General Information

Zones

The L5210 and L7000 controls respectively support up to 79 and 103 total wireless zones using 5800 Series
transmitters, and wireless buttons.

Range

The built-in RF receiver is capable of detecting signals from wireless transmitters within a nominal range of
200 feet.

Transmitters

5800 Series transmitters have built-in serial numbers that must be entered into the system using the
"Zones" programming section, or input to the control via the downloader. 5800 Series transmitters (except
the 5800RL) do not have DIP switches. Each transmitter's zone number is also programmed into the system
in the "Zones" programming section. Some transmitters, such as the 5816 can support more than one "zone"
(referred to as loops or inputs). On the 5816, for example, the wire connection terminal block is loop 1; the
reed contact is loop 2. Each loop must be assigned a different zone number.
For button transmitters (RF "keys") such as the 5804, a unique zone number must be assigned to each
individual button used on the transmitter. Each button on the transmitter also has a pre-designated loop or
input number, which is automatically displayed.
The 5816 Transmitters do not have EOL supervision of their loop wiring, which must not exceed 3 feet.
UL
The 5800PIR-OD, 5800RL, 5800SS1, 5804E, 5804BD, 5804BDV, 5814, 5816TEMP, 5821, 5828/5828V, 5877 and 5878 wireless
transmitters have not been evaluated by UL/ETL.

House Identification

If a 5804BD/5804BDV or 5828/5828V Wireless Keypad is being used in conjunction with the system, a RF
House Code (House ID) Code (01–31) must be programmed, (see the "System Type" programming section) to
establish proper communication, and the keypad must be set to the same code. House ID 00 disables all
wireless keypads. A House ID is not necessary for other 5800 Series transmitters.

Transmitter Supervision

With the exception of some transmitters/keypads that may be carried off-premises (5804BD, 5804BDV and
5804E), each transmitter is supervised by a check-in signal that is sent to the receiver at 70–90 minute
intervals. If at least one check-in is not received from each supervised transmitter within a 12-hour period,
the "missing" transmitter zone number(s) and "Supervision" will be displayed. The supervision for a
particular transmitter in the system that may also be carried off the premises may be turned off by entering
it as an Unsupervised type, as described in the "Program Zones" section. 5800 Series transmitters have
built-in tamper protection and will annunciate as a fault condition if covers are removed. In Canada the RF
supervision period is 3-hours for Fire zones and 12 hours for all other zone types.

Transmitter Input Types

Each of the transmitters has one or more unique factory-assigned input (loop) ID codes. Each of the inputs
requires a programming zone (e.g., a 5804's four inputs require four button zones). Transmitters can be
entered as one of the following types (see transmitter's instructions for appropriate input type):
Type
Supervised
Unsupervised
(Unsupervised) Button

Transmitter Battery Life

Batteries in the wireless transmitters may last from 4–7 years, depending on the environment, usage,
•
and the specific wireless device being used. Factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures, as well
as large swings in temperature may all reduce the actual battery life in a given installation. The wireless
system can identify a true low battery situation, thus allowing the dealer or user of the system time to
arrange a change of battery and maintain protection for that point within the system.
Button-type transmitters should be periodically tested for battery life. The 5804BD, 5804BDV, and
•
5804E button transmitters have replaceable batteries.
Sends periodic check-in signals, as well as fault, restore, and low battery signals. The transmitter must
remain within the receiver's range.
Sends periodic check-in signals, as well as fault, restore, and low battery signals, but the control does
not supervise the check-in signals. The transmitter may be carried off-premises.
Sends only fault signals. Transmitters do not send low battery signals until they are activated. The
transmitter may be carried off-premises.
