Signal Extender
Model SE430
Installation Instructions
June 2005
PRELIMINARY
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Signal Extender is an InGrid Grid Controller that provides a communications link between an InGrid system
and an alarm company central monitoring station. The Signal Extender receives radio signals from other Grid
Controllers and from wireless Sensors, then uses the phone line to report security system events to the central
monitoring station. One or more Signal Extender can be registered in a single InGrid system.
Figure 1 Signal Extender
The Signal Extender provides added security by separating the telephone interface from other Grid Controllers such
as Keypads or Handsets. If a Keypad or Handset is damaged during a break-in or fire, the Signal Extender can still
report to the central monitoring station. The Signal Extender is a supervised device that is regular communications
with other Grid Controllers.
INSTALLATION
¾ Installation Guidelines
•
•
•
•
•
The Signal Extender is designed to be mounted to an outlet that is preferably near a point where the telephone
line enters the house. The Signal Extender will typically communicate at a range of up to 500 feet from other
Grid Controllers.
Do NOT use an outlet that is controlled by a switch.
The chosen outlet should not have a metal outlet cover. This may reduce the communications range of the
Signal Extender. If necessary, replace any metal outlet cover with another outlet cover made of a wood, plastic,
glass, or other non-metallic material.
Always mount the Signal Extender in the upright vertical position with the telephone connector facing down.
The Signal Extender can be connected to a standard analog (loop-start) phone line, with or without digital
subscriber line (DSL) service.
Note: The Signal Extender cannot be used on digital or PBX phone lines, which are designed only for digital type
devices that operate anywhere from 5 volts DC and up. The Signal Extender uses an analog modem and does not
have a digital converter, adapter, or interface to operate with such systems.
Signal Extender
•
When connecting the Signal Extender to a standard analog phone line, it is recommended that you install an RJ31X jack ahead of all phones and other devices on the line for full line seizure. This allows the Signal Extender
to take control of the phone line when an alarm occurs, even if the phone is in use or off-hook. It also provides
customers with a quick disconnect in case the Signal Extender malfunctions, allowing them to use their phone.
•
For UL Listed installations, mount the RJ-31X jack within 5 feet of the Signal Extender.
¾ Install The Battery
Note: To avoid risk of shock or fire, install only IG180 battery
Install the IG180 rechargeable battery pack into the Signal Extender and allow to charge for at least 15-20 hours
before using with AC power.
1) Press down on the battery compartment cover (use the finger indention for a better grip) and slide the cover
downward to remove.
2) Turn the battery pack so that the connector with the red and black wires is near the jack inside the battery
compartment. Match the connector's polarity to the polarity of the jack in the battery compartment (the
connector notches fit into the grooves of the jack only one way). Push the battery pack connector into the jack
until it clicks into place.
3) Make sure you have a good connection by gently pulling on the battery wires. If the connection is secure, the
battery connector will remain in place.
4) Place the battery case cover back on the handset and slide it upwards until it clicks into place.
¾ Mounting
Note: You must be free of static electricity before handling the Signal Extender. Touch a bare metal surface or wear
a grounding strap to discharge yourself.
1) Mount the Signal Extender on an outlet only after the battery has been installed in the Signal Extender and the
battery cover is closed.
2) Find the circuit breaker or fuse controlling the outlet to which the Signal Extender will be mounted and
disconnect power to the outlet by turning the circuit breaker off or removing the fuse.
3) Remove the center screw attaching the outlet cover to the outlet. Do not remove the outlet cover.
4) Plug the Signal Extender into the lower socket of the outlet as shown in Figure x with the Signal Extender
telephone connector facing downward.
5) The Signal Extender contains a sliding tab that protrudes above the Signal Extender. If necessary, slide the tab
up or down until the hole in the tab is aligned with the center screw hole of the outlet cover.
