EE4200 EchoStream ® Serial Receiver
Installation Instructions - 05161D
1 Overview
The serial receiver is a gateway that uses reliable frequency-hopping, spread-
spectrum technology to decode radio frequency (RF) transmissions from end devices
and high-power repeaters, then outputs the decoded data to the application controller
in a common serial data format.

3 Connect the Serial Cable
Caution: Long cable runs should not be adjacent to high current power feeds. Keep
cable lengths as short as possible to minimize noise pickup. Measure voltage at the
serial receiver on long cable runs.
1. Use a small screwdriver to press the housing release tab (Fig. 1A); separate the
housing.
2. Connect a serial cable to either the serial data port (Fig. 1B) or the serial data
terminal (Fig. 1C). Cabling should meet the following specifications:
Cable requirements 4-conductor 20AWG (or larger) stranded-tinned copper with
PVC insulation rated to 300 volts at 26°C (80°F). (Belden #8205, for example.)
Maximum cable length 30.5 meters (100 feet).
3.
Route the cabling through either the bottom cabling knockout (Fig. 1D) or the side
cabling knockout (Fig. 1E).
4 Mount the Serial Receiver
Caution: Mount the serial receiver in a location removed from metal. Metal objects
(duct work, wire mesh screens, boxes) will reduce RF range.
1. Use the provided anchors and screws to mount the serial receiver in a location
accessible for future maintenance.
2. Close the serial receiver housing.
5 Enable EchoStream Select
To meet ETSI requirements, Inovonics has developed a new line of EE 868MHz-only
products. These new 868MHz-only products are compatible with older systems that
include EchoStream select products. If you are using any ES products in your current
system, you will need to enable EchoStream select compatibility on this new 868MHz-
only product.
To enable/disable EchoStream select compatibility:
1.
To enable compatibility with ES products, place a selection jumper on the enable
EchoStream selection pins (Fig. 1).
2. If no ES products are used in your system, remove the selection jumper from the
EchoStream selection pins (Fig. 1).
6 Grade 2 Requirements
To meet European Grade 2 requirements, the following procedures must be
performed:
6.1 Secure the Housing
There are two screw tabs on the bottom of the housing and one screw tab on the top;
all three must be used to secure the housing.
To secure the housing:
1.
Open the housing
2. Drill out the three screw holes on the housing base: two on the bottom of the
housing, one on the top.
3. Use the three 6 x 1/4 screws included in your accessory pack to secure the
housing.
6.2 Cover the Indicator Lights
The indicator lights must be disabled, so that operation cannot be determined
externally.
To cover the indicator lights:
1.
Open the housing.
2. Apply black electrical tape over the light-holes on the inside of the housing.
3. Close the housing.
7 Serial Receiver Operation
Caution: The EchoStream system should be tested regularly to ensure operation. To
test, place the system in test mode, activate an end device, and ensure an appropriate
response.
The following LEDs are used to monitor serial receiver operation:
Transmit LED Lit when the serial receiver is transmitting data to the application
controller (Fig. 1F).
Receive LED Lit when the serial receiver is receiving data from the application
controller (Fig. 1G).
Decode LED Lit when the serial receiver is decoding an RF transmission from
another Inovonics Wireless device (Fig. 1H).
