LABEL PROGRAMMING for SMS MESSAGES
Programmable Labels can not be modified in Connect24, use DLS IV for label programming only, if labels need to be modified. Before
initiating remote programming, record your network’s Public IP Address and port for incoming DLS IV connections.
1. Run the DLS IV software on your computer. DLS IV will connect to the unit, using the Public IP address, and make an Ethernet con-
nection. If the Ethernet connection fails, DLS IV will report an error and prompt you to connect using Cellular.
NOTE: If required, download the DLS IV software from DSC: http://www.dsc.com/index.php?n=library#self. If you select the Cel-
lular connection, DLS will request Connect24 to send an outgoing SMS message to the unit.
2. Connect24 will confirm that the account has DLS service and will provide the Public IP address and port number of the DLS server
in an SMS message.Type the SMS message text into your cell phone and send it to the Communicator’s 3G telephone number. Click
OK.
NOTE: The 3G phone number can be read from Communicator Section [851][996].
3. SMS message will establish a connection to your computer’s DLS IV software (to change programming labels only).
4. Create an account for the panel/Communicator, select the Communicator type (e.g., SMS - TL2553G-SM) and enter all relevant
information in SMS section.
NOTE: The 3G telephone number will also be required by the user, to send SMS Interactive messages to their system.
5. Program the account information, then click Global Download and choose SMS as the Connection Type. Click OK.
6. The download path configured in Programming Section [005] Toggle Option[4] determines the Cellular or Ethernet path to be used.
The Programming Sections described in this document can be viewed through the panel Section for Ethernet/Cellular Programming.
Enter: [*][8][installer code] [851][###], Where # # # is the 3 digit Section number referenced in this section. The Programming
Worksheets at the end of this document can be used to record the new values when programming changes have been made from the
default values.
Programming Sections are accessed through Connect24. Installers may review/record programming Options at the panel.
NOTE: Ethernet/Cellular Programming Sections accessed through the panel are for display purposes only. Configuration changes
must be done using Connect24.
SYSTEM OPTIONS
[001] Ethernet IP Address
Default (000.000.000.000); (TL255-SM/TL2553G-SM only)
Enter the IP address of the dual Communicator. Ensure that the IP address is unique to your Communicator on the local network. For-
mat is 4 fields, each field is a 3 digit decimal number. Valid range: 000-255. If an IP address is programmed in this Section, the unit will
operate with Static IP (DHCP disabled). Sections [002] and [003] must also be programmed when using Static IP addresses.
NOTE: Default for this Section is Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) enabled. When enabled, the DHCP Server will set
values for: IP Address [001], Subnet Mask [002], and Gateway [003]. Programming an IP address in this Section will disable
DHCP (Static IP ).
[002] Ethernet IP Subnet Mask
Default (255.255.255.000); (TL255-SM/TL2553G-SM only)
Enter the Ethernet IP Subnet Mask of the dual Communicator. Format is 4 fields, each field is a 3 digit decimal number. Valid range:
000-255.
NOTE: If DHCP is enabled, the DHCP Server will assign the subnet mask for this Section and the programmed value will be ignored.
[003] Ethernet Gateway IP Address
Default (000.000.000.000); (TL255-SM/TL2553G-SM only)
Enter the Ethernet Gateway IP address of the dual Communicator. The gateway IP address is required when a router is used on the local
network to reach the destination IP address specified in Section [001]. Format is 4 fields, each field is a 3 digit decimal number. Valid
range: 000-255.
NOTE: If DHCP is enabled, the DHCP Server will assign the Gateway IP address for this Section and the programmed value will be
ignored.
[004] Receiver Supervision Interval
Default (0087/135);
When receiver supervision is enabled (ON) in Section [005] Toggle Option [3], the unit sends heartbeats to Ethernet Receiver 1 or Cel-
lular Receiver 1 to test the communication path. Use this Section to set the interval time (in seconds) when heartbeats will be sent. Valid
range 000A-FFFF seconds. If the programmed value is less than (000A/10) seconds, supervision is disabled.
