1. Insert your thumb or finger under the opening on
the back cover and firmly pull up to remove. This cover is not needed for wall
mount.
2. Press tabs on the bottom of the panel and pull apart to remove the back plate.
Mount to the wall using appropriate hardware
ensuring it is level.

1. Hang the front of the panel with the hanging strap on the back plate as shown above.
2. Using the provided hole in the lower right hand side of the
backplate as a template, drill a 1/4″ hole in the wall and feed the white RF antenna into the wall.
3. Screw required in break-away wall tamper for UL 1610
IMPORTANT: Not properly
routing the RF antenna in the
wall will greatly reduce RF sensor
range.

1
Connect the power supply to the barrel jack or to the (+/
Red) and (-/Black) terminals if using a custom length wire.
1. Latch the bottom of the panel into place, ensuring the
the RF antenna and power wire are routed into the wall
and not pinched.
2. Swing the panel up towards the 4 snap tabs at the top.

Firmly pinch “diagonally and down” from the top front of the bezel at all 4 snap tab locations to ensure proper closure. You will hear a “pop” or “snap” sound when each tab has closed properly and the gap along the top should
be tightly seated.
IMPORTANT: Not properly closing the panel could result in damage to the backplate
or false panel tampers.

1. With the included power supply and cable, plug the barrel connector into the jack next to the terminals as
shown above.
2. Route the cable under the hook next to the battery.
3. Route the cable through the strain relief opening.

Replace the cover by inserting the top first, then
while making sure the cable passes under the opening firmly press down on the bottom until the cover “snaps” into place.

Insert table stand dowels into the 2 upper keyholes.
Slide the stand firmly upwards until you hear a

Sensor Test Shows actual dBm signal strength of each sensor and graphs sensor events against the ambient noise floor of the environment. Also displays the traditional packet count method. This new version of the Sensor Test requires RF PIC Version 10.2.15-G1 or higher.

Refer to page 99 for the sensor packet results table.

The Advanced Sensor Test shows a summary page of each sensor paired to the panel along with the average dBm level , the last event’s dBm level and how many packets were received from the sensor.
Select the graph icon to the right of each sensor to view an individual sensor’s graphed signal strength in real time.

SENSOR TEST

FIND IT

Noise Floor From the Sensor Test page select the “Settings” cog to view the “Real Time Noise Floor”. The noise floor represents the dBm threshold at which the panel can no longer sense signals from sensors.
Lower dBm levels mean there is less noise or interference on the sensor’s specific operating band or frequency.

SYSTEM TESTS

SENSOR TEST
Colored points on the graph represent each state change or supervisory signal transmitted from a sensor to the panel. Points are colored based on frequency.
The YELLOW line represents a dBm level where signal strength is “Poor” and potential RF failures could occur. This line dynamically adjusts to 12 dBm above the ambient RF noise floor in the environment.
The RED line represents a dBm level where signal strength is “Critical” and RF failures are likely. This line dynamically adjusts to 6 dBm above the ambient RF noise floor in the environment.
TROUBLESHOOTING: If a sensor falls below the yellow line, try changing it’s orientation (vertical/horizontal), move the sensor to a different part of the door/window or adjust the panel’s RF pigtail antenna.
Then re-test to see the if the result improved.
