Wireless Sounder Instructions 3
Introduction
RISCO Group's two-way wireless sounders are designed to extend the signaling
capabilities of the Risco Group wireless systems within the protected area. The
wireless sounders offer an easy and flexible solution for quick installations. The
sounders are powered by their own batteries and communicate wirelessly with the
security panel using 868MHz or 433MHz frequency band. Up to 3 wireless sounders
(external or internal) can be assigned to a system.
* Sounder and siren are used interchangeably in this document.
Operational Functions
Alarm / Tamper Indication
Upon an alarm condition, the sounder sound will be activated for a period of time
defined by the system (the Bell Time Out parameter).
The maximum time that the sound will be activated is 5 minutes.
Low Battery Indication
Upon a low battery condition a trouble indication is sent to the panel.
There are 2 types of low battery indications:
Radio low battery
Speaker low battery
Supervision
Each sounder can be defined to be supervised by the panel. The system generates
a local trouble signal identifying the sounder which its signal is not received during
a predefined time, followed by a report to the Central Station (if defined).
Pre Alarm Indication
When an entry time starts, the system transmits a pre-alarm signal to the sounder.
If the system is disarmed before the entry delay time expires a cancellation signal is
sent to the sounder.
If the sounder does not receive a canceling signal within the entry delay time, the
sounder will be activated.
NOTE
:
This feature is programmable. For more information please refer to page 11.
Self Testing
Upon pressing on the reset switch located on the PCB, the sounder performs a
functional self test. The strobe flashes and a squawk will sound.
Remote testing can be performed from the system keypad or using the
Upload/Download software.
Installation LED Indication
The sounder incorporate two LEDs located on the PCB. These LEDs are enabled
when the tamper is open and 10 minutes after the tamper is closed.
Red Only: Indicates transmission time
Yellow Only: Indicates low battery
Red + Yellow (3 seconds): Confirmation of successful learning mode.
4 Wireless Sounder Instructions
Installation
Use the following instructions to mount the external and internal wireless sounders.
Mounting the External Sounder

Programming Instructions
The following section describes programming options added relating to the
programming of the wireless sounder. Up to 3 wireless sounders (external or internal)
can be assigned to the system.
We recommend reading and fully understanding the system Installation and User
manuals, before programming the sounder.
Engineer Programming Menu
To access the sounder menu
1. From the main engineer menu press [9] to access the More "Devices menu".
2. Press [2] for Siren.
3. You are now in the sounder submenus as described below.
[9][2][1] Siren: Allocation
The sounder must identify itself to the system's receiver by writing its ID into the
System.
Step 1: Introducing the Sounder to the System
1. After accessing the siren menu, press [1] for the Allocation menu
2. Select the sounder ID you want to assign.
3. Place the cursor over the Type filed. Use the key to choose one of the
following options and then press [#] :
NONE
ODWS1: Outdoor wireless sounder
INWS1: Indoor wireless sounder
NOTE:
After selecting the NONE option the system will ask you whether to erase the sounder or not.
4. Use the key to choose if the sounder will be audible [Y] or silent [N] and
press [#].
5. Use the key to choose if the squawk sound will be audible [Y] or silent [N]
and press [#].
6. Use the key to choose if the squawk strobe is enabled [Y] or disabled [N]
and press [#].
NOTE:
The definition of the squawk strobe is applicable only for the outdoor (ODWS1) sounder.
8 Wireless Sounder Instructions
Step 2: Setting communication with the system
1. After adding the sounder to the panel, the sounder must identify itself to the
system's receiver by writing its ID into the system's receiver. Select the
appropriate option as follows:
Press [1] to Skip to the next sounder assignment
Press [2] to allocate the sounder into the system. Send a write
signal (within 255 seconds) from the sounder as follows:
a. Press the reset switch on the sounder.
b. After a squawk is sounded and the sounder's
strobe flashes (only in outdoor sounder) you
have 10 seconds to press on the tamper switch
for at least 3 seconds.
If the sounder is successfully recognized, the
system will sound a confirmation beep, the
sounder will initiate a squawk sound and the 2
LEDs on the sounder will flash for 3 seconds.
Press [3] to erase the sounder from the system memory.
Press [4] to select whether the sounder will be supervised or not.
2. Repeat the process for other sounders in the system (up to 3).
[9][2][2] Siren: Parameters
Using this menu you can define parameters that reflect the operation of the sounder.
To set the sounder parameters
1. From the engineer menu, access the siren parameters submenu, Quick Key
[9][2][2].
2. Enter the number of the sounder that you want to program and then press [#].
You can now program the sounder parameters.
NOTE:
For internal sounder (INWS1) only the Volume parameter is available.

receiver and the system. The value displayed indicates the receiving level of the signal
sent from the system to the sounder's receiver.
To perform communication test
1. From the engineer menu access the siren communication test submenu, Quick
Key [9][2][3].
2. The system sends a test signal to the sounders. A number between 00-99
indicates the strength of the communication signal between the system and the
sounder.
NOTE:
For successful communication, the strength of the signal should be higher that the sounder receiver
noise threshold level (see quick key [9][2][4]) .
10 Wireless Sounder Instructions
[9][2][4] Siren Receiver Calibration
This feature establishes the threshold noise level of the wireless sounder receiver for
successful communication with the system.
To calibrate the sounder receiver
1. From the engineer menu access the siren receiver calibration submenu, Quick
Key [9][2][4].
2. Select the sounder for which you want to calibrate its receiver.
3. To perform a new automatic calibration, use the key to select [Y].
After the calibration process is accomplished, the new noise threshold level is
displayed.
4. To confirm the new threshold level, press [#] or change the threshold level
manually and then press [#].

during the supervision time of the system receiver (Quick Key
[1][3][3] ) the system will regard the sounder as Lost.
IMPORTANT:
The supervis
ion time of the system receiver (Quick key [1][3][3]) should be higher than the
accessory supervision time ([1][1][9]) in order to eliminate false lost event.
Wireless Sounder Instructions 11
