Installation
Step 3: Connect the PC-Link Cable
Note: To ensure correct orientation, refer to items A and C in the wiring diagrams for the proper position of
the red wire on the PC-link cable.
Connect one end of the supplied PC-Link cable to the PC-Link header on the PCL-422
l
Connect the other end of the PC-Link cable to the PC-LINK_2 header on the alarm panel
l
Step 4: Connect External Antenna (Optional)
Upgraded antennas are available for the 3G8080(I) /CD8080(I) if there is inadequate cellular reception at the
preferred mounting location. Contact DSC technical support for antenna options.
The 3G8080(I)/CD8080(I) has two covered access ports on the top of the enclosure. Remove the plastic tab
covering the desired port and either mount the antenna on the enclosure or use the opening to pass through the
antenna cable.
Note: Due to the curvature of the enclosure, the plastic port covers are NOT interchangeable. Ensure that any
unused ports are covered with their original plastic tab.
Warning: The external antenna must be installed in a manner to prevent end users from accessing any con-
ductive part of the anntena or antenna cable (i.e., recessed mounting or equivalent).
Step 5: Power Up
Connect panel battery and AC power. Once an HSPA/CDMA module is connected to a powered control panel,
view key items on the LCD. Ensure that the module has been fully connected to the alarm panel via quad cable
as shown in wiring diagram.
HSPA/CDMA Phone Test (Module Registration)
To initiate module communication with Alarm.com and the HSPA/CDMA network for the first time, perform
an "HSPA/CDMA phone test". Note that the phone test can also be used at any time by the installer to force
communication with Alarm.com. Perform a phone test by pressing and holding [3] for two seconds. A phone
test can also be completed through the Interactive Services menu. To perform the phone test, press [*][6] fol-
lowed by the master code and [04].
The panel indicates when the HSPA/CDMA phone test has completed by activating the siren output on medium
volume for 2 seconds followed by full volume for 2 seconds. However, if the phone test was initiated via the
[3] key, or through the Interactive Services menu, the siren will not sound. All display lights and LCD pixels
turn on. This indicates that Alarm.com has received and acknowledged the signal. This does not guarantee that
the signal went through to a central station; it confirms that Alarm.com's Network Operations Center received
the signal. The central station should be contacted directly to verify that the signal was received on the correct
account and that the central station routing settings have been set up correctly. If the signal does not go through
to the Central Station, the panel will display a "Failure to Communicate" message. Double check the account's
Central Station Forwarding Settings on Alarm.com and contact technical support if the trouble persists.
Enroll Alarm.com Image Sensor
Note: The Alarm.com Image Sensor is compatible with models ending with "I" (i.e., 3G8080I and CD8080I).
1. Ensure batteries are removed from the sensor.
2. On the panel, enter the Interactive Services menu. Interactive Services can be accessed, via section [851]
of Installer Programming.
3. Press [*][8] [Installer Code] [851].
4. Scroll to Image Sensor Setup and press [*].
5. Scroll to Learn Image Sensor and press [*]. The keypad will display "Power up or reset I.S. now."
