Page 3: About The Communicator
The iComSL Series Universal Alarm Communicator Zone 4 allows a connection to the bell output of an existing control panel. The communicator operates in a variety of applications: CID Dialer Connection, Zones 1‑4 Input Connections, or Zone 4 Bell Connection. -
Page 4: Programming (Prog) Connection
Programming (PROG) Connection A 4‑pin programming header is provided to connect a keypad when using a DMP Model 330 programming cable. This provides a quick and easy connection for programming the communicator. For 24 VDC applications using the iComSLF, connect the keypad using a Model 330‑24 4‑wire programming harness with an in‑line resistor. After programming is complete, remove the keypad. -
Page 5: Backlit Logo
Backlit Logo The backlit logo indicates the power and armed status of the communicator. Depending on the operation, the LED displays in red or green as listed in the Table 1. The LED indicates the armed state and status of the system primary power. -
Page 6: Installation
INSTALLATION Mount the Communicator The communicator should be mounted to a wall using the included #6 screws in the mounting holes. See Figure 1. Mount the communicator in a secure, dry place to protect the communicator from damage due to tampering or the elements. -

Page 8: Applications
APPLICATIONS The communicator can be used in a variety of applications. CID Dialer Connection Connect the tip and ring from the control panel directly to the communicator to capture Contact ID messages that RESET are based on the SIA communication standard DC‑05‑1999.09‑DCS. These messages are then formatted into a serial 3 message and sent to a DMP Model SCS‑1R or SCS‑VR receiver. -
Page 9: Zone 4 Bell Connection
Zone 4 Bell Connection Zone 4 (Z4+ and Z4‑) can be connected to the control panel bell output. This zone detects an alarm condition on the control panel by monitoring the voltage and cadence timing of the bell output. The communicator evaluates the first 3.5 seconds of bell cadence timing to detect the type of alarm sent. - Page 10 MODEL iComSL DMP Panel Use 18-22 AWG 12 VDC Aux.

Page 11: Ademco/Honeywell Ecp Connection
Ademco/Honeywell ECP Connection The communicator can be connected to the ECP Bus of an Ademco/Honeywell panel. See Table 3 and Figure 8 for the necessary wiring connections for the iComSL to communicate with the Ademco/Honeywell ECP Bus. Communicator to ECP Wiring Communicator Ademco/Honeywell ECP Bus Keypad Power Keypad GND... - Page 12 User Codes in the Ademco/Honeywell Panel Because the communicator duplicates the panel’s user codes, existing user codes in the Ademco/Honeywell panel, including master, must be added to the communicator. Any new user codes added to the communicator from the Virtual Keypad app will be automatically entered in the Ademco/Honeywell panel. User codes from the Ademco/Honeywell panel that are designated as master or partition master should be configured as master codes in the communicator.
