Universal Transceiver
A Universal transceiver can be used to integrate your facility’s existing equipment such as backup generators or
other devices that can be integrated with the software. Universal transceivers can be programmed as either NO
(normally open) or NC (normally closed) devices. They automatically activate when the input from a monitored
device has a contact close or open. When this happens, the Universal transceiver sends event information to the
Central Server. The Universal transceiver is powered by a replaceable 3V coin cell battery.
The Universal has one (1) LED light. The light is visible when enclosure door is open (i.e. during installation),
but not visible during normal operation when the enclosure door is closed. The light flashes briefly once every
check-in (20 minutes by default) and once each time the device alarm is triggered or cleared. Green indicates
communication with the Router is good; red indicates communication failure and device is not able to transmit
to the Router.
Tamper
The Universal transceiver’s tamper functionality operates in several modes depending on the device and
the type of tamper interference. In either case, when initiated, a Tamper alarm event will be listed on the
Event List at the Central Server. The types of tamper events are:
 Case Open Tamper— initiated when the case to the Universal transceiver is opened.
 Externals Enclosure Tamper —initiated when the external closure of the PIR Sensor is opened.
Below is a table showing the type of tamper event associated with a particular device.

Installing the Universal Transceiver
To wire the Universal transceiver connect the two 22-gauge, 2-conductor stranded wire into the
appropriate terminals on the existing device. Refer to the device manufacturer’s instructions or contact
the RF Technologies, Inc. Technical Support Team at (800)-669-9946 or [phone] to identify the
correct terminals.
The Universal transceiver can be mounted with a screw using a mounting hole; it can be applied with the
attached adhesive pad; or it can be mounted with a lanyard or zip tie through the opening at the top of
the transceiver.
