
2.2 Mount the EN1210W
1. Mount the bracket on the wall with the screws provided,
ensuring room for the magnet where indicated by the
mounting directions on the inside of the bracket.
Mount the
magnet per the
mounting
directions on
the inside of the
bracket
2. Mount the magnet where indicated by the mounting arrow on
the inside of the bracket,
3. Clip the transmitter onto the bracket. Hook the bottom catch
first, then press the top into place.
4. The housing may be secured with a third mounting screw,
located beneath the battery.
Note: Accessing this screw on an active transmitter requires
opening the housing and removing the battery, causing a tamper
condition.
5. To dismount the EN1210W, pull the transmitter housing
carefully out of the mounting bracket from the top.
3 Operate the EN1210W
The transmitter has one internal contact magnetic reed switch.
The magnet should be parallel with the reed switch. The
maximum operating gap between the magnet and the reed
switch is 16mm (5/8"). The transmitter can monitor internal and
external contacts at the same time.
Caution: The EN1210W contains both a wired input and an
input activated by a reed switch and magnet. The reed switch
and magnet MUST be used unless the application (control
panel) specifically supports both inputs as separate devices; use
of the wired input is optional.
