DESCRIPTION

The Model AEG-WR Supervised Wireless Receiver allows up to 64 unique wireless security
transmitters to report information to an Aegis automation controller. The wireless transmitters
replace wired door and window sensors, as well as wired smoke, motion, and glassbreak
detectors. These transmitters report status information to the AEG-WR Receiver which, in
turn, processes the information and reports it to the controller.

The receiver is compatible with transmitters manufactured for the Aegis prodcuct by Linear
Corporation. It supports Linear's Supervised S1, Megacode, and SX format transmitters.

COMPATIBLE TRANSMITTERS

We recommend the use of the SX format transmitters. These transmitters have an open air
range of over 1000 feet. The SX format features compressed, encrypted data with error
detection and correction for increased range, reliability, and ease of installation. Each of the
SX format transmitters is factory programmed with one of over 16,000,000 I.D. codes.

The following are the most popular SX format transmitters that may be used:

T-90 Door/Window Transmitter - Used in the place of a wired magnetic switch, this
stationary sensor has a built-in magnetic switch with adjustable magnet, may be
connected externally to monitor other types of sensors, and is self-testing. It uses
surface-mount technology and a lithium battery with a life expectancy of over 5 years

TMD-90 Passive Infrared Motion Detector - Uses passive infrared heat detection to
sense motion

TGB-90 Glass Break Detector - Used to detect both audio emissions and shock
vibrations of breaking glass

TSD-90 Smoke Detector - Supervised photoelectric smoke detector

TX-91, TX-92, and TX-94 Hand-Held Transmitters - One, two, and four button
portable sensors

Although HSP recommends the use of SX series transmitters, 303.875 MHz S1 and Megacode
transmitters may also be used with the AEG-WR Wireless Receiver. You can use up to 64
unique transmitters with the AEG-WR Receiver. Each zone reported to the controller can have

3

up to four transmitters assigned to it depending on the number of addresses assigned to the
receiver.

The 64 transmitters are divided into 4 groups of 16, with the transmitters in each group
numbered 1-16. One or more groups respond to each address assigned to the receiver. When
multiple groups respond to the same address, the corresponding transmitters in each group are
combined to determine the status to be reported for a zone.

The table below shows the address that each transmitter group responds to verses the number of
addresses assigned to the receiver.

1.00 2.00 3.00 4.00

1-16 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00
17-32 1.00 2.00 2.00 2.00
33-48 1.00 1.00 3.00 3.00
49-64 1.00 2.00 1.00 4.00

NUMBER OF ADDRESSES ASSIGNED

The receiver can report status to 16 zones on an Aegis controller. Transmitters 1-16 report to
zones 17-32. If a 17th transmitter is used, the status of that transmitter is reported to zone 17;
the status of the 18th transmitter is reported to zone 18, etc.

The receiver can report status to 64 zones on an Aegis controller. When used with Aegis
controller, wireless transmitters report to zones 33-96.

INSTALLATION

Install the receiver in a central area of the premises, as high above ground as practical. The
receiver should be at least 5 feet from the controller or any other electronic device. The open
air range of SX format transmitters is 3500 feet. However, this will be reduced by building
construction as follows:

Wood and drywall 10%
Concrete and brick 35%
Steel, reinforced concrete, metal lath: 90%

When the location of the receiver has been established, remove the cover and position the
receiver so that the antenna connector is at the top right. Mount the receiver, using supplied
wall anchors and screws, through two mounting holes (upper left and bottom right). Allow at
least a 12 inch clearance to mount the antenna.
