The 2GIG-RPTR1-345 wireless eSeries encrypted indoor alarm repeater is designed to work with 2GIG security systems providing more flexibility in where wireless sensors can be installed. The 2GIG-RPTR1e-345 repeater can be installed in the optimal location to extend the range of 2GIG GC2 and 2GIG GC3 panels for larger jobs. The repeater is a plug and play device that will immediately start repeating signals when powered on.
The repeater is a peripheral device that communicates with the 2GIG panel using a proprietary 345 MHz transmission protocol. The 2GIGe repeater receives and recognizes messages from eSeries and other 345 MHz wireless devices, such as Honeywell 5800-Series sensors, that are unable to directly communicate with the system, and "repeats" those messages to extend the range of the devices. The repeater will typically be installed at the mid-point between the panel and the wireless devices being repeated. When a transmission from a device is repeated, the repeater adds a bit to the message to indicate to the system that the message is not coming directly from the device. The repeater will not repeat already repeated messages.
The repeater is powered by an AC adapter and is equipped with a rechargeable battery which supports 24 hours of battery back up under conditions of local power failure. When the power source for the repeater changes from AC power to battery backup, or from battery backup to AC power, the repeater will automatically send a message to the system within two (2) minutes. In addition, supervisory messages are sent approximately every 70 minutes that indicate the repeater status.
The repeater is equipped with a status indicator LED visible from the front of the unit, and a learn button is located on the side of the unit.
Product Features:
Compatible with 2GIG's eSeries encrypted sensors
Repeats 2GIG and Honeywell signals on 345MHz frequency
24-hour backup battery included
Repeat indicator in the signal eliminates "repeated signal storm"
Optional zone programming to supervise Tamper, AC Loss, and Low Battery GC2: Requires FW v1.14 or newer. GC3: Requires FWv3.1 or newer.
Mount Repeaters within 100 ft (30 m) of the Control Panel: Although the transmitter may have a range of 350 ft (106.7 m) in open air, the repeater location can have a significant effect on range. In open/unobstructed situations, the transmitter range may be greater. In adverse weather conditions, changing the repeater orientation may lead to improved range.
Mount Repeaters as high as possible: Mounting the repeater high off the ground helps receiver sensitivity.
Do Not Expose Repeaters to Moisture or Extreme Temperatures: It is best to mount repeaters in a dry location where the operating temperature does not exceed 32 to 120°F (0 to 49°C).
Keep Repeaters Away from Metal/Metallic Surfaces: To keep the repeater away from metal or metallic surfaces (for example, foil wallpaper), it is recommended that you use spacers (not included). You should also avoid mounting sensors in areas where there is a large quantity of metal or electrical wiring (for example, near a furnace or in a utility room)
