AXR-RF RF Receiver (AxLink)

Overview

The AXR-RF Radio Receiver (FG7820-XXX) provides wireless reception of

AMX radio frequency (RF) transmitters. The AXR-RF connects to an Axcess

Central Controller with an AxLink, 4-pin captive-wire connector. When required

for large areas, or multiple-room coverage, multiple receivers can be connected

in parallel on the AxLink bus.

Specifications

The standard frequency for the AXR-RF is 418 MHz, but other frequencies are

available. See the Product Specifications table below:

Installation

Configuring the AXR-RF

Use the eight-position DIP switch on, the rear of the AXR-RF, to set the device

number. A device number is assigned to devices connected to the AxLink bus.

Every device on the bus must have a unique device code. The device number

must match the device assignment in the Axcess program. AMX assigns device

numbers in three groups:

• Axcess Control Cards: 1 - 95

• Axcess Bus Boxes: 96 - 127

• Axcess Panels/Receivers: 128 - 255

Setting the DIP Switch

Locate the device DIP switch on the rear panel of the AXR-RF and set it to the

desired binary device number. The device number is set by the total value of DIP

switch positions that are ON (down).

Note: If you change the device number, remove and reconnect the AxLink

connector. This enters the new device number into memory.

Although the AXR-RF is a bus device, it should be numbered in the 128-255

range, because it is a receiver.

Setting the RF Validation Level

An RF transmitter must send repetitions of data for the receiver to accept it as

valid data. In some installations, interference and physical structures may

interfere with the receiver's ability to detect the transmitted signal. The signal

may become distorted. The receiver can be set to use either two or three

repetitions of sequential signals to validate and accept the signal data. To set the

receiver's RF level.

1. Locate jumper pins P3 (FIG. 2) on the circuit board.

2. Position the P3 RF validation jumper to select the number of valid RF data

repetitions to be accepted:

Wiring Guidelines

The AXR-RF requires regulated ±12 VDC power to operate properly. The

Central Controller supplies power via the AxLink cable.

The maximum wiring distance between the Central Controller and AXR-RF is

determined by power consumption, supplied voltage, and the wire gauge used

for the cable.

The table below lists wire sizes and maximum lengths allowable between the

AXR-RF and Central Controller.

The maximum wiring lengths for using AxLink power are based on a minimum of

±13.5 VDC (no load voltage), available at the Central Controller's power supply.

If you install the AXR-RF farther away from the Central Controller than

recommended in the Wiring Specifications table, an auxiliary ±12 VDC power

supply is required for operation.

Front Panel Components

• Radio data LED: Red LED lights to indicate the AXR-RF has received an RF

signal from an AMX transmitter.

• AXlink LED: Green LED that lights to indicate AXlink power/data status

as follows:

• 1 blink/second indicates power is active and AXlink

communication is working.

• 2 blinks/second indicates the devices specified in the

main program do not match the devices found.

• 3 blinks/second indicates there is an AXlink

communication error

• Full on indicates there is either no AXlink control/activity

(but the power is On) or the Axcess program is not

loaded.

Rear Panel Components

• AXlink connector: 4-wire captive-wire AXlink connector for the

Central Controller provides data and nominal ±12 VDC

power.

• Device DIP Switch: 8-position DIP switch sets the device number for the AXR-

RF.

• RF antenna Receiving antenna screws into the antenna connector.

If it is necessary to place the antenna in a remote position,

use up to 6 ft. (2 m.) of RG-174 coax cable as an exten-

sion. Extend the antenna vertically during use.

• Antenna connector Antenna coaxial connector

Wiring the AXR-RF

The AXR-RF uses a rear 4-pin AxLink connector for power and data. Power can

be supplied by Central Controller's AxLink cable, or with an optional auxiliary

±12 VDC power supply.

Using the AxLink Connector For Data and Power

Connect the Central Controller's AxLink connector to the AxLink connector

(male) on the rear panel of the AXR-RF for data and ±12 VDC power.

Using the AxLink Connector With an External Power

Supply

Use an auxiliary ±12 VDC power supply when the distance between the Central

Controller and AXR-RF exceeds the limits described in the Wiring Specifications

table.

To use an external power supply, connect the Central Controller's AxLink

connector to the AxLink connector on the rear of the AXR-RF, as shown in

FIG. 3.

Note: Do not connect the wire from the PWR (+) terminal on the Central

Controller to the PWR (+) terminal on the AXR-RF when you connect an

external power supply.

Do not connect power to the AXR-RF until the wiring is complete.

Connect only the GND (-) wire on the AxLink connector when using an auxiliary

±12 VDC power supply. Do not connect the PWR (+) wire to the AxLink

connector's PWR (+) terminal on the Central Controller side of the connector.

Installing the AXR-RF

1. Set the device DIP switch to assign an AxLink device code to the unit.

2. Install the wiring for the AxLink bus.

3. Position the AXR-RF in the location where it will be used.

• Place the receiver close to, or in the middle of, the area to be covered.

• It is recommended that you mount the unit where the antenna is away from

metal obstructions.

4. Extend the antenna vertically for best reception.

If it is necessary to place the antenna in a remote position, use up to 6 ft.

(2 m) of RG-174 coax cable.

5. Connect the AXR-RF to the Central Controller with the AxLink cable.

Note: To avoid potential problems with Axcess processing, do not install two or

more AXR-RF devices, using the same RF frequency, in one system. The AXR-

RF is available in frequencies other than 418 MHz (on request).

6. Locate the green AxLink LED on the front panel and verify that it flashes

once per second. If so, the AXR-RF is communicating properly with the

Central Controller system.

If the LED is on and not flashing, disconnect the AxLink connector and

recheck all AxLink wiring connections. Reconnect the AxLink connector to

the AXR-RF and verify the LED is flashing once per second.
