© Inovonics, 2011 - www.inovonics.comOne-Way Binary RF ModuleInstallation and Operation Manual - 06287A1 OverviewEchoStream RF modules are designed to be easily interfaced with your electronic remote application controller (RAC). RF modules allow the assimilation of any user-specific application into an EchoStream system. Once integrated with existing products, RF modules provide you with complete EchoStream functionality.E*1941 one-way binary RF modules are end-devices that use a logic-level connection to interface with your RAC. E*1941 one-way binary RF modules can be used in either one-way or two-way EchoStream systems. Figure 1 One-Way System Components2 One-Way Binary RF Module ComponentsThe E*1941 is a universal one-way binary RF module with two alarm input pins, allowing the use of dual inputs. Input one is the primary alarm, bit 0; input two is the secondary alarm, bit 1.There are two models in the E*1941 product family.• The EN1941, for 900 MHz applications in North America, New Zealand, and Australia,• The EE1941, for 868 MHz applications in Europe Figure 2 EN1941 One-Way Binary RF Module Components Figure 3 EE1941 One-Way Binary RF Module ComponentsFrequency band selection pins (EN1941 only) Place a jumper to select the frequency band for your geographic area.• Place the jumper on the left two pins to select 915-928 MHz for Australia.• Place the jumper on the right two pins to select 921-928 MHz for New Zealand.• Leave the jumper off the pins to select 902-928 MHz for North America.ES selection pins (EE1941 only) To enable compatibility with ES products, place a selection jumper on the ES selection pins; if no ES products are used in your system, remove the selection jumper.N/O selection pins Place a jumper to select normally open inputs; remove the jumper to select normally closed.Note: The E*1941 is shipped with the jumper unattached. With the jumper unattached, the E*1941 defaults to normally closed.Secondary alarm Connects a secondary end-device to provide RF alarm data for any user-specific application.Primary alarm Connects a primary end-device to provide RF alarm data for any user-specific application.Tamper input Connects a tamper input to send a message when user-specific end-device is tampered with.Reset input Connects a reset input to reset the one-way binary RF module after a frequency band selection change or N/O - N/C selection change, and to initiate an RF transmission.Power Connect power cabling to an external power supply of 2.4 to 5.5 volts. Ground Connects to ground.Mounting hole Used to mount the one-way binary RF module to the user-specific product. The mounting hole should only be used with a nylon standoff, never metal.LED contacts Use to control an LED switch. Not designed to drive LED power. See “LED Requirements” on page 12 for information on using LED contacts.Board stabilization holes Used to mount and stabilize the board. The board stabilization holes should only be used with non-metal standoffs.3 One-Way Binary RF Module Dimensions Figure 4 E*1941 One-Way Binary RF Module DimensionsABoard stabilization hole.

HComponents that are sensitive to RF transmission, such as high gain circuits, should be isolated from the antenna to prevent interference.IOne-way binary RF modules should not be mounted on metal surfaces or inside metal enclosures. They should also not be mounted where sheet metal ductwork, wire mesh screens, etc. might block transmissions.JThe RF module should be integrated so the antenna is unobstructed by the end user’s PCB, batteries, or any other conductive material. Figure 5 The RF module should be integrated so the antenna is unobstructed6 One-Way Binary RF Module Requirements6.1 Power RequirementsThe E*1941 has an on-board voltage regulator. Connect power cabling to an external power supply (Vcc) of 2.4 to 5.5 volts. Voltage must be sustained at 2.4 volts or above and supply 100 milliamps during the transmit cycle.6.2 EN1941Assuming check-in messages every 3 minutes and infrequent alarm messages (one per day, on average), the average current draw is 32 uA. Peak current draw while transmitting is less than 100 mA. One alarm/restore cycle per hour results in about 5.3 uA increase in average current.6.3 EE1941Assuming check-in messages every 12 minutes and infrequent alarm messages (one per day, on average), the average current draw is 15 uA. Peak current draw while transmitting is less than 50 mA. One alarm/restore cycle per hour results in about 5.3 uA increase in average current.6.4 Low Battery ConditionThe E*1941 measures battery voltage every three and a half hours, and, when the battery measures 2.4 volts, a serial message is sent indicating a low battery condition.6.5 Temperature range-20°C to +60°C, non-condensing6.6 RF network compatibilityEchoStream Commercial Mesh Network6.7 Input RequirementsCaution: Input levels must not exceed 3.3 V.Open When an active source (open collector or dry contact) is used to drive the alarm or tamper input, the voltage should be between 0.75xVcc and Vcc. A passive input should have an impedance of greater than 5.1k ohm between the input and ground.Closed When an active source is used, the voltage should be less than 0.25xVcc. A passive input should have an impedance of less than 240 ohm.6.8 LED RequirementsThe LED output is an active output from the microprocessor, with a 1k series resistor to limit current draw. Default state is low, and the LED pin is pulled high during transmit.7 Compliance Requirements7.1 FCC Requirements for the EN1941The EN1941 one-way binary RF module has received a Limited Modular Grant, requiring Inovonics to retain control of the final installation to ensure compliance to FCC/IC regulations. The integrator is responsible to test the final installation to verify compliance to FCC/IC regulation for unintentional emissions.Prior to marketing the product, the integrator must complete and submit to Inovonics a compliance review form and documentation, and, if requested, a functional product sample for approval. If this is not possible, the integrator must perform the testing themselves and submit proof to Inovonics of compliance to Part 15 of the FCC Rules and Industry Canada RSS-210. At the end of this guide is an Inovonics compliance review form to be filled out by the integrator.The integrator is also responsible for properly labeling the product containing the one-way binary RF module. Labels must be placed on the outside of the product, and must include a statement indicating that the product contains the module, along with the FCC and IC number.Example 1 “Contains One-Way Binary RF Module FCC ID: HCQ3B6OT9OEM; IC ID: 2309A-ETOEMM”Example 2 “Contains FCC ID: HCQ3B6OT9OEM; IC ID: 2309A-ETOEMM”7.2 Television and Radio InterferenceThis equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.7.3 FCC Part 15 ComplianceThis device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and2. this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.7.4 CE Label Requirements for EE1941Inovonics Wireless has received European Telecommunications Standards Institute approval to market one-way binary RF modules, and they are manufactured to be RoHS compliant.
