Product Summary
The SX-V to Learn Mode Translator receives RF signals
from SX-V sensors and converts them to Learn Mode
signals that can be processed by any ITI Learn Mode panel.
This allows current owners of SX-V, CareTaker®, and RF
Commander® systems to replace their existing control
panel and update it to current Learn Mode technology, with-
out replacing the SX-V sensors in the system. Learn Mode
sensors can then be added to the system if the customer
wants to expand their system.
Tools and Equipment Needed
❑2-conductor, 22-gauge or larger stranded wire
❑Mounting Hardware (included)
❑Phillips Screwdriver
❑Small Slotted Screwdriver
Installation
Install the translator using the following guidelines.
Installation Guidelines
❑The translator requires a 12 VDC power source, either
from the control panel or a separate power supply with
backup battery.
❑Locate the translator 10 to 20 feet away from the con-
trol panel.
❑Whenever possible, centrally locate the translator with
regard to sensor and control panel locations.
❑Mount the translator from 6 to 8 feet above the floor for
optimum wireless range.
❑Avoid mounting the translator in utility or electrical
rooms where there is excessive metal and/or electrical
lines that can interfere with transmitting and receiving
RF signals.
Mounting the Translator
Before handling electronic circuit boards, discharge
yourself of static electricity by touching a grounded,
metal object, or wear a grounding strap during the
installation.
1. Remove the translator cover and set it aside.
2. Place the translator on the wall at the desired location
and mark the three mounting hole locations (see Figure
1).
Figure 1. Mounting Hole Locations
3. Install anchors where studs are not present.
4. Place the translator on the wall at the marked locations
and secure it using the included screws.
Wiring the Translator
1. Run a 2-conductor, 22-gauge or larger stranded wire
cable from the control panel or power supply to the
translator.
2. At the translator, connect the red wire to the +12V ter-
minal and the black wire to the GND terminal (see Fig-
ure 2).
Figure 2. Translator Power Wiring Connections
3. Make sure the power source (control panel or separate
power supply) is powered down.
4. Connect the red and black wires to the +12 and GND
(-) terminals of the power source.
Note
Do not power up the translator at this time. You must first
set the House Code DIP switches before applying power.
Setting the Translator House Code
The 8-position DIP switch is used to set the House Code,
and must be set to match the House Code programmed in all
existing SX-V sensors and touchpads in the system.
The DIP switch uses binary numbering to determine the
House Code number (see Figure 3).
Figure 3. Binary Values of Switches
For example, to set the translator House Code to 55 set
switches 3, 4, 6 ,7, and 8 ON (32 + 16 + 4 + 2 + 1 = 55).
Power Up
Power up the translator by powering up the power source
(control panel or separate power supply).
Programming
Programming involves adding (learning) the translator into
the panel (Learn Mode control panel) and then adding the
SX-V sensors to the panel.

Adding the Translator to the Panel
The following describes the basic steps for adding (learn-
ing) the translator into the panel. For complete program-
ming instructions, refer to the specific control panel
installation instructions.
1. Set the control panel to program mode.
2. Select the desired sensor number and sensor group
when prompted by the panel.
Note
The translator must be learned as a door/window sensor
since it has a tamper switch and is supervised.
3. When prompted by the panel to trip the sensor, press
and hold the translator tamper switch for 2 -3 seconds,
then release it. The panel should respond by announc-
ing or displaying an ‘okay’ message.
4. Exit from program mode.
Adding SX-V Sensors to the Panel
The following describes the basic steps for adding (learn-
ing) sensors into the panel. For complete programming
instructions, refer to the specific control panel installation
instructions.
1. Set the control panel to program mode.
2. Select the desired sensor number and sensor group
when prompted by the panel.
3. When prompted by the panel to trip the sensor, press
and release the sensor tamper switch, test button, or put
the sensor in alarm (whichever is appropriate for the
sensor). The panel should respond by announcing or
displaying an ‘okay’ message.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for all sensors/touchpads.
5. Exit from program mode.
Testing
Test the operation of all sensors and touchpads, according to
the test procedures in the specific control panel installation
instructions.
