3 Select the Frequency Band

EchoStream products use a range of radio frequencies, and must be
configured for your geographic area. To configure the receiver:
1. Use a small screwdriver to press the housing release tabs on the top or

bottom of the receiver; separate the housing.

2. Place a selection jumper on the appropriate frequency band selection

pins.

• Leave the jumper off the pins to set the frequency range to 902-928

MHz for North America.

• Place the jumper on the top two pins, marked NZ, to set the frequency

range to 921-928 MHz for New Zealand

• Place the jumper on the bottom two pins, marked AUS, to set the

frequency range to 915-928 MHz for Australia.

Note: North American is also selected when the jumper is only attached to
one pin. This can prevent the jumper from being lost when selecting North
America.

Note: Only devices set for use in North America are configured for UL
installations.

3. Cycle power to reset.

4 Connect Input/Output Cabling

1. Connect cabling to the receiver power loss output. Must be configured

for UL installations.

• The receiver power loss output is a normally closed (N/C) output that

opens when the receiver loses power.

2. Connect cabling to the tamper output. Must be configured for UL

installations.

• The tamper output is a normally open (N/O) output that reports

receiver case tamper to an external device.

3. Connect cabling to the jam output. Must be configured for UL

installations.

• The jam output is a normally closed (N/C) output that opens when

noise thresholds on all receive channels remain above a
predetermined value for 10 seconds. The jam output is set to the
follower output type.

4. Connect a momentary switch to the reset input and ground. Must be

configured for UL installations.

• The reset input circuit permits installation of a remote momentary

normally open (N/O) switch to clear faults, unlatch outputs, and reset
the receiver to a normal state.

5. Connect cabling to the output terminals. Must be configured for UL

installations.

• The EN4216MR provides six Form-C relays.

6. Close receiver housing.

5 Mount the Receiver

Caution: Mount the receiver in a location removed from metal. Metal
objects (duct work, wire mesh screens, boxes) will reduce RF range.

Note: For UL listed systems containing a UL hold-up switch, the
EN4216MR must be located within three feet of a system keypad in a
location out of sight from the protected premise.

Note: For UL installations, the EN4216MR must be in the same room as
the control panel.

1. Use the provided anchors and screws to mount the receiver in a

location accessible for future maintenance.

2. Perform a walk test, activating each transmitter assigned to the receiver

and ensuring a good signal.

6 Factory Configuration Defaults

The EN4216MR arrives with the tamper, low battery, and inactive trouble conditions
pre-programmed.

through each point. If a point has more than one alarm, the display scrolls
through each alarm. Fault conditions are indicated by F

already displayed; point numbers are not

displayed. If no point is in alarm and there are no fault conditions, R
