2. In Fire Alarm Service: When used in conjunction with a Listed central station fire alarm control unit with a two- telco line integral or Listed DACT, the combined control/communicator and Telguard T200C001 meet the requirements for commercial fire alarm usage under UL 864 and NFPA. This enables the T200C001 to be the second "phone line" in commercial fire installations.
1993, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) proposed the adoption of this updated Standard. The design of your Telular Telguard DataBurst complies with this updated Standard. Of course, if you want to limit RF exposure even further than the updated ANSI Standard, you may choose to install the unit in a manner that locates its antenna at an even greater distance from the general public than is recommended as a minimum by the standard.
XPLOSIVE TMOSPHERES Turn OFF your unit when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your Telguard DataBurst or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. Located on the inside of the hinged door of Telguard models T200C001 and T300C001 is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC Registration Number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. If requested, this information must be provided to the Telephone Company.

This equipment, like any other electrical device is subject to component failure. Although this equipment is designed to be long lasting, the electrical components could fail at any time. Due to these limitations, we recommend that if the automatic self-test feature is not enabled, other arrangements be made with the user to test the system at least once every three months.

In a typical alarm installation, Telguard is installed in the same area as the host alarm system. The incoming telco line is connected from the RJ31X to Telguard and then to the host control/communicator's digital dialer in the normal fashion.
In order for the C/C to be compatible with the Telguard, the C/C must be programmed to transmit alarm messages to the central station using one of the following non-extended formats: •...
OWER UPERVISION Telguard monitors its backup battery as well as its AC power source and reports low or missing power conditions from either. Telguard’s integrated control and power module, protected by a 3 amp 3AG fuse, incorporates battery charger circuitry that is jumper selectable for high or low battery capacities. The high battery capacity selection is used for 12V 7Ah, or 12V 21Ah batteries.
NFC/LFC trip delay time, and standby battery size. If operating parameters are not uploaded to the Communication Center, a "missing parameters (MP) condition" exists and the Telguard will not operate. When an MP condition exists, the Telguard causes the STC LED to light and the STC (System Trouble) trip output to occur.
3.0 Request Telguard Activation for Cellular Service from Telular There are two ways that you may activate cellular service for a Telguard. Both methods require the activation information to be completed and approved prior to installing the Telguard. The Telguard can only be activated when all the necessary accounting information has been entered into the customer database located at the Telular Communication Center.
ADIO ETWORK Next, you will be connecting the C/C's digital dialer output to Telguard and verifying that alarm signals can be reliably sent through Telguard over cellular to the central station digital receiver. The incoming Telco line is not connected to Telguard during this step.
Once alarms are being successfully transmitted over cellular by the C/C, you will be ready to connect Telguard to the incoming phone line at the RJ31X and check that it properly switches to and from cellular upon telco restoral and telco line fault. Telguard's supervisory trip output (normally open) is connected to a 24-hour zone of the C/C and then tested.
Be sure the C/C is powered up and programmed so that it will transmit a simple alarm signal over the telco line through the RJ31X to the central station when not connected to the Telguard. In checking this, do not connect the host C/C or incoming telco line to the Telguard.
5.2.1 Locate Unit Pick a spot next to the C/C where you think the Telguard will be mounted and place the unit down temporarily in that spot. Do not mount it permanently now, since it may need to be moved to receive a better cellular radio signal or a remote high-gain antenna may be necessary.
5.2.2 Connect Backup Battery and AC Power Transformer To apply power on models T200C001 or T300C001 attach battery leads to terminals 3 (-) and 4 (+) noting polarity and program Telguard memory location 67 (see section 5.2.5) for proper battery capacity.
Fill out the following Telguard Programming Data Sheet. The completed data sheet enables you to properly install and test the Telguard as well as provide a valuable aid to future troubleshooting if it becomes necessary. Detach and retain this data sheet in your customer account file for future reference.
For example, to re-program the Telguard to transmit over the "A" carrier, the installer would power down the Telguard; put jumper J5 "IN", connect the buttset to T and R test pins, and then power up the unit. After approximately 10 seconds, four tones will be sounded on the buttset indicating entry into programming mode.
If moving the Telguard to a different location is not practical, then you may need a longer cable on the remote antenna in order to receive adequate radio signal strength. Pick a high, visually secure spot, using the guidelines below.
Telguard and allows the Telguard to communicate over the cellular network. A successful "ping" causes the red STC LED to turn off. Additionally, if the Telguard is programmed to monitor LFC, then the STC LED will begin to flash 3 times indicating a telco line fault condition since there is no telco line connected to J1 at this time.

Note to Installers: The Telguard must be powered-up with antenna connected in order to receive the " activation ping ". Also, the Telular IVR system will allow you to enter a TEST menu to access the Telguard's operational history (e.g., number of occurrences of ACFC, LBC, LFC, and NSC since the last self-test transmission to the communication center).
Confirm that the Telguard enables the host C/C to transmit alarm signals over the cellular radio network. In checking this, do not connect the incoming telco line to the Telguard or connect the supervisory trip output (STC) to the C/C zone input.
♦ Call Telular Technical Service, 800-229-2326, and request the Communication Center operator to check the Telguard programming configuration for proper operation on " A " carrier or " B " carrier and proper communications format . The Telguard MUST be programmed to use the SAME FORMAT that the C/C is using (e.g.
The Telguard monitors voltage on the incoming phone line to decide when to switch transmission paths. This requires that the Telguard must be the first device on the telco line . If not, a line fault condition will be created (we call this a "phantom trip") each time the improperly connected device goes off-hook.
5.4.2 Connect RJ31X to Telguard Jack 1 and Check LFC Find the modular Jack-to-Jack (J/J) cable supplied and connect one end to Telguard Jack 1 and other end to the RJ31X. Note that the STC LED goes out and the STC relay returns to normal due to telco line restoral.
If the AC power is restored for 60 seconds or more, then the 6-hour timer restarts. When you are sure that the Telguard is monitoring the telco path and cellular path correctly and the C/C is correctly reporting the STC supervisory trip output, move on to Step 5.
5.5.1 Check Settings Check the jumper setting of J5 (LED mode, out = normal). 5.5.2 Permanently Mount and Properly Ground the Telguard Chassis Attach earth ground to the green grounding screw located on lower left-hand corner of printed circuit board assembly and permanently mount the Telguard chassis.
