5.5 Installation

It is mandatory that the power be removed from the system
before any wiring changes are performed on the Skyroute
module. Neglecting to do so will result in damage to the
Skyroute transceiver.

5.6 Mounting the Skyroute Transceiver

The Skyroute transceiver can be mounted in the upper right
hand corner of the panel's cabinet through the knockout. The
Skyroute transceiver case attaches to the panel's cabinet
through the use of clips and two screws.

The antenna attaches to the TNC connector of the Skyroute
transceiver. The antenna should be mounted as high above
ground level as possible while at the same time care should
be taken not to place the antenna under a radio frequency
shield of any kind. For example, do not mount the antenna
directly below a metal roofing overhang. The Skyroute trans-
ceiver functions best when installed in an unobstructed line
of sight to the cellular antenna site.

5.8 Keybus Connection

The Skyroute transmitter has 4 terminals marked red, black,
yellow and green. Connect these four terminals to the 4
terminals on the main control panel marked Keybus (red,
black, yellow and green).

5.9 Bell IN Terminal

This terminal is used to power the Cellemetry modem of the
Skyroute module. This connects to the BELL + on the
control panel. No other wire should be connected to the
Bell+ of the control panel.
An extra power supply can be used to power the modem if
it is not located near the main control panel or is located
where the system cannot provide enough power for the
transmissions. Connect the positive of the power supply to
the BELL IN and the negative to the COM to ensure proper
grounding (see diagram on this page).

5.10 Bell OUT Terminal

This terminal is used to power the siren or any other devices

that would usually connect to the control panel BELL+
terminal. This output is powered through the 5A fuse for
protection of the radio transmitting power.

5.11 Tamper Terminal

Connect TAM and COM to a normally closed switch that will
be used to monitor tamper. If no tamper switch is desired
place a wire between TAM and COM.

5.12 Secure Installation

For a secure installation, the Skyroute transceiver and its host
panel must be locked and protected. An instant trip IR sensor
would be the most appropriate for supervision of the panel. A
cabinet tamper switch connected to the TAM terminal of the
Skyroute transceiver is also suggested.
WARNING
Remove all AC and battery
power from main control panel
before wiring the Skyroute
module, or damage to the
unit will occur.
