2.0 wLSN General Installation

2.1 Installation Considerations
• wLSN devices are intended only for indoor, dry applications.
• Mount wLSN devices on flat, rigid surfaces. Some devices can
be optionally corner mounted as indicated in the installation
instructions.
• Avoid mounting wLSN devices in areas with large metallic
objects, electrical panels (for example: control panel or fuse
box) or electric motors. They might reduce the radio-frequency
(RF) range of a wLSN device.
• Avoid installing the devices where excessive humidity or
moisture, or temperatures outside of the acceptable operating
range exist.
• Wire all devices according to their specifications.
• wLSN devices use batteries of varying types. When installing
batteries, observe safety and polarity recommendations as
indicated in the documentation for those products. Refer also
to Appendix B.

Dispose of used batteries according to manufacturer’s

instructions.

2.2 General Specifications

Table 2: General Specifications

Humidity range 0% to 95%

Frequency band 868 to 869 MHz European Security Band

2.3 Installation Procedure

When installing a wLSN Network, you must plan your installation
based on the control panel and wLSN specifications, and the radio-
frequency signal strength (RFSS) between remote devices and the
wLSN Hub.

Bosch Security Systems | 3/06 | F01U009440B F01U009440B 9

wLSN | Reference Guide | 2.0 wLSN General Installation

The wLSN installation procedure consists of two parts:

1. Site testing for radio-frequency signal strength (RFSS) between
remote devices and the wLSN Hub
2. Mounting all wLSN devices

Refer to the control panel’s documentation for detailed

instructions on wLSN programming and device set up.

2.4 Site Testing

Before permanently installing any wLSN device, verify that
the radio-frequency signal strength (RFSS) between the
planned device location and the planned wLSN Hub
location is acceptable.

There are two ways to verify that devices can communicate with
the wLSN Hub:
• Use the wLSN Hub with the remote device operating in RFSS
mode
• Use the wLSN Hub with the Installation Tool
Discovery is the process through which the wLSN Hub
identifies and includes new devices into a system. Only
undiscovered devices can be placed in RFSS mode. To
ensure a device is undiscovered:
1. Remove the batteries.
2. Press and hold the tamper switch button (Figure 1 and
Figure 2 on page 12) for at least 1 second.
3. Reinsert the batteries while holding the tamper switch
button.
4. Release tamper switch button.
This process does not work for the wLSN Smoke Detector.
Refer to Section 13.5 Returning the Smoke Detector to
Undiscovered Mode on page 41.
2.4.1 Preparing the wLSN Hub for Site Testing and RFSS Mode

Note the original switch settings before setting the switches

for RFSS mode.

10 Bosch Security Systems | 3/06 | F01U009440B F01U009440B

 wLSN | Reference Guide | 2.0 wLSN General Installation

1. Rotate the enclosure locking mechanism on the wLSN Hub to

the unlocked position and remove it from the base.
2. Set Switch S1 to 9 and Switch S2 to 2 to enable RFSS mode.
This disables normal operation. Refer to Section 4.1 wLSN Hub
Switches on page 18 for more information on switch settings.
3. Set Switch S3 to a value of 0 to 4, based upon the RF power
level or EN50131 security grade you wish to use:
0= Maximum power
1= 3 dB lower than maximum (Security Grade 1)
2= 6 dB lower than maximum (Security Grade 2)
3= 9 dB lower than maximum (Security Grade 3)
4= 12 dB lower than maximum (Security Grade 4)
Refer to individual device’s specification for their EN50131
classification.

You must test the devices at the same EN50131 Security

Grade at which the control panel discovers the devices.

4. Temporarily mount and wire the wLSN Hub base (refer to

Section 4.0 wLSN Hub on page 18 for more information on the
wLSN Hub).
5. Insert the wLSN Hub back into the base. Rotate the enclosure
locking mechanism to the locked position.
6. Proceed to the appropriate procedure:
• Section 2.4.2 RFSS Testing Between wLSN Hub and Device
• Section 2.4.3 RFSS Testing Between the wLSN Hub and
Installation Tool on page 13

You must use the Installation Tool with the wLSN Smoke
Detector. You cannot determine RFSS with the detector
itself.

2.4.2 RFSS Testing Between wLSN Hub and Device

1. Take the device being tested to its planned mounting location.
2. Remove and re-insert the batteries of the device, then quickly
press and release the tamper switch button (Figure 1 on page
12) or lever (Figure 2 on page 12) four times to enter RFSS
mode.

Bosch Security Systems | 3/06 | F01U009440B F01U009440B 11

wLSN | Reference Guide | 2.0 wLSN General Installation

You must enter RFSS mode within 10 seconds of re-

inserting the batteries.

When RFSS mode is enabled, the LED lights steadily for 5

seconds, then flashes.
3. Hold the device at the planned mounting location.

If the RFSS is unacceptable, reposition the device until an

acceptable location is found. If necessary, reposition the
wLSN Hub.

