Introduction The Permaconn system provides two-way communication between supervised premises and the Monitoring Centre. The Permaconn PM45-3G v2 is a versatile state of the art mi- croprocessor based 3G and IP security communicator. This unit can interface with a range of alarm panels using RS232, Contact ID.
Atlas Atlas is a secure web portal that enables users to activate and interrogate their Permaconn 3G/IP communicators remotely for diagnostic and control purposes. This portal can be accessed via the web using any Smartphone, Tablet or PC. We strongly recommend using the portal primary and backup connection to verify your install.
Signal strength low or trying to reconnect Resetting the PM45-3G v1 1. With DC power applied use the small green screwdriver supplied in the box with the PM45-3G v1 insert screwdriver into reset slot shown and depress reset button for: Five (5) seconds to reset.
Outputs are ‘Open Collector’ @50mA switching 12vDC negative—for heavier loads a re- lay must be used. Ensure there is a common negative between the PM45-3G v1 and the device being switch. The outputs can be opened, closed or pulsed using the Atlas web portal ...
A significant reduction in performance occurs if an antenna does not have an adequate ground plane. If signal strength is low, a high gain aerial may be required. The Permaconn Part N# is ‘ANTH3G’ Extension cables for the high gain aerial are available...
The PM45-3G v1 will automatically obtain an IP address if it is set to DHCP (default). Power is normally obtained from the Alarm Panel. In case of AC loss the PM45-3G v1 will continue to work using the alarm panels battery backup.

‘CID’ LED will be [Red - On] indicating a fault. This lead is also used to monitor the intercon- nectivity between the Alarm Panel dialler and the PM45-3G v1. If the dialler lead is removed a ‘Dialler Lead Interface Fail’ event will be sent to the Monitoring Centre. This will indicate that the panel has lost connectivity with the PM45-3G v1.
Arm & Disarm reporting must be enabled. (This is required for the Pocket Secure App) Force the alarm panel to send a Contact ID event to the monitoring station The PM45-3G v1 obtains the Panel ID directly from the Alarm Panel after the first valid contact ID event is sent.
The PM45-3G v1 must be online and can be pinged with Atlas. Important – If the PM45-3G v1 is an online existing unit a power cycle may be required to enable the IP. To change values, simply modify the fields and select [Update]. When the PM45 is switched on it initialises with the default settings, so a large percentage of installations should work right away.
You can use any port above 10000, not critical. Remote Port [55300] UDP This must match the ‘listen’ port of the Permaconn server, the default should be correct for your country. This port is vital - if incorrect the unit will not be able to connect.
Permaconn Communicator—Cellular network path poll fail. Permaconn Communicator—Communicator is offline. Auxiliary 1—Auxilliary input alarm on communicator. Panel ID Clash— When two (2) Permaconn devices are reporting to the same Control Room on the same line number using the same account number.
The socket-outlet must be installed near the equipment and easily accessible. The unit must only be operated with the supplied antennas. Install the PM45-3G v1 in a location that no person [s] is closer than 200 mm to the antennas at all times.