6) Insert the outlet screw through both the tab and the center screw hole of the outlet cover as shown in Figure X,
and tighten as necessary. The tab and the cover should be snug against the outlet, but not so tight that it causes
flexing or stress on either the tab or the outlet cover.
7) Reconnect power to the outlet by turning the circuit breaker on or replacing the fuse.

¾ Programming
The Signal Extender must be registered into an InGrid Home Protection System in order to receive programming
information from the other Grid Controllers in the system, the wireless Sensors that are being monitored, and the
phone number and account number information required by the alarm company central monitoring station.
1) A compatible InGrid Keypad, Handset, Console, or Programmer must be used to place the InGrid system into
registration mode according to the installation manual for one of those devices.
2) An Signal Extender which has not yet been registered into an InGrid system will periodically blink and beep.
3) The button on the Signal Extender must be pressed while the InGrid system is in registration mode.
4) The Keypad, Handset, Console, or Programmer which is being used for registration mode will shown the
identity of the Signal Extender, and ask for confirmation.
5) Confirm the identity of the Signal Extender according to the installation manual; the Signal Extender will then
automatically complete registration into the InGrid system and programming/configuration data will be
downloaded into the Signal Extender.
¾ Wiring a Phone Line to the Signal Extender
Connect the Signal Extender ahead (or in front) of all other phones, answering machines, computers, or any other
devices on the phone line. This allows the Signal Extender to take over (seize) the phone line, even if another device
on the line is in use.
An RJ-31X jack should be installed when wiring for full line seizure. This lets the user quickly and easily disconnect
the Signal Extender from the phone line in case the Signal Extender disables the phone line due to a malfunction.
Note: For UL Listed systems, the RJ-31X jack must be mounted within 5 feet of the Signal Extender.
1) Run a 4-conductor cable from the TELCO block to the RJ-31X (A in Figure 4).
2) Connect the 4-conductor cable wires to the RJ-31X (B in Figure 4).
3) Disconnect the Green and Red premises phone jack wires from the TELCO block and splice them to the 4conductor cable Black and White (or Yellow) wires (C in Figure 4). Use weatherproof wire connectors for these
splices.
4) Connect the 4-conductor cable Green and Red wires to the TELCO block TIP and Red to RING posts (D in
Figure 4).
5) Insert the 8-conductor phone cord plug into the RJ-31X jack (E in Figure 4).

¾ Phone Test
After connecting the phone line to the Signal Extender, conduct a phone test to verify reports are made to the central
monitoring station. The following steps describe the basic steps for conducting a phone test. Refer to the specific
panel installation instructions for complete details.
Note: You must conduct a phone test whenever the Signal Extender battery is replaced.
1) Call the central monitoring station to inform them you are testing the system.
2) Make sure the InGrid system has the correct account number and central station receiver phone number
programmed.
3) Enter the appropriate phone test command on the Keypad, Handset, Console, or Programmer used in the system.
4) Contact the central monitoring station when you are finished testing.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Note: Disconnect the phone line from the Signal Extender before servicing.
No Dial Tone
If there is no dial tone at on-site phones after wiring the RJ-31X jack, use the following to find the cause.
•
•
•
•
Wait 2 minutes and try again. The Signal Extender may be busy trying to report to the central station.
Check the DB-8 cord connections at the module and RJ-31X jack. Replace the cord if necessary.
Disconnect the DB-8 cord from the RJ-31X jack. If the phone still doesn’t work, the problem is in the RJ-31X
jack wiring. Check the RJ-31X jack wiring and TELCO block wiring. Replace the RJ-31X jack if necessary.
Perform a phone test after troubleshooting the phone line.
Constant Dial Tone
•
If a constant dial tone prevents you from using the phone, there may be one or more polarity sensitive phones
on the premises. Reverse the phone wires connected to the brown and gray wire terminals on the RJ-31X jack.
Trouble Condition
•
The Signal Extender battery may be low. Check the battery, replace if necessary and conduct a phone test.
