User's Manual

l Receiver Window: This is the supervision timeout that must be configured at the central station
receiver.
l Recommended Values: This is the recommended heartbeat interval that should be programmed
into the communicator.
[005] System Toggle Options
[1] Ethernet Receiver 1 Supervised (TL2803G(R)E only) Default (OFF)
ON: Ethernet receiver 1 will be supervised and heartbeats will be sent to Ethernet receiver 1 based
on the supervision interval programmed in section [004].
OFF: Ethernet receiver 1 will not be supervised. When disabled, heartbeat 1 is sent to the Ethernet
receiver once every hour, regardless of supervision type (heartbeat 1 or 2). The heartbeat is resent
every 5 seconds until ACK is received. If no event or heartbeat ACK is received after (receiver super-
vision interval + 75 seconds), supervisory trouble is indicated.
NOTE: Ethernet receiver 2 can not be supervised.
[2] Cellular Receiver 1 Supervised Default (OFF)
ON: Cellular receiver 1 will be supervised and heartbeats will be sent to cellular receiver 1 based on
the supervision interval programmed in section [004]. If ACK to heartbeat is not received, it is retrans-
mitted every 5 seconds. Failure to ACK two consecutive heartbeats will reset the radio.
OFF: Cellular receiver 1 willnot be supervised. When disabled, heartbeat is not sent to the receiver.
Supervisory trouble is indicated.
NOTE: Cellular receiver 2 can not be supervised.
[3] Supervision Type Default (OFF)
ON: Heartbeat 1 (commercial supervision). This supervision type is suitable for applications where
swap detection is required on the supervisory packet.
OFF: Heartbeat 2 (residential supervision). This supervision type is suitable for applications where
supervision of the communication path to the receiver is required (no swap detection).
NOTE: Commercial supervision is more data intensive than residential supervision and should only be
used when required to meet the approval for the installation.
[4] Primary Path Default (OFF) - TL2803G(R)E; (ON) - 3G2080(R)E
ON: Cellular channel is the primary path. Ethernet channel is the secondary path, if it exists.
OFF: Ethernet channel is the primary path in a dual communicator. Cellular channel is the secondary
path.
[5] Redundant Communications Default (OFF)
ON: Events will be communicated to Ethernet receiver 1 and cellular receiver 1 at the same time.
Events will be communicated to Ethernet receiver 2 and cellular receiver 2 at the same time. As long
as the event is successfully communicated to one of the two paths (Ethernet or cellular), the com-
municator will move on to the next event.
NOTE: Do not configure Ethernet receiver 1 and cellular receiver 1 to communicate using a common
receiver configuration (i.e., identical receiver IP address and receiver remote port).
OFF: Events will be communicated to the receivers individually. Toggle should be OFF when guar-
anteed message delivery to both receivers is required.
[6] Remote Firmware Upgrade Default (ON)
ON: The communicator module firmware can be remotely upgraded using the Ethernet/cellular
paths.
OFF: The communicator module firmware can not be remotely upgraded. Local firmware upgrade is
still possible.
[7] Alternate Test Transmissions Default (OFF).
ON: When the periodic test transmission interval occurs, the test transmission will alternate between
being sent to the primary and secondary receivers with each test transmission interval.
OFF: When the periodic test transmission interval occurs, the test transmission will be sent to the pro-
grammed receivers, based on the settings of the periodic test transmission reporting codes.
[8] Cellular Low Signal Trouble. Default (OFF)
This option masks the low signal trouble from generating cellular trouble.
ON: A cellular trouble event is generated when the radio signal level falls below threshold level (aver-
age CSQ level is 4 or less).
OFF: A cellular trouble event is not generated when the radio signal level falls below threshold level
(average CSQ level is 4 or less).
[006] System Toggle Options 2
[1] Ethernet 1 receiver enabled. Default (ON) OFF for 3G2080(R)E.
ON: Ethernet receiver 1 is enabled.
OFF: Ethernet receiver 1 is disabled.
[2] Ethernet receiver 2 is enabled. Default (ON) OFF for 3G2080(R)E.
ON: Ethernet receiver 2 is enabled.
