CRN Telemetry Devices, Inc. 1515 Middle Country Road Centereach, New York 11720 USA INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CRN SmartSense7 WIRELESS SUBSCRIBER UNIT Tel: (631) 696-2769 Fax: (631) 698-7943 www.crnwireless.com WARNING: Failure to read and carefully follow these instructions may jeopardize subscriber security!
Changes Or Modifications Not Expressly Approved By The Party Responsible For Compliance Could Void The Users Authority To Operate The Equipment. INSTALLATION GUIDELINES Mounting locations can ONLY be selected based on RF performance, therefore, it is HIGHLY recommended that the installer follow the SELECTING A MOUNTING LOCATION section below BEFORE any wires are run to the alarm control panel. Generally, high locations are best. DO NOT mount radio in basement or below grade as unpredictable performance may result. Whenever possible, keep the transmitter in a climate controlled environment. Attics may reach extremely high temperatures in summer months. Unheated garages may reach extremely cold temperatures in winter months. Avoid locations within 3 feet of large metal objects (air conditioners, metal garage doors, etc.), AC power lines, and fluorescent light fixtures. A fair amount of care may be required to mount the unit so as to achieve an optimal RF path. Unlike smoke detectors, motion detectors, etc., these transmitters draw a substantial amount of current (approximately 1 Amp during transmit) and require a clean 12VDC power source, free from any AC ripple or noise. Therefore, follow the instructions for POWER contained herein EXACTLY! Power the unit from a battery as shown. DO NOT power from the alarm control panel AUX power output or directly from a power supply. DO NOT vary from the Wiring Size Chart. Failure to properly power the unit may cause unpredictable performance over time. SELECTING A MOUNTING LOCATION Install the antenna as shown in Section 1. Temporarily connect power to the transmitter from a fully charged 12V (4AH minimum) battery. DO NOT mount the transmitter at this time. Temporarily position the unit in the desired mounting location. To transmit a manual test code (code 0), press pushbutton S1 (bottom right corner of board). Each time S1 is pressed the LED (D6, just above the pushbutton) will light for approximately 1 second while the unit transmits. Confirm each manual test sent is received by calling the CRN Automated Signal Verification System or the Central Station, and verify each of the signals sent were received. 1 ANTENNA INSTALLATION Gently push Antenna BNC male connector onto Subscriber Unit BNC female connector.

3 WIRE INPUT CHANNELS (For Input 1 Only, Choose either SmartSense for Fire and Burg or Direct Trigger, Inputs 2, 3, 4, 5, & 6, use Direct Trigger) For Inputs 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 VOLTAGE TRIGGER: for ADEMCO and most other Alarm Control Panels w/ voltage trigger outputs DO NOT CUT RESISTOR R2, R3, R4, R5, OR R6 respectively Wire INPUT 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 TO CONTROL PANEL BELL + or OTHER VOLTAGE (+4.5 to 14.5VDC) TRIGGER UNIT WILL SEND CODE 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 respectively GROUND TRIGGER: for DSC, NAPCO and most other Alarm Control Panels with electronic pull-to-ground trigger outputs WITH POWER REMOVED, CUT RESISTOR R2, R3, R4, R5, or R6 respectively CONNECT UT 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 TO CONTROL PANEL BELL - (DSC) or E-LUG (NAPCO) OR OTHER PULL-TO-
INP Input 1 ONLY SMARTSENSE TRIGGER The Optional SmartSense feature allows for simple, one-wire connection for both FIRE and BURGLARY conditions. Since the SmartSense feature increases the channel integration delay from 1 second to 10 seconds, DO NOT use SmartSense feature for Burg Only installations. VOLTAGE TRIGGER:
For ADEMCO, NAPCO, and other Alarm Control Panels with switched BELL POSITIVE terminals:
WITH POWER REMOVED, CUT RESISTOR R7 (SMART) CONNECT INPUT 1 TO CONTROL PANEL BELL + UNIT WILL SEND CODE 7 FOR PULSATING VOLTAGE (Typically FIRE) and CODE 8 FOR STEADY VOLTAGE (Typically BURG) GROUND TRIGGER:
For DSC and other Alarm Control Panels with switched BELL NEGATIVE terminals:
WITH POWER REMOVED, CUT RESISTOR R7 (SMART) AND RESISTOR R1 CONNECT INPUT 1 TO CONTROL PANEL BELL - UNIT WILL SEND CODE 7 FOR PULSATING GROUND (Typically FIRE) and CODE 8 FOR STEADY GROUND (Typically BURG). NOTE: SMARTSENSE FEATURE DOES NOT WORK ON CONTROL PANELS WITH BUILT IN SIREN DRIVER, MUST HAVE VOLTAGE OUTPUT. DIRECT TRIGGER VOLTAGE TRIGGER:
For ADEMCO and most other Alarm Control Panels with voltage trigger outputs: DO NOT CUT RESISTOR R1 CONNECT CHANNEL 1 TO CONTROL PANEL BELL + or OTHER VOLTAGE (+4.5 to 14.5VDC) TRIGGER UNIT WILL SEND CODE 1 GROUND TRIGGER:
For DSC, NAPCO and most other Alarm Control Panels with electronic pull-to-ground trigger outputs WITH POWER REMOVED, CUT RESISTOR R1 CONNECT CHANNEL 1 TO CONTROL PANEL BELL - (DSC) or E-LUG (NAPCO) OR OTHER PULL-TO-GROUND TRIGGER UNIT WILL SEND CODE 1 OR 4 VERIFY INSTALLATION Confirm each input channel is triggered by control panel output by calling the CRN Automated Signal Verification System or the Central Station, and verify which sites are receiving the signals.
