User's Manual
2
This equipment GS3060 is fixed and shall be installed by Service Persons only (Service Person is defined as a
person having the appropriate technical training and experience necessary to be aware of hazards to which that
person may be exposed in performing a task and of measures to minimize the risks to that person or other persons).
It shall be installed and used within an environment that provides the pollution degree max 2, over voltages
category II, in non-hazardous, indoor locations only. This manual shall be used with the Installation Manual of the
alarm control panel. All instructions specified within that manual must be observed.
Description
This GS3060 manages transmissions to a central station and can simulate the land line in the event
of trouble (land line down) or even substitute the land line completely in areas where the GSM
service is provided and a land line is not available.
The GS3060 has the capability of communicating alarm signals via the GPRS data network. The capability
enables a fast reliable path to central stations equipped with a Sur-Gard System III or System II receiver.
By connecting a GS3060 to a control panel's standard PSTN interface, telephone based Contact ID
signals are decoded and seamlessly routed through the GPRS network to any of the compatible receiver
options. When configured accordingly, the GS3060, upon line failure, instead of using GPRS, can also
connect the call on the GSM voice channels call based on the panel dialed number.
The performance of the GS3060 depends greatly on GSM network coverage, therefore, it should not
be mounted without first performing placement tests to determine the best location for reception
(minimum one green LED is ON). Optional antenna kits are available.
The GS3060 requires enrollment with CONNECT 24 to operate. Dealer application forms and
additional information on the CONNECT 24 Voice Response Unit (VRU) and web user-interface
can be found at www.connect24.com or at the following telephone numbers:

For UL Residential Fire and Burglary installations, the GS3060 is listed as a primary (sole)
communication means or as a back-up when used in conjunction with a POTS line (dialer).
For UL Commercial Burglary installations, the GS3060 is listed for supplementary (back-up) use in
conjunction with a POTS line (dialer).
The GS3060 shall be powered from any compatible listed control unit or compatible listed power
supply that provides an output voltage within the range of 9-14VDC. The power supply shall be listed
for burglary applications and provide a minimum of 4h standby power capabilities. Example of
suitable listed compatible control unit is DSC Model PC1864 with AUX output rated 11.1 – 12.6VDC.
Example of suitable listed Power Supply is DSC Model PC5404 with AUX output rated 11.6 – 12.6VDC
For ULC Commercial Fire Monitoring installations the GS3060 is listed as a passive communication
system when used in conjunction with a POTS line (dialer). Fire alarms shall be sent simultaneously
over both communication methods (GSM network and PSTN).
For ULC Commercial Burglary installations the GS3060 is listed as a passive communication system
with communication line security level P2 when used in conjunction with a POTS line (dialer).
For ULC Residential Fire and Burglary installations the GS3060 is listed as a primary (sole)
communication means or as a back-up when used in conjunction with a POTS line (dialer).
