Orbi RBR50 - Adding an additional RBR50

I have an Orbi RBR50 Router with 2 RBS50 satellites. I purchased an additional RBR50 to add onto the system, but it cannot be found on the wireless network. Since it is a router, can I not add it to the existing router mesh network?

    you'd need a satellite to integrate with it. 

    I know some of the versions of the router could have firmware forced to them to run as a satellite. You won't find it on the official forums and it'll void your warranty
