IQ8Wireless transponder for wall mounting
FB 798941 / 10.06 39
11 Commissioning
To start the IQ8Wireless transponder you will need the tools 8000 programming software from
version V1.09 or higher and the panel interface (Part No. 789862) as well as a service PC.
Start-up differs depending on whether the transponder is connected as a device on the analog
loop or to a standard detector zone input.
Example:
IQ8Wireless transponder 1 recognises all the wireless bases with adequate field strength
(coloured dark here). The tools 8000 software is used to assign the required (dark coloured)
wireless bases to the transponder 1.

The IQ8Wireless detector bases that are assigned to transponder 1 can no longer be
recognised by transponder 2 when it is started up because they are already assigned to
transponder 1. All IQ8Wireless detector bases recognised by transponder 2 (light coloured)
can be assigned to wireless base 2.
The assignment of the IQ8Wireless detector bases and transponders may be changed to suit
your requirements with the tools 8000 software. When assigning, consider the quality of the
wireless link (field strength) and the distribution of the IQ8Wireless detector bases within the
monitored areas.
If an IQ8Wireless transponder is switched off or looses communication to its
assigned wireless devices during start-up
, it can again be recognised by all other
IQ8Wireless transponders – within a suitable range. During assignment the
wireless devices can be identified by the individual serial numbers. These serial
numbers are displayed in the tools 8000 software for each wireless device that is
recognised. If a wireless device is assigned to several IQ8Wireless
transponders, no guarantee can be given that the system will work properly.
To ease the commissioning procedure some helpful 3-digit trouble codes may be
displayed at the Fire alarm control panel IQ8Control. For additional information
and description of the trouble code refer to the manual of the FACP IQ8Control.
