Communicator Installation Configuration
This HSPA(3G)/dual- path alarm communicator shall be installed by service persons only (service person is defined as a per-
son having the appropriate technical training and experience necessary to be aware of hazards to which that person may be
exposed to in performing a task and can also take measures to minimize the risks to that person or other persons). The Com-
municator shall be installed and used within an environment that provides the pollution degree max 2, overvoltages category II,
in non-hazardous, indoor locations only. This manual shall be used with the installation manual of the panel which is con-
nected to the communicator. All instructions specified within the panel manual must be observed.
All the local rules imposed by local electrical codes shall be observed and respected during installation.
Installing the Ethernet Cable (TLXXXX Models Only)
A Category 5 (CAT 5) Ethernet cable must be run from a source with Internet connectivity to the communicator module, inside
the panel. The communicator end of the cable must be terminated with an RJ45 plug, which will connect to the communicator's
RJ45 jack after the communicator is installed. All requirements for installation of CAT5 Ethernet cable must be observed for cor-
rect operation of the communicator, including, but not limited to, the following:
Do NOT strip off cable sheathing more than required for proper termination.
l
Do NOT kink/knot cable.
l
Do NOT crush cable with cable ties.
l
Do NOT untwist CAT5 pairs more than ½ in. (1.2cm).
l
Do NOT splice cable.
l
Do NOT bend cable at right angles or make any other sharp bends.
l
NOTE: CAT5 specification requires that any cable bend must have a minimum 2 in. (5 cm) bend radius. Maximum length of
CAT 5 cable is 328 ft. (100 m).
Inserting and Removing the SIM Card
1. Remove the front cover of the panel to access SIM holder.
2. Remove power from the panel and disconnect the battery and telephone line.
3. On the SIM card holder push gently to slide the cover downwards to OPEN. This will unlatch the SIM card holder on the
top edge of the communicator PCB. (See Figure 3).
4. Tilt the top of the SIM card holder downwards to access the SIM card.
NOTE: The SIM can be damaged by bending or scratching contacts. Use caution when handling SIM cards.
5. Insert or remove the SIM card, noting the orientation of the notches on the SIM card and the SIM card holder.
6. When inserting a SIM card, insert the card in the proper orientation and gently push the SIM card holder down and slide
the holder as indicated by the arrow on SIM holder, to LOCK.
7. Reconnect the backup battery and telephone line, apply AC power to panel, and replace the panel cover.
Running the RS-232 Cable (R models only)
When installing the communicator for use with 3rd party applications an RS-232 cable must be connected between the 3rd
party device and the communicator module.
NOTE: Maximum cable length for RS-232 cable is 8 ft. (2.4 m).
Please refer to the installation manual for the 3rd party device for wiring instructions.
Installing Communicator with HS2016, HS2032, HS2064, and HS2128 Panel
NOTE: Before installing communicator or inserting/removing SIM, ensure that system power is OFF and telephone line is dis-
connected.
1. To assemble supplied mounting bracket, perform the following: (See Figure 1).
a. Remove the 4 white plastic standoffs from the bag provided with the communicator kit.
b. Insert the 4 standoffs through the back of the mounting bracket, into the holes at each corner. (The antenna mount-
ing tab should be facing away from you).
c. Place the bracket on a flat, solid surface. Hold the communicator component side up and orient the 4 holes on the
communicator with the 4 standoffs protruding from the bracket. Push the communicator firmly and evenly onto the
standoffs until it is securely attached to the mounting bracket.
d. Remove the panel front cover.
e. Remove and discard the circular knockout located in the top-right section of the panel. (This hole will be used for con-
nection of the supplied radio antenna).
