Supervised Wireless Receiver
and Zone Expander
Installation Instructions
INTRODUCTION
The Model SXR-64A is a 64-channel, 12-zone, supervised wireless receiver/
annunciator designed for use in residential or commercial security systems. Housed
in a rugged metal enclosure, the SXR-64A connects to a hardwired alarm control
panel adding wireless capability to the panel.
The SXR-64A receives signals from a variety of security transmitters then processes,
displays and transfers the signal to the hardwired alarm control panel. Six unique
conditions for each transmitter channel can be shown on the unit’s display. Conditions
such as “Open Portal”, “Transmitter Low Battery”, “Transmitter Tamper” and “First
Alarm In” show the status of each transmitter in the system. Valuable features such
as Alarm Memory and Transmitter Status allow for quick system diagnosis and
troubleshooting.
The receiver’s eight alarm zones and four supervisory zones provide a fl exible
interface to the alarm control panel. Any or all of the zones can be used. All of the
solid state zone outputs can be either normally open or normally closed electrical
confi guration and can switch up to 100 mA @ 24 VDC.
An easy programming interface using four pushbuttons lets the installer quickly setup
the system. The UP, DOWN, ADVANCE and MEMORY buttons are located inside the
receiver case and are used for transmitter and system programming.
An on-board, high-gain, superheterodyne radio receiver gives the SXR-64A excellent
reception. The MODE indicator shows RF activity. The local whip antenna (supplied)
or remote external antenna (Model EXA-1000) connects to the receiver through a
standard type “F” connector.
The SXR-64A decodes Linear’s SX, S1, and MegaCode™ format transmitters. The
SXR-64A can be used as a direct replacement for Linear’s SS-32, SSR-32, & SXR-64
receivers with an installation bonus of being able to use up to 64 transmitters in the
system.
Power for the SXR-64A is provided from the alarm control panel. To control the alarm
memory, reset tamper and status alert conditions, an armed input on the receiver
connects to an armed output from the control panel.

CONDITIONS FOR ALL TRANSMITTERS
ROTATE ON THE DISPLAY
OPEN PORTAL
ALL TRANSMITTERS WILL CAUSE THIS CONDITION WHEN AN ALARM SIGNAL IS
SENT. THE CONDITION WILL REMAIN UNTIL A RESTORE SIGNAL IS SENT, UNLESS
THE TRANSMITTER IS SET AS "AUTO RESTORE". THE CHANNEL'S ZONE OUTPUT
WILL BE FAULTED WHEN THIS CONDITION IS DISPLAYED.
WHEN THE PANEL IS ARMED, THE FIRST ALARM SIGNAL SENT WILL CAUSE THIS
CONDITION. IF THE CHANNEL IS SET AS "DELAYED", THIS CONDITION WILL OCCUR
AFTER ANY DELAYS IF THE PANEL IS NOT DISARMED. DISPLAY WILL CLEAR THE
NEXT TIME THE PANEL IS RE-ARMED.
FIRST ALARM IN
WHEN THE PANEL IS ARMED, ADDITIONAL ALARM SIGNALS SENT WILL CAUSE THIS
CONDITION. IF THE CHANNEL IS SET AS "DELAYED", THIS CONDITION WILL OCCUR
AFTER ANY DELAYS IF THE PANEL IS NOT DISARMED. DISPLAY WILL CLEAR THE
NEXT TIME THE PANEL IS RE-ARMED.
ADDITIONAL ALARMS IN
ANY TRANSMITTER THAT CAN SEND A LOW BATTERY SIGNAL WILL CAUSE THIS
CONDITION WHEN ITS BATTERY IS LOW. DISPLAY WILL REMAIN UNTIL A SIGNAL
FROM THE SAME TRANSMITTER WITH A GOOD BATTERY IS SENT.
TRANSMITTER LOW BATTERY
ANY TRANSMITTER THAT CAN SEND A TAMPER SIGNAL WILL CAUSE THIS
CONDITION WHEN IT IS TAMPERED. DISPLAY WILL CLEAR THE NEXT TIME THE
PANEL IS ARMED.
TRANSMITTER TAMPER
IF THE RECEIVER DOES NOT RECEIVE STATUS SIGNALS FROM A TRANSMITTER
THAT IS SET AS SUPERVISED, THIS CONDITION WILL BE DISPLAYED. THE RECEIVER
CAN BE SET FOR TWO OR EIGHT HOURS OF MISSING STATUS TRANSMISSIONS
BEFORE THE CONDITION OCCURS. DISPLAY WILL CLEAR THE NEXT TIME THE
PANEL IS ARMED.
