RE224GH GE-to-Honeywell Translator.doc Page 1 of 4 1/8/2010 www.ResolutionProducts.com Wireless Security Solutions RE224GH GE-to-Honeywell Wireless Translator Features • Listens to GE protocol wireless devices: DWS, PIR, Fob, Panic. • Transmits Honeywell protocol wireless. • No sensor enrollment required. • All alarm, supervisory and trouble signals are passed through. • Main device has its own unique ID for supervisories, complete reporting of main device tamper, external power supply fault and low battery. • Dual antennas for both Receive and Transmit diversity for reliable range. • Back-up battery protects during loss of external power. Key Instructions • External supply: 9-18V AC or DC, recommend 30+ mA. • 3 AAA Alkaline batteries are for backup in case of external supply failure. • Enrolling:  Main device may be learned into the panel by tripping the tamper. Main device does not need to be enrolled in the panel for the repeating function to work.  GE sensors may be enrolled into Honeywell system using the tripping enrollment mode. They are not enrolled in the Translator. Operation • Translator hears existing GE protocol sensors and repeats information in Honeywell protocol to control panel. Generally, sensors send 8 identical “packets” of information. The Translator ensures that a complete set of 8 packets are repeated to the control panel. • Translator Main Zone wireless transmission ( unique ID): Tamper, when cover opened OR loss of AC. Also sends restore. Low battery, when low or removed batteries. Also sends restore. Supervisory sent every hour. We may want to have known IDs that they can plug into the panel.

It will have no problem reaching the control panel.New Honeywell System New Honeywell Wireless Sensors Existing GE Wireless Sensors
