Paradox Security Systems Wireless expansion module for Alarm system MGRTX3 EI03

User Manual

The MG-RTX3 is a 2-Way Wireless Expansion Module for use with any Digiplex EVO, Spectra SP, and Esprit series control panel. It is also compatible with the DGP-NE96 and DGP-848 control panels.What’s New with Version 1.2• The MG-RTX3's built-in LEDs now display the status of the Spectra SP Series as shown in F on Table 6.• The MG-RTX3 with Digiplex EVO now supports MG-REM2 V2.01 remotes programmed directly in the panel. These remotes can also support the new visual and auditory feedback. When programming with Digiplex EVO, use section [002] to switch between V2.00 mode or V2.01 mode for all MG-REM2.Before Programming1. Connect the MG-RTX3 according to the installation guide.2. Write down the serial number of all wireless modules to be used with the MG-RTX3. If this installation replaces another MG-RTX3, make sure the programming can be transfered.3. Make sure every wireless module works properly and that you have the latest version of the firmware for the MG-RTX3 and panels.System ResetPress and hold the Programming button for 5 seconds, the BUS RX LED will flash. Release the button and press it again while the LED flashes to reset the module to its default values. The system reset feature only functions during the first 30 seconds after the MG-RTX3 is powered up.Compatibility ChartEVO Spectra SP EspritZones 32 32 -Remotes 32/96/999 32 32Wireless PGMs 8 16 -Wireless Keypads(MG32LRF only) -8-2-Way Remote 33 -Wireless Repeater - 2 -paradox.comPrinted in Canada 10/2007MG-RTX3 V1.2 InstructionsSpectra SP Series ProgrammingWhen connected to a Spectra SP series panel, the MG-RTX3 settings are programmed into the panel.
