Fleetwood is unique in the marketplace with its
patented technology to provide a two-way link with
the keypads. This design ensures that no responses
are missed by requiring a keypad to retransmit the
user’s response until it is properly received by the
Base Station. The design also allows the system to
refuse to acknowledge any invalid entries. This is
clearly superior to other technologies using one-way
radio or infrared, which do not provide
acknowledgment to the keypad when its entry is
received and do not have any way of rejecting invalid
entries.
3.2 Placement of the Reply

System
The Base Station can be located anywhere in the area
where the keypads are to be used. WRS7200
keypads can operate in a room up to 300’ x 300’ in
size. Despite a robust communication system, walls
and some other 2.4 GHz devices can moderately to
severely limit the WRS970 system’s performance. If
coverage of a larger area is necessary, elevation of
the Base Station or centering in room can usually
improve the reception of the keypad signals.
NOTE: Due to the properties of signals operating at
2.4 GHz, Fleetwood does not recommend placing any
walls between the base station and the keypads. The
material in a wall tends to absorb the RF signal and
slightly reduced performance might be observed.

3.3 Configure Base for Connection Type
Both types of connections can be connected to the
Base unit simultaneously. However, the Base can
only communicate through one of the two. No
buttons exist as the Base determines the connection
method based how power is first applied to the unit.
If power is first connected using USB, USB is
selected. If power is first applied using the external
DC jack or the built-in PoE, Ethernet is selected. The
base will present on the LCD at power up which
connection is activated.

The WRS970 Base Station is the control center for
the system and operates according to commands
issued by the application software. The Base Station
can be set to any of the 31 available channels through
the WRS970 OCX module. Each Base Station can
process responses from up to 500 keypads.
3.4 Connecting to PC
A radio frequency packet is continuously sent out by
the base station when the unit is powered on. Each
base station’s packet can only be heard by keypads
that have been set to the same channel.
