• For UL installations, wire lengths must not exceed 300 feet.

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 Input/Output Cabling

Connect the inputs and outputs per your specific application:
1. Connect cabling to the power loss output. Must be configured for UL

installations.

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

when the receiver loses power. The receiver operation output is set to
the follower output type.

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

installations.

• The optional tamper output is a relay output that reports receiver case

tamper to an external device.

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

installations.

• The optional jam output is a relay output that is active when noise

thresholds on all transmission channels remain above a
predetermined value for 10 seconds.

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

configured for UL installations.

• The optional 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.

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 EN4232MR 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 EN4232MR 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, making sure the housing is
flush with the wall and the back tamper switch is actuated.

2. After all transmitters have been registered, perform a walk test,

activating each transmitter assigned to the receiver and ensuring a
good signal.

6 Factory Configuration Defaults

The EN4232MR arrives with the outputs pre-programmed. If the default
programming is sufficient for your site, you can advance directly to section
9.6, “Register Transmitter” on page 4.
