RE524X Sensor Registration

Support
1

I recently purchased the RE524X because I had sensors occasionally going offline in a room far from Qolsys 4 panel. The directions seem to state that I just need to register the repeater with the main panel (as wireless translator/13) and then register those sensors causing issues with the repeater. That seems too easy!

Do I need to delete the sensors from the panel and ONLY have them registered with the repeater (so signal goes from sensor to repeater to panel)? I have it all setup and it’s working, but I have no way of knowing if the sensors are talking to the panel, repeater or both!

Thanks!

No, the sensors must still be learned into the alarm panel otherwise it will not listen for them. If the sensors are registered to the repeater, it will repeat the signal at full power to ensure the panel receives it.

Thank you! All seems to be working as it should.
