Page 43 of 50 ADC-620T Module| Installation Guide Connect AC power. It may take a few moments after power up for the panel to become active. If the panel does not turn on, ensure that the module has been fully connected to the panel via the ribbon cable then perform a full power cycle by following these steps: ADC-620T Module INSTALLATION GUIDE 1. Introduction Disconnect the battery leads and unplug the panel power transformer from AC power. Verify that the module is inserted securely and that the antenna is snapped-in completely. Connect battery leads to the battery. Plug the panel power transformer into the AC outlet. The ADC-620T Module for Neo enables wireless reporting of all alarms and other system events from the DSC Neo control panel using an all-digital, cellular network (if available) or broadband connection (if available). The module can be used as the primary communication path for all alarm signaling, or as a backup to a telephone connection to the central monitoring station. The wireless alarm signaling and routing service is operated by Alarm.com. The ADC-620T Module also features integrated support for Alarm.com’s emPowerTM solution with builtin Z-Wave capabilities. It is important to plug the battery in before plugging in the transformer, otherwise the panel will issue a “System Low Battery” message regardless of the battery voltage level. Contact Information Note that power cycling will clear existing banners. For additional information and support on Alarm.com products and services, please visit www.alarm.com/dealer or contact Alarm.com technical support at 1-866-834-0470. Communications Test (Module Registration) Copyright © 2016 Alarm.com. All rights reserved. Compatibility The ADC-620T Module is compatible with DSC Neo panels with software versions 1.3 and later. Account Creation Before installing an Alarm.com ADC-620T Module in a Neo system, a new customer account needs to be created with Alarm.com. We recommend creating the account at least 24 hours in advance of installation to ensure that the radio is activated prior to installation. To activate an account go to www.alarm.com/dealer and login. Under the “Customers” heading at the top left of the page click on “Create New Customer”. You will need the following customer information to create the account: • Customer Address • Customer Phone Number • Customer E-mail • Preferred login name for the customer • Alarm.com Radio Serial Number At the end of the account creation process you will be able to print a Welcome Letter for the customer that has their login information and temporary password for the Alarm.com website. 2. 3. 4. To initiate module communication with Alarm.com and/or the cellular network the first time, perform a “communications test”. A communications test can also be used at any time to force communication with Alarm.com To perform the communications test on Neo, press and hold [3] for two seconds. The communications test can also be generated by pressing [*][6] followed by the master code and [4], or via the Interactive Services menu. See the Interactive Menus section for information on how to peform the communications test through these menus. The Neo panel will let you know when the communications test has completed by activating the siren output on medium volume for 2 seconds followed by full volume alarm for 2 seconds. If the communications test was initiated via the [3] key or the Interactive Services menu then the siren will not sound. All display lights and LCD pixels turn on. This indicates that Alarm.com has received and acknowledged the signal. This does not guarantee that the signal went through to a central station; it confirms that the Alarm.com Operations Center received the signal. The central station should be contacted directly to verify that the signal was received on the correct account and that the Central Station routing settings have been set up correctly. The signal may not go through to the central station if (a) the Central Station Account settings were entered incorrectly on the Alarm.com Dealer Site or (b) if Alarm.com was unable to send the signal successfully to the Central Station receivers. In these cases the panel will show a “Failure to Communicate” message. Installation Panel Settings Follow these guidelines during installation: Before affixing the panel to a wall, verify the cellular signal level at the installation location. On the Neo panel, press and hold the 5 key for 10 seconds to view the cellular signal level. An installation location with a sustained signal level of two or more bars is recommended. Do not exceed the panel total output power when using panel power for the ADC-620T Module, hardwired sensors, and /or sirens. Refer to the specific panel installation instructions for details. Only one Alarm.com Module can be used per Neo panel. The ADC-620T Module draws on average 100mA during normal operation. In PowerSave Mode, during or immediately following an AC power failure, the module will draw only 5mA on average. Avoid mounting the panel in areas with excessive metal or electrical wiring, such as furnace or utility rooms. Do not install the control panel and module in a basement or other below-ground location. Doing so will negatively impact signal strength. Night Arming The Neo panel has the ability to night arm, which arms the perimeter and restricts movement to designated interior areas. Night arming via the panel should be restricted to one of the five function keys. For more information on Night Arming and how to program the function keys see the installation guide provided with the panel. Central Station and Telephone Line Settings Central Station and telephone line settings will be automatically configured through the CS Forwarding Settings page of the Dealer Site. Note that the system cannot be programmed if it is armed, in alarm, or in installer programming. Before changing any panel settings through AirfX or the Dealer Site, ensure the panel is not in any of these states. following are the panel settings that will be configured via the Dealer Site page and should not be configured in the panel: Section(s) Subsection(s) Option(s) Description Power Up Copyright © 2016 Alarm.com | www.alarm.com | v1.0 ADC-620T Module| Installation Guide 015 -- 300 001 - 002 -- 301 001 - 004 -- 309 001 1-2 309 310 310 002 000 001 - 008 1-2 --- 311 - 318 001 1-2 311 - 318 002 1-2 311 - 318 003 1-2 350 384 001 -- -2 Telephone Line Monitoring Panel/Receiver Communication Paths Phone Number Programming Maintenance Events/Restores Call Directions Test Transmissions Call Directions System Account Code Partition Account Codes Alarm/Restore Partition Call Directions Tampers/Restore Partition Call Directions Openings/Closing Partition Call Directions Communicator Formats Communicator Backup Options 024 -- OFF 041 -- -- 00 377 001 Maintena nce Troubles/ Restores 014 002 AC Failure Communi cation Delay Random value between 001 and 030 377 002 Wireless Zone Low Battery Transmis sion Delay 001 380 -- ON 380 -- OFF 380 -- OFF 382 -- ON 382 -- OFF 377 Zone Attributes Subsections [001] through [128] of section [002] control the attributes for each zone.

These settings should not be altered. They are: Section Subsection Option Value 015 -- OFF 017 -- OFF Description Master Code Not Changeable must be OFF to ensure module communicates the correct master code. Daylights Saving Time must be disabled to ensure panel time is accurate. Realtime Clock must be disabled to ensure panel time is accurate. User Access Codes must be 4-digits. Max number of transmissions should be 14. AC Failure Communication Delay should be set between 001 and 030 to ensure notifications for power failures are received. Wireless Device Low Battery Transmission Delay should be set to 001 to ensure notifications for low batteries are received. Communications must be enabled so the Module can communicate with the panel. System should transmit alarm restores immediately when the zone is restored. System should not attempt to communicate through all available receivers at the same time. Communications must be enabled so the Module can communicate with the panel. AC Failure Transmission Delay should be in minutes. Clock: The ADC-620T Module sets the panel clock when it connects to Alarm.com and then updates it every 18 hours. It is important to select the correct panel time zone on the Alarm.com website, or the panel time will not be accurate. If a system is powered up before the customer account has been created, the time zone will default to Eastern Time. Troubleshooting: Module Status Information Module status information for verifying and troubleshooting module connection status or errors can be found through the Interactive Services menus on Neo. Go to the ‘Interactive Services’ → ‘Module Status’ menu. See Table 1 below for potential module states.
