¾ Programming
The Signal Extender must be registered into an InGrid Home Protection System in order to receive programming
information from the other Grid Controllers in the system, the wireless Sensors that are being monitored, and the
phone number and account number information required by the alarm company central monitoring station.
1) A compatible InGrid Keypad, Handset, Console, or Programmer must be used to place the InGrid system into
registration mode according to the installation manual for one of those devices.
2) An Signal Extender which has not yet been registered into an InGrid system will periodically blink and beep.
3) The button on the Signal Extender must be pressed while the InGrid system is in registration mode.
4) The Keypad, Handset, Console, or Programmer which is being used for registration mode will shown the
identity of the Signal Extender, and ask for confirmation.
5) Confirm the identity of the Signal Extender according to the installation manual; the Signal Extender will then
automatically complete registration into the InGrid system and programming/configuration data will be
downloaded into the Signal Extender.
¾ Wiring a Phone Line to the Signal Extender
Connect the Signal Extender ahead (or in front) of all other phones, answering machines, computers, or any other
devices on the phone line. This allows the Signal Extender to take over (seize) the phone line, even if another device
on the line is in use.
An RJ-31X jack should be installed when wiring for full line seizure. This lets the user quickly and easily disconnect
the Signal Extender from the phone line in case the Signal Extender disables the phone line due to a malfunction.
Note: For UL Listed systems, the RJ-31X jack must be mounted within 5 feet of the Signal Extender.
1) Run a 4-conductor cable from the TELCO block to the RJ-31X (A in Figure 4).
2) Connect the 4-conductor cable wires to the RJ-31X (B in Figure 4).
3) Disconnect the Green and Red premises phone jack wires from the TELCO block and splice them to the 4-
conductor cable Black and White (or Yellow) wires (C in Figure 4). Use weatherproof wire connectors for these
splices.
4) Connect the 4-conductor cable Green and Red wires to the TELCO block TIP and Red to RING posts (D in
Figure 4).
5) Insert the 8-conductor phone cord plug into the RJ-31X jack (E in Figure 4).