5. Repeat this procedure for each device you are testing. When
you finish testing the devices, return the wLSN Hub’s switches
to their original position.
Reset the wLSN Hub’s DIP switches to their original settings
to exit RFSS mode. Refer to Section 2.4.1 Preparing the
wLSN Hub for Site Testing and RFSS Mode on page 10.
To cause a device to exit RFSS mode, remove the device's
batteries and re-insert them. Devices automatically exit
RFSS mode after 10 min of inactivity.

2.4.3 RFSS Testing Between the wLSN Hub and Installation Tool
Take the Installation Tool to the device’s planned mounting
location. Refer to Section 3.2 RFSS Testing Between the wLSN Hub
and the Installation Tool on page 15 for details on testing using the

highest level of detection performance.

5.2 Walk Testing

To maximize battery life, the LED elements do not activate

unless the unit is in the Walk Test mode.

Perform a Walk Test to determine the boundaries of the coverage

area. Walk Test mode can be started from the:
• Control Panel: Enter the appropriate command sequence at the
control panel to start the Walk Test mode (refer to the control
panel’s documentation).
• Detector: Slide open and then close the detector cover to start
a 90 second Walk Test mode. Walk Test mode is now active.
Motion detected within the detector’s coverage area activates the
red LED, sends a signal to the control panel, and restarts a 90
second timer. If there is no motion for 80 seconds, the red LED
flashes for the last 10 seconds to indicate Walk Test mode is
ending. Motion detected during the last 10 seconds restarts Walk
Test mode.

9.1 Sensitivity Settings

All sensitivity settings are programmed at the control panel (refer
to your control panel’s documentation for more information). The
sensor element has two settings:
• Gross Attack
• Minor Attack
Gross Attack is always enabled. The Minor Attack setting is very
sensitive and can be disabled.

30 Bosch Security Systems | 3/06 | F01U009440B F01U009440B

 wLSN | Reference Guide | 9.0 wLSN Inertia Detector

9.1.1 Gross Attack Sensitivity

The Gross Attack setting measures vibration activity for a specified
length of time. There are four time settings:
• Low (40 ms)
• Low to medium (35 ms)
• Medium to high ( 30 ms)
• High (25 ms)
The time settings determine the length of time vibration activity is
measured. For example, if the attack setting is low (40 ms) and
constant vibration activity occurs for 40 ms or more an alarm is
transmitted.

9.1.2 Minor Attack

Programming at the control panel determines how many repetitive
taps (single vibrations) detected by the sensor indicate a minor
attack. The Minor Attack setting is either Enabled or Disabled. If it
is Enabled there are two settings:
• Four Taps
• Eight Taps
When a tap occurs, a 90 sec timer starts. If the tap count exceeds
the four or eight count threshold within 90 sec, an alarm is
transmitted.

A single tap such as a branch in the wind lightly brushing a

window can start the minor attack timer and tap count. To
avoid false alarms, do not use the Minor Attack setting
where there is potential for stray vibrations.

9.2 Test Mode

The unit is automatically in Test mode for the first 10 minutes after
power up. The green LED flashes once to indicate initialization is
complete and the unit is in Test mode. Refer to Table 15 on page

(Items 1 and 3, Figure 21 on page 47).
2. Press the red Start button (Item 2, Figure 21 on page 47). The
tester activates and starts an eight-second armed period.
3. If window coverings are present, close them fully.
4. Hold the 13-332 Tester near the point on the glass farthest from
the detector. If window coverings are present, hold the tester
between the glass and window coverings.
5. Carefully strike the glass with a cushioned tool. The 13-332
Tester responds by producing a burst of glass break audio.
If the detector receives both the flex and audio signals properly, its
red Alarm LED lights for 3 sec.
If the red LED does not light, return to Section 2.4 Site Testing on
page 10 to reposition the detector.

14.3.3 Exiting Test Mode

To exit the Test Mode locally:
1. Carefully open the service door of the detector.
2. Insert a screwdriver into the slot next to the sensitivity switches
that contains the test pads (Item 1, Figure 20 on page 46).
3. Touch both test pads at the same time with the tip of the
screwdriver.

When the detector exits Test Mode, the green Event LED(Item 6,
Figure 19 on page 45) stops flashing. If the Event LED continues to
flash, repeat Steps 2 and 3.
To exit the Test Mode remotely:
1. Stand within 3 m of the detector.
2. Move the switches on top of the 13-332 Tester to ACTIVATE and
to MAN modes (Items 1 and 3, Figure 21 on page 47).
3. Point the front of the tester towards the detector and press the
red Start button on top (Item 2, Figure 21 on page 47). The
tester buzzes.

14.4 Low Battery Indication

The detector indicates a low battery condition in two ways:
• If the LEDs are enabled, both flash simultaneously every
second.
• A battery status indication is sent to the control panel.
The LED flashing and a low battery indication at the control panel
are independent of each other and do not necessarily occur at the
same time. Receiving either condition indicates a low battery.
