The 1100T translator provides a Survey LED capability to allow one person to confirm communication with the 
panel while the cover is removed. 
1.  With the cover removed, hold the translator in the exact desired location.
2.  Press the tamper switch to send data to the panel and determine if communication is confirmed or 
faulty. 
 Confirmed: If communication is confirmed, for each press or release of the tamper switch, the LED 
blinks immediately on and immediately o. Repeat this test 5 times to confirm ten separate 
consecutive LED blinks. Any indication otherwise means proper communication has not been 
established.
 Faulty: If communication is faulty, the LED remains on for about 8 seconds or flashes multiple times 
in quick succession. Relocate the translator or receiver until the LED confirms clear communication.

MOUNT THE TRANSLATOR
The translator must be mounted using the provided #6 
screws in the four mounting holes. Mount the translator 
in a secure, dry place away from metal objects to 
protect the panel from damage due to tampering or the 
elements. Mount the translator a minimum of 4 feet from 
any wireless panels or repeaters. It is not necessary to 
remove the PCB when installing the enclosure.

Wire the Power Supply
The 1100T can be powered from a 12 VDC external 
power supply. In addition to powering the 1100T, the 
power supply also charges the back-up battery. If 
the DC power source is removed, the power failure is 
indicated as an open condition on the 1100T zone.
The 372-500-W must be located within 100 feet of 
the panel using 22 AWG wire. Use the following steps 
to connect the model 372-500-W plug-in DC power 
supply to the 1100T:
1.  Connect the positive wire to the positive 
terminal on the 1100T.
2.  Connect the negative wire to the negative terminal on the 1100T.
3.  Plug the power supply into a wall outlet not controlled by a switch.
