Adding S8/S9 wireless sensors to FLEXi SP3¶

The Protegus app must be installed on your phone and the SP3 system already added to your account.

1. Open the Protegus app and select the SP3 kit system. Tap ⋮ in the top-right corner.

   

2. Tap System configuration.

   

3. Tap Devices.

   

4. Tap the + button to add a new sensor.

   

5. Select the sensor type you want to pair (e.g. Smart PET PIR detector).

   

6. The app shows the sensor in Learning mode with a diagram of the learn button. Press and hold the learn button until the green indicator stays lit for 2 seconds.

   

7. When the sensor is detected, a confirmation appears with its serial number. Tap OK.

   

8. The sensor appears in the list with a NEW badge.

   

Configure zone settings:

9. Tap the sensor to open its settings. Tap Zone settings to expand the section.

   

10. Set the Definition (e.g. 24 hours) and Type (e.g. NO), then tap Confirm.

    

11. To add another sensor, tap + and repeat steps 5–10. When all sensors are paired, tap Next.

    

12. A success dialog confirms the pairing. Tap Close.

    

Verify zone status:

13. From the system home screen, tap the Area 1 tile.

    

14. Tap Zone statuses.

    

15. The Zone status / bypass screen lists all zones. A red alert icon means the sensor is currently open or triggered. Bypass toggles let you temporarily disable individual zones.

    

Open web.protegus.app in a desktop browser. The SP3 system must already be added to your account.

1. Select the SP3 system from the left panel, then click Devices in the system menu.

   

2. Click the + button to add a new wireless sensor.

   

3. The Add wireless sensor panel opens with all supported sensor types. Click the sensor type you want to pair (e.g. Smart PET PIR detector).

   

4. The app switches to Learning mode and shows the sensor with a diagram indicating the learn button location.

   Press and hold the learn button until the green indicator stays lit for 2 seconds (approximately 4–5 seconds).

   

5. When the panel detects the sensor, a confirmation appears with its serial number. Click OK.

   

6. The sensor appears in the list with a NEW badge. To add another sensor, click + and repeat steps 3–5. When all sensors are paired, click Next.

   

7. A success dialog confirms the pairing. Click Close.

   

Configure zone settings:

8. In the Devices list, click a paired sensor to open its settings. Click Zone settings to expand the section.

   

9. Set the Definition (e.g. Instant) and Type (e.g. NO) for the zone.

   

Verify zone status:

10. From the home screen, click the Area 1 tile.

    

11. Click Zone statuses.

    

12. The Zone status / bypass panel lists all zones. A red alert icon on a zone means the sensor is currently open or triggered. Bypass toggles let you temporarily disable individual zones.

    

Two sub-methods: remote (over network) or local (USB, no network needed).

Remote pairing¶

Requirements: activated SIM with PIN disabled, mobile internet on SIM, Protegus cloud enabled, SP3 powered on (PWR LED green blinking), SP3 online (NET LED green solid + yellow blinking).

1. Open TrikdisConfig. In the Remote access section, enter the panel's Unique ID (printed on the device label), then click Configure.

   

2. Click Read [F4]. Enter admin or installer code if prompted.

3. Go to Wireless sensors and click Learn sensors.

   

4. The Learning mode dialog opens. For each sensor, press and hold the learn button for 5 seconds until it flashes green four times.

   

   

5. When a sensor is detected, the New device was found dialog opens. Set the Zone number and Zone definition (e.g. Instant), then click Save.

   

6. The Learning mode status line confirms the device was registered. Repeat steps 4–5 for each additional sensor.

   

7. Click Stop learning. When prompted to save the new parameters, click Yes.

   

8. Click Read [F4]. The Wireless sensors tab now lists all registered sensors with their serial numbers.

   

9. Open the Zones tab. Confirm zone and area assignments. Set Type to EOL-T to enable tamper monitoring. Click Write [F5].

   

Local pairing (no network)¶

The RF-S8 transceiver has a LEARN button on its circuit board — use it to enter and exit learning mode without a PC connection.

1. Confirm the RF-S8 is registered with the SP3 (visible in Modules list after firmware setup).
2. Power on the SP3.
3. Remove the RF-S8 cover.
4. Hold the RF-S8 LEARN button until the NETWORK LED flashes green/red. Release.
5. Pair each sensor: hold learn button 5 s → four green flashes. NETWORK LED turns solid green briefly after each success.
6. When done, hold the RF-S8 LEARN button until NETWORK LED stops flashing. Release — transceiver exits learning mode.
7. Connect USB Mini-B to SP3. Open TrikdisConfig → Read [F4].
8. Confirm serial numbers in Wireless sensors tab.
9. Assign zones and areas in the Zones tab → Write [F5].

Remove a wireless sensor¶

1. Connect to SP3 (USB or remote) → Read [F4].
2. In Wireless sensors, set the sensor's Device type to Disabled.
3. Click Write [F5].
