Telguard Installation and Operating Instructions Manual
Backup Battery must be provided by installer.
2. You must also have certain installation test tools.
•
A standard telephone or lineman's butt-set is required at the job site for use in programming the unit.
•
Optimal signal strength is determined by placing the unit and antenna where the most LEDs (up to
four) are lighted when using Telguard's on-board Signal Strength Indicator feature so that the unit can
be easily placed during installation where signal strength is greatest. Upon location selection, screws
and a screwdriver will be required to attach the unit and antenna to the wall.
NOTE: Your unit may be subject to airtime charges for unintended use. Telular Cellular Service
(TCS) offers several cellular service rate plans. Check the Activation form that was shipped with
your unit or call us to determine what rate plan each unit is operating under.
3. Confirmation from the Telular Communications Center that the Telguard Digital unit is ready for installation
and registration. Registration is the process of establishing communications from the Alarm Panel to the
Telular Communication Center.
