Conettix Plug-in Cellular Communicators

Cellular plug-in communicators provide communication between the control panel and central
monitoring stations or RPS using a cellular network. The module also sends and receives SMS
messages for personal notification or system configuration.
The control panel supports one Connetix plug-in cellular module (directly plugged into control
panel or plugged into a B450).
Connect a module using the plug-in module connector or using a B450 (refer to the Conettix
Plug-in Communicator Interface (B450) Installation and Operation Guide and B450 Conettix Plug-
in Communicator Interface, page 40). This section includes basic installation instructions. For
detailed instructions, refer to the corresponding Conettix plug-in module document listed in
Related documentation, page 12.
8.2.1

Supervision

The control panel supervises a plug-in cellular communicator when the control panel uses the
module in any of the four route groups as part of either the primary route or the backup route,
and the control panel uses the module to route any personal notifications. Supervision
ensures reliable operation between the module and the control panel.
If supervised and the module does not respond to control panel supervision polls, then a
system fault message shows on the keypads. The control panel sends a corresponding report
to the central station.

Installation and module wiring (B44x)

Ensure that there is enough power for the module and other powered devices you want
connected to the system.
Refer to On-board outputs, page 50.
Caution!
Remove all power (AC and battery) before making any connections. Failure to do so might
!
result in personal injury and/or equipment damage.
Install the module
The module plugs into a connector and is held in place with a plug-in module retention clip.
The module handle and support on top of the module hold the unit during installation.
Plug the module into a control panel by aligning the module with the control panel's on-board
connector. The retention clip has a locking device to help hold the card in position. Pull the
locking device back. Align the PCB metal contacts with the on-board connector. Push the
module into place. The retention clip snaps closed and secures the module in place.
Wire to the antenna
The module has a threaded connector for connection to an antenna. Route the antenna cable
through a wire knockout in the top of the enclosure. Connect the antenna cable to the
module. Secure the antenna cable to the outside of the enclosure.
