Chapter 1: Installation
This section describes how to connect the RTX3. The following diagram displays RTX3 installation.
Figure 2: RTX3 Installation
1. Control panel Digiplex connection.
Notes:
• When using the RTX3 as a stand-alone device: connect an external 12Vdc power supply to the RED and BLK terminals
• Battery backup is recommended
2. Use a relay if the current draw exceeds 150mA on PGM1 or PGM2. Connect the RTX3’s RED connector to the relay’s RED connector, and the RTX3’s PGM connector (PGM1 or PGM2) to the relay’s BLK connector.
3. Connect PGM3 and PGM4 to external power supplies if additional power is required. A PS-817 is recommended. Connect the PGM’s N/O connector to the external power supply’s “+” connection. Connect the power supply’s “-” connector to the device’s “-” connector. Connect the PGM’s COM connector to the device’s “+” connector.
Note: Write down the serial number of all wireless modules used with
the RTX3.

System Reset
System Reset restores the RTX3 factory settings. IMPORTANT: System Reset only functions during the first 30 seconds after
RTX3 power up.
To reset the system:
1. Press and hold the Programming button for 5 seconds.
The
BUS RX LED flashes (see LED Feedback on page 8).
2. Release the button and press it again while the LED flashes to reset the RTX3 default settings.

Chapter 2: Programming
This section describes how to program the RTX3 for Spectra SP series control panels, EVO series control panels and for stand-alone installations.
Programming RTX3 for Spectra SP Series Panels
When connected to a Spectra SP Series control panel, RTX3 settings are programmed through control panel programming sections. For detailed instructions refer to the Spectra SP Series Programming Guide.
Notes:
• Programming for a Spectra SP series system requires K32 or K10V/H keypads v2.0 or higher
• Only one RTX3 module can be connected to a Spectra SP Series panel
Programming for EVO Series Panels
Program RTX3 settings for EVO panels with either a keypad or BabyWare PC software.
Programming RTX3 with a Keypad
When connected to an EVO panel, program RTX3 settings through the keypad by entering Module Programming Mode.
To enter Module Programming mode:
1. Press and hold the
[0] key.
2. Enter the
[INSTALLER CODE].
3. Enter section
[4003].
4. Enter the module
[SERIAL NUMBER].
5. Enter the required
[DATA].
Note: When used without a K641 or K641R keypad, enable EVO option [1]
in section
[3029].
After Programming RTX3 for EVO Control Panels
Program the zones, PGMs, sirens and remote controls into the EVO panel. Refer to EVO section [3034] and RTX3 section [001]* options [2] and [3] for wireless transmitter supervision options. Requirement: Configure all wireless sirens in an EVO system to a single RTX3.
