RE108 Hardwire to Wireless Takeover Translator, GE-Compatible
Features
• Converts hardwire zones into GE-compatible wireless signals.
• 8 Hardwire loops with end-of-line resistor detection.
• Unique wireless ID (or loop) for each zone, plus 1 for main device.
• Transmit diversity for long reliable range.
• PIR powering (via external supply).
• Back-up battery operation.
• Complete supervision of tampers, external power supply fault and low
battery.
Key Instructions
• Use with normally closed contacts in-line with 4.7 K-ohms end-of-line
resistors.
• 4-wire PIRs only.
• External supply: 7-14V AC or DC at least 50 mA.
• PIR usage: Adds requirements to external supply – see Specifications.
• 2 AAA Alkaline batteries are for backup in case of external supply
failure. Backup batteries cannot drive the PIR.
• Enrolling:
Loops enrolled by tampering (shorting).
Main device enrolled by tamper switch on the board.
Operation
• 8 Hardwire Zones wireless transmissions (8 unique IDs):
Alarm, when Device sees open circuit.
Tamper, when device sees short circuit.
Supervisories, every hour for each zone.
• Translator Main Zone wireless transmission (9
th
unique ID):
Tamper, when cover opened.
Low battery, when either low AAA batteries, OR loss of AC.
Supervisory every hour.
• LED Operation
Green LED: On if AC power present.
Red LED: On if device tamper or device low battery

Specifications
GE Device Type: 10 (all 8 zone ID’s and device ID)
Zone sensing duration: State sensed if held more than 600ms.
End-of-line Resistors: 4.7k-ohm, 5%.
Max wire run: 1000 feet
Backup batteries: Two AAA Alkaline.
External supply: 7-14V AC or DC, at least 50mA.
Current draw with supply: 4mA, normal operation.
PIR usage: Supply must be DC only. PIR may need tighter
voltage tolerance. Add PIR and device
current requirements together to get total
current need.
AC Fail Conditions: AC gone for 15 minutes. Restores on AC
restore.
Device Low Battery Conditions: Low battery for 1 minute. Restores on
device tamper, AC restore.
Back-up Battery Life on AC Fail: 2 years, all zones terminated in 4.7K;
longer if unused/open.
Housing dimensions: 4x6x1 inches
Specifications subject to change without notice.
