Super Switch 2GIG-TAKE-345

Operating Instructions

The 2GIG-TAKE-345 Super Switch is 2GIG’s wireless takeover module. This unit was designed to con-
vert 8 hardwired zones into eight wireless zones, make installation simple, and work with existing 12 ­volt control panels. The module is to be mounted next to the existing control box where the hardwired
zones are connected. All of the zones on the Super Switch act as supervised wireless zones.

NOTE: If the control panel has been removed then a 12-volt power supply with battery backup is required
(not supplied).

Installation & Mounting Guidelines

Screw the mounting bracket to a wall and attach the Super Switch. To release the bracket, pull up on the tab
and slide the bracket down. Mount the bracket with two screws. The Super Switch must be mounted in RF range
of the control panel being installed.

NOTE: Signals will not be received if the Super Switch is not within range of the control panel.

Follow the wiring diagram provided

1. Remove AC power from existing wired panel.

2. Remove leads from battery on existing wired panel.

3. With power removed, wire the zones to the Super Switch. Terminals 3-10 are marked as
Zones 1-8 on the Super Switch (see
example, to wire zone 1 on the Super Switch take the positive or HI side of the zone off the
existing panel and place it in terminal 3/Zone 1 on the Super Switch. Leave the negative
side or the LO side of the zone wired to the existing panel.

4. Repeat this procedure for all zones to be connected to the Super Switch.

Powering the Super Switch and other devices

1. The Super Switch comes with two wires attached Red (+) and Black (-). Connect the red wire to the red
terminal and the black wire to the black terminal on the existing control panel’s battery.

2. Connect the wires from the existing panel for the battery into the spades lugs on top of the wires from
Super Switch now connected to the battery.

3. Wire the existing panels AUX power out to terminal 2 on the Super Switch (marked as 12V). If you are
using the Super Switch with PIRs, glass breaks, or other devices that need power, then they
need to receive power from the AUX power on the existing control panel. NOTE: Remove all

other devices wired to AUX power on the existing control such as keypads or any other devices.

Important

1. All the zones on the Super Switch are “Normally Closed” zones.

2. The maximum loop resistance cannot exceed 3K ohms (If the loop resistance exceeds 3K ohms
and the existing panel used end of line resistance, then the end of line resistor may be re­moved).

3. Different control panels have different terminals for each zone and aux power. Please refer to
wiring diagram that came with the existing panel. For example, the HI side of Zone 1—Zone 8
on a Vista panel is typically terminals 8,11,12,14,15,17,18, and 20. AUX positive is typically
terminal 5 on a Vista panel.

NOTE: The Super Switch cannot be used to monitor any type of fire or CO detection zone.

Monitoring the Battery

The Super Switch will operate on the connected battery if there is an AC failure, unless the battery is not capable
of supplying enough power. The Super Switch will monitor the battery to make sure it is operational. When the
Super Switch detects a battery voltage below normal level for a period of time, the Super Switch will report a low
battery for each zone.

Programming

See control panel instructions for learning in sensors. Make sure the control panel is in learn mode and follow
steps below.

1. The Super Switch has a button attached to the board (see
LED will light up for approximately 8 seconds, indicating that the Super Switch is in learn mode.

2. Once the Super Switch is in learn mode, open and close the zone being learned in.

NOTE: The best way to do this is by pushing the Learn button. After the LED lights up, remove the wire for the zone
being learned in and then place the wire back into the terminal on the Super Switch (When using this method, all
doors and motions connected to this loop must be closed prior to removing and inserting the wire). Repeat for each
zone as necessary. Once all the zones are learned in, the Super Switch will be operational.
