5.3.3 Disconnect Telguard from RJ-31x
Jack
Disconnect the Plug from J6 (Gray Connector) of the Telguard that goes to the RJ-31x Jack at the
premise.
5.3.4 Verify Alarm Signal Transmissions over Cellular
Trip several alarms on the C/C and verify that the central station received them by calling the central
station operator. Use a lineman's buttset in MONITOR MODE and connected to Telguard's "T" and "R"
test pins to "listen" to communications between the C/C and Telguard. The ACK LED will come on solid
while waiting for an acknowledgement.
If you are having problems getting reliable alarm signal transmissions, additional adjustments may be
necessary.
♦ Recheck signal strength. You need RSSI = 2½ (TWO LEDS ON SOLID AND THE THIRD LED
FLASHING) for adequate signal strength. Also, check antenna connector and make sure it is seated
correctly.
♦ Call Telular Technical Service, 1-800-229-2326 extension 9, and request the Communication
Center operator to check the Telguard programming configuration for proper operation and proper
communications format.
5.4 STEP 4: CONNECT SUPERVISORY TRIP OUTPUTS
Connect and test the supervisory trip outputs to the C/C.
NOTE: Activation of a local alarm or strobe light may be desirable when a trip is declared. The STC trip output
can be used directly to activate a local signaling device, provided that the trip output is not needed to trip the host
control/communicator at the same time. If both a local signal and a control trip input is required, then external
relays are needed to provide additional uncommitted contacts.
UL Listed installation of the TG-7 will at a minimum have the trip output (STC2) to the host C/C to indicate low
A/C (ACFC) and low battery (LBC) conditions.
5.4.1 Decide on a STC Trip Output Strategy
The Telguard provides the host C/C with two supervisory trip outputs for reporting a Telguard system
trouble code to the central station. The supervisory trip outputs are programmable via a touch-tone
telephone or buttset to suit various installation requirements. The programming options for these
supervisory trip outputs can be any combination of the following:
a. Always Off: Disables all relay supervisory functions.
b. ACFC: Trips 2-hours after loss of AC power. Restores 60 seconds after AC power is restored.
c. LBC: Trips within 60 seconds on low battery condition. Restores when battery voltage ≥ 12.1 vdc.
d. LFC: Trips 30/60-sec. on Telco line fault condition. Restores 30/60 seconds after Telco line restores.
e. NSC: Trips 30/60-sec. on no service condition due to loss of RF signal strength. Restores 30/60
seconds after RF signal strength is available.
f. RFC: Trips on radio failure to communicate with the Telular Communication Center
5.4.2 Check Telguard Supervisory Trip to C/C
After you have connected the STC trip outputs, check to be sure that they operate correctly.
5.4.2.1 Reprogram C/C to Send Proper Code
Reprogram C/C, if necessary, to send proper alarm code when tripped by the Telguard’s supervisory
output. Program zone restoral as desired.
