Discrete Alarms Discrete alarm points can connect as a dry contact or a contact to ground This device features 16 discrete alarm inputs — also called digital inputs or contact closures. Discrete alarms are either active or inactive, so they're typically used to monitor on/off conditions like power outages, equipment failures, door alarms and so on.
Analog Alarms The Cell16 's analog alarm inputs measure continuous ranges of voltage or current. Analog alarms are typically used to monitor battery voltage, charging current, temperature, humidity, wind speed, or other continuously changing conditions. The measurement range of the analog channels is -90 to +90 VDC or 4 to 20 mA. To configure the analogs for current sensing (4 - 20mA) please review the next section for jumper position.

Note: Some sensors may consume 2 analog channels (the combined temp/humidity sensor, D-PK-DSNSR-12002, for example). Connecting D-Wire Sensors Warning: Be sure to only use a straight-through RJ-11 cable (part #D-PR-901-10A-XX, pinout below) to connect any digital sensor port on the Cell16 to the In jack on a D-Wire sensor. Chain additional sensors to the D-Wire sensor (using the same straight-through cables) from the Out jack on the previous sensor to the In jack on the next (i.e.
GPRS/CDMA Wireless Modem The Cell16 is available with an optional GPRS/GSM or CDMA wireless modem, allowing you to report alarms from your remote sites without LAN or dialup connections via SMS notifications over a cellular band. On the back of your Cell16 with a wireless modem, you'll see the antenna node protrude from the back panel of the unit and a label above the node indicating the type of modem - GPRS/GSM (Sprint) or CDMA (Verizon) - installed in your unit.
Page 19
The Antenna attaches to the Cell16 's back panel to facilitate cellular signal reception Note: Your Cell16 cannot have both wireless and dialup modems. If you ordered your Cell16 with the wireless modem, it will not have a dialup modem or the ability to send alphanumeric pager notifications.
Wireless Modem Activation WARNING: Do not reset or power off the modem during activation. 1. Set up your wireless data account through Multi-Tech or your preferred service provider. 2. Verify that the antenna is screwed onto the back panel of the unit. 3.
Important: If you are having trouble finding your modem's model number, please contact DPS support at 559-454-1600. Quick Start: How to Connect to the Cell16 Most Cell16 users find it easiest to give the unit an IP address, subnet and gateway through the front craft port (TTY interface) to start.

10.4 Setting up Backup Mode This section will guide you through the process of setting up Backup Mode. Backup Mode is a system alarm feature capable of alerting you in the instance that DCP, SNMP, or a Notification fails. Even in instances LAN failure, Backup Mode works wirelessly with SMS notifications to make sure that you receive an alert.
10.4.1 How to Setup or SMS Notifications in Backup Mode Only You can choose to have the Cell16 send you an SMS or Voice notification in the instance that a condition fails and Backup Mode becomes active. After choosing the conditions of Backup Mode, as outlined in Section 10.5, proceed to the steps below.
Page 41
4. After setting up your Backup Mode notification, you will need to assign that notification to an alarm. Backup Mode notifications are typically used to alert you in instances that LAN-based notifications fail to deliver. You can assign your Backup Mode to an alarm by checking the notification number on the Provisioning > Alarms menu. Note: The Cell16 cycles through alarm notifications in numerical order.
