DC-to-DC power conversion and/or expand the number of zone inputs. The TG-PEM will accept DC power from the panel auxiliary output and convert to the proper DC voltage required to power itself, the TG-7 Series communicator and a second TG-PEM (if equipped). Powering from the panel eliminates the need for the communicator’s external power supply and the backup battery within the metal enclosure.
Note: When using panel power, the Telguard communicator should be powered exclusively from DC voltage supplied by the TG-PEM. AC power source and battery are NOT used. Because there is no AC connection to the TG-7 or TG-7FS, the AC Indicator (LED 8) will be OFF when operating in DC mode, and an AC Failure Condition (ACFC) will indicate insufficient DC power available.
Swinger is the repetitive opening and closing of a detection circuit or device for no apparent reason. Some central stations may refer to this as a “runaway” account. The TG-PEM allows the installer to enable the swinger feature to limit the number of events transmitted on a specific zone or circuit during an ARMED cycle.
The LEDs serve as indicators for device operation and communication status. When the TG-PEM is operating normally, LED D1 should be off and LED D2 should be lit. When the TG-PEM is in power supply only mode, LED D2 will be solid amber.

This seven-step installation approach provides the alarm installer with the easiest and fastest method of properly installing a Telguard TG-PEM. Please follow the instructions carefully and if you should need assistance or have any questions, please call Telguard Technical Support at 1-800-229-2326 extension 9.
Pre-thread using screws • Use the three provided mounting screws to secure the TG-PEM board onto the bracket in the holes that you pre-threaded. If a second TG-PEM (supporting 9-16 additional zones) is to be installed, do so after completing Step 5.
When both the TG-7 series communicator and the TG-PEM have been activated, LED D2 on the TG-PEM should have a solid light on. If the TG-PEM was configured to be used as a power supply only, the light will be amber. If the TG-PEM was configured to be used as both a power supply and to provide additional zones, LED D2 will be green.
Check with your AHJ to understand how these restrictions impact your installation. • Prior to making connections to the zone inputs, verify that LED D2 on the TG-PEM is solid green. If it is solid amber, your TG-PEM is not configured to use zone inputs and should be reconfigured. Consult Appendix 3 for troubleshooting on any other light pattern appears.
Optional: Connect supervisory trip output The TG-PEM may be configured to control the STC1 relay on the TG-7 series communicator from www.telguard.com. STC1 relay control may be used trigger local annunciation on the FACP for pre-determined input zones. UL Note for Commercial Fire applications: STC1 relay must be connected to the panel’s input zone to annunciate trouble...
Appendix 1 – Installing a Second TG-PEM A second TG-PEM can be used to provide additional dry contact inputs. One TG-PEM provides up to 8 inputs, while a second TG-PEM can provide a total of 9-16 inputs. The mounting bracket and circuit board for a second TG-PEM will be mounted upside-down inside the TG-7 series enclosure when compared to the first TG-PEM device.
Installing Circuit Board Use the three provided TG-PEM mounting screws to secure the second TG-PEM circuit board onto the bracket. Wiring Connections Power Connections: • Follow instructions to connect first TG-PEM. • Connect power and ground from “POWER PASS THRU” terminal of the first TG-PEM to the “PANEL POWER”...

Commercial Burglar Installation The TG-7 Series and TG-PEM work together as a system. The TG-PEM device that is getting the panel power is referred to as the “First TG-PEM”. The second TG-PEM device is optional, and its connections are depicted in red.
The TG-7FS and the TG-PEM work together as a system. For commercial fire installations, one or two TG-PEM devices may be used. FACP relay outputs are connected to TG-PEM zone inputs and the TG-7FS STC1 relay output is connected to a FACP input zone to indicate all trouble conditions.
