T-Link Programming Section
[001] Module IP (Static IP address for the T-Link module)
Unique IP address for the module. The network administrator will pro-
vide this information.
Default: 000 000 000 000
[002] Subnet Mask
Must equal the subnet mask for the local subnet. For any single subnet,
there is only one valid subnet mask; all nodes on the same subnet will
use the same subnet mask. The network administrator will provide this
information.
Default: 000 000 000 000
[003] Receiver IP (Static IP address for the receiver)
Program the IP address of the central station receiver.
Default: 000 000 000 000
[004] T-Link Gateway
If the T-Link must communicate through a local gateway to connect
with the receiver (WAN network), this is the IP address of the local
gateway.
The IP address of the gateway must also be a valid IP address for the
local subnet.
Default: 000 000 000 000
[007] T-Link Source Port Number
Default: 3060
[008] T-Link Destination Port Number
Default: 3061

Unit Functionality
2.1

Connecting the T-Link to the Panel

The power should be removed from the control panel before any con-
nections are made to the T-Link. Connect the 12V and GND terminals
to the panel's auxiliary power output. Connect the header cable from
the T-Link's white panel connector to the PC-Link header of the control
panel.
The black wire of the PC-Link cable is pin 1 on the Power864 PC5020
v3.2 or higher control panel PC-Link header. The PC-Link header on the
MAXSYS PC4020 v3.31 or higher control panel will only accept the
proper connection.
NOTE: The communication medium between protected property
and communications service provider must be for the exclusive use
of the protected property and not shared with other communica-
tions service provider subscribers.
2.2

Remote Control

The panel and the DLS software will control this function. The module
will be a conduit for the information. Commands can be sent from the
DLS or SA software to allow control of the panel; Arm/Disarm, Bypass/
Un-Bypass, Status Request.
NOTES: New DLS-3 and System administrator drivers are required for
the PC5020 v3.2 and PC4020 v3.31. These drivers can be downloaded
free from dscsec.com/dls3drivers.htm.
DLS-3 and System Administrator cannot communicate directly to the
T-Link module. The T-Link must have The Reporter IP software or the
SG-DRL-IP central station receiver line card to act as a communicator
router to enable DLS or System Administrator communication.
The DLS software could be used with UL Listed installations
only when a service personnel is on the site.
2.3

Programming

Programming must be done via the keypad on the DSC control panel.
T-Link programming cannot be done using DLS software.
2.4

Unique IP Address

Each T-Link on the same network module must have a unique static IP
address. This system is not compatible with any device that masks the
IP address of the originating device. If such devices are present on the
communication path the masking feature must be disabled for the T-
Link modules. Since the MAC address of the unit is unique, this number
can be used to create an exception rule.
