Model Information; Panel Mounting; Safety Information - DSC 3G2080 Installation Manual

IMPORTANT
This installation manual shall be used in conjunction with the control panel. All the safety instructions specified within that
manual shall be observed. The control panel is referenced as the "panel" throughout this document. This installation guide
provides the basic wiring, programming and troubleshooting information.
The HSPA(3G) /dual-path alarm communicator is a fixed, wall-mounted unit, and shall be installed in the location specified in
these instructions.The equipment enclosure must be fully assembled and closed, with all the necessary screws/tabs, and
secured to a wall before operation. Internal wiring must be routed in a manner that prevents:
Excessive strain on wire and on terminal connections,
l
Interference between power limited and non power limited wiring,
l
Loosening of terminal connections, or
l
Damage of conductor insulation.
l
WARNING: Never install this equipment during a lightning storm!

Safety Information

The installer must instruct the system user on each of the following:
Do not attempt to service this product. Opening or removing covers may expose the user to dangerous voltages or other
l
risks.
Any servicing shall be referred to service persons only.
l
Use authorized accessories only with this equipment.
l

This manual covers the following models of alarm communicators: TL2803GR, TL2803G, 3G2080R, 3G2080 (850/1900MHz
operation), TL2803GR-EU, TL2803G-EU, 3G2080R-EU, 3G2080-EU (900/2100MHz operation), TL2803G-AU, 3G2080- AU,
TL2803GR-AU, and 3G2080R- AU (850/2100MHz operation) . References to model names TL2803G (R) and 3G2080 (R)
throughout this manual apply to all specified models unless stated differently. Models ending in "R" include a built- in RS- 232
interface for connecting to local third party applications.
The TL2803G(R)/3G2080(R) supports integration over cellular/IP, available with licensed third party product solutions. Specific
programming for the related programming sections is to be provided by the third party. A current list of compatible third party
solutions can be found at www.dsc.com.
3G2080(R): Is a HSPA(3G) cellular alarm communicator that sends alarm communication to Sur- Gard System I, II, III (SG-
DRL3IP), IV (SG-DRL4IP), and 5 (SG-DRL5IP) central station receivers via a HSPA(3G)/GPRS digital cellular network.
TL2803G(R): Is a dual-path HSPA(3G) Ethernet alarm communicator that sends alarm communication to Sur-Gard System I,
II, III, IV, and 5 central station receivers through Ethernet/Internet or a HSPA(3G)/GPRS digital cellular network.
The communicator can be used as either a backup or primary communicator. The communicator supports Internet Protocol (IP)
transmission of panel and communicator events over Ethernet/Internet and/or HSPA/GPRS.
The cellular performance of the 3G2080(R) or TL2803G(R) communicator depends greatly on HSPA(3G)/GPRS network cov-
erage in the local area. The unit should not be mounted in the final location without first performing the communicator place-
ment test below to determine the best location for radio reception (minimum of one green LED ON). Optional antenna kits (GS-
15ANTQ, GS-25ANTQ and GS-50ANTQ) are available from DSC to improve signal strength as required.
NOTE: Prior to installation of the 3G2080(R) or TL2803G (R) communicator, confirm with the local service provider that the
HSPA(3G)/GPRS network is available and active in the area where the communicator will be installed, and that radio
signal strength (CSQ) is adequate.
The following communicators are compatible with HS2016, HS2032, HS2064, and HS2128 panels:
3G2080(R) (HSPA(3G)/GPRS only)
l
TL2803G(R) (Ethernet/Internet + HSPA(3G)/GPRS dual-path)
l
128-bit AES encryption via cellular and Ethernet/Internet (NIST validation cert. number 2645).
l
Back up or primary cellular alarm communication.
l
Automatically switches to 2G (EDGE/GPRS) if HSPA(3G) service is not available.
l
Ethernet LAN/WAN 10/100 BASE-T (TL2803G(R) only).
l
Fully redundant Ethernet/Internet and cellular dual-path alarm communication (TL2803G(R) only).
l
Full event reporting to central station.
