WARNING!
The DLS supports Fire Alarm Verification for use with smoke detectors which can be utilized to
delay the transmission of a smoke alarm to the AT&T Digital Life Central Monitoring Center.
When smoke is detected, the alarm sounds a loud temporal 3 local alarm. Twenty (20)
seconds after the local alarm sounds, the built-in transmitter sends a digitally coded wireless
signal to the DLC. The wireless signal will be repeated every 20 seconds as long as smoke is
still present. In order to reduce the likelihood of reporting false smoke alarms, the Fire Alarm
Verification feature can be used. If the Fire Alarm Verification feature is enabled, the DLC waits
for two smoke detector signals within 25 seconds before a smoke alarm is reported to the AT&T
Digital Life Central Monitoring Center.
In addition to the photoelectric detector, the unit contains an integrated fixed 135° temperature
and rate-of-rise heat sensor that will send an alarm signal based on temperature detected.

Troubleshooting Wireless Devices
DLD can be utilized the by a DLT to assist in troubleshooting issues that may arise
during the installation of a wireless device or devices, such as window/door sensors and
keypads. Within DLD the DLT can enable the monitoring of received wireless signal
strength in the DLC for selected wireless device or devices. The possible values are
presented from highest signal strength to lowest signal strength:
Unacceptable (Too Hot)
Best
Good
Acceptable
Low
Weak
These values apply to both 433MHz and 915MHz devices. In general, if a DLT observes
a Signal Strength of “Low”, the DLT will install a repeater.
As depicted in Figure 20, Figure 21 and Figure 22 under the Devices tab the DLT will
select the Device Information screen for the specific wireless device that they want to
troubleshoot and enable Signal Strength monitoring on the DLC. The DLT can repeat the
steps for other devices.

5 System Installation
During the installation process, initially the DLT determines where to install the DLC
cabinet. The DLT will measure AT&T Cellular Data Service signal strength at various
locations in the home using an application installed on their wireless tablet device. The DLT
will take into consideration AT&T Cellular Data Service strength measurements when
determining where to install the cabinet. An AC power outlet must be in the proximity of the
DLC. After identifying the DLC installation location, the DLT will install the DLC AC-to-AC
Adapter with Integrated HPAV functionality at the planned location.
NOTE: DO NOT connect the DLC Cabinet to an AC power outlet that is controlled by a
switch.
Next, the DLT will go to the location of the customer’s Broadband Home Router (BHR) and
install a HomePlug AV (HPAV) to Ethernet Bridge and establish an Ethernet connection
with the BHR using a Cat5 cable. The DLT will verify that there is a HPAV network
connection between the HPAV to Ethernet Bridge at the customer’s BHR and the DLC ACto-AC Adapter with Integrated HPAV at the planned location of the installation of the DLC

433MHz Products
The 433MHz devices feature one-way communication with the DLC. The 433MHz
devices are:
Smoke Detector
Carbon Monoxide (CO) Detector
Vanishing Door/Window (D/W) Sensor
Recessed D/W (RDW) Sensor
Glass Break Detector
Motion Detector (PIR)
Key Fob
Takeover Module
433MHz Repeater
Temperature/Flood Sensor (Not Evaluated by UL)
Garage Door Tilt Sensor (Not Evaluated by UL)
Approximately once an hour the 433MHz devices automatically transmit supervisory
messages to the DLC. These supervisory messages are also known as heartbeat
messages. These supervisory messages communicate the identity of the device, device
specific information and if the battery level is low. A 433MHz device only sends a
supervisory message if it has not sent any transmissions to the DLC within the last hour.
If the DLC does not receive three consecutive hourly supervisory messages from a
433MHz device, then the device is considered to be offline and an advisory message is
automatically sent to the Central Monitoring Center.
The Takeover Module and 433MHz Repeater always send supervisory messages to the
DLC on an hourly basis independent of previous transmissions to the DLC. The
Takeover Module and 433MHz Repeater normally operate on power from an AC to DC
converter. Both devices are also equipped with batteries that support 24 hour battery

6.2.2 Smoke Detector
The AT&T model number SW-ATT-SMK is a photoelectric smoke alarm with a built-in
transmitter, as shown in Figure 43.
Figure 43: Smoke Detector
WARNING: The DLS supports Fire Alarm Verification for use with smoke detectors which
can be utilized to delay the transmission of a smoke alarm to the AT&T Digital Life Central
Monitoring Center. When smoke is detected, the alarm sounds a loud temporal 3 local
alarm. Twenty (20) seconds after the local alarm sounds, the built-in transmitter sends a
digitally coded wireless signal to the DLC. The wireless signal will be repeated every 20
seconds as long as smoke is still present. In order to reduce the likelihood of reporting false
smoke alarms, the Fire Alarm Verification feature can be used. If the Fire Alarm Verification
feature is enabled, the DLC waits for two smoke detector signals within 25 seconds before
a smoke alarm is reported to the AT&T Digital Life Central Monitoring Center.
In addition to the photoelectric detector, the unit contains an integrated fixed 135°
temperature and rate-of-rise heat sensor that will send an alarm signal based on
temperature detected.

6.2.10 433MHz Repeater
The AT&T module number SW-ATT-RPT4 is an r433MHz Repeater for one-way
433MHz devices, as shown in Figure 72.
Figure 72: 433MHz Repeater
The RPT4 repeater is a peripheral device that communicates with the DLC using a oneway 433MHz transmitter. The RPT4 receives and recognizes messages from other
433MHz devices using a one-way 433MHz receiver and repeats those messages to
extend the range of these devices. The RPT4 repeater has the capacity to learn and retransmit the TX-ID and its status for up to sixteen (16) sensors.
The RPT4 repeater is plugged into an AC power outlet and is equipped with batteries
which support 24 hour battery backup under conditions of local power failure. When the
power source for the RPT4 changes from AC power to battery backup, or from battery
backup to AC power, the RPT4 will automatically send a message to the DLC within two
(2) minutes indicating that the power source has changed. In addition the supervisory
messages that are sent from the RTP4 repeater approximately once an hour indicates
whether the RTP4 repeater is currently operating on AC power or battery backup.
The RPT4 repeater is used to “repeat” signals from 433MHz devices that are unable to
directly communicate with the DLC. Typically the RPT4 repeater will be installed at the
mid-point between the DLC and the 433MHz device(s) that is being repeated. When a
transmission from a 433MHz device is repeated by the RTP4 repeater, the repeater
adds an additional bit to the transmission so that the DLC will be aware that the
transmission is not coming directly from a 433MHz device.
The RTP4 is equipped with a status LED on the front surface of the unit and a Learn
Button that it located on the side of the unit.

occurs:
For unlearned transmitters the transmission is ignored.
For learned transmitters the repeater re-transmits exact TX-ID and
conditions to the central receiver and adds an additional bit which indicates to
the DLC that the transmission has been repeated by a repeater.
NOTE: All Key Fob transmissions are repeated and do not need to be learned into the
repeater.

9 Local Power Failure and Low Battery Warnings
As was noted previously, the DLC Cabinet is equipped with a 24 hour battery backup
capability and will continue to operate under local power failure conditions for 24 hours.
When operating under a local power failure condition, the AC POWER LED on the DLC
Cabinet will be OFF. In addition, the battery system and wireless broadband LEDs will flash
simultaneously.
Under normal operating conditions the Proprietary 915MHz Two-Way devices, including the
Keypad, Siren and Repeater, receive power from AC-to-DC power conversion, but they are
equipped with 24 hour battery backup and will continue to operate for 24 hours under a
local power failure condition. All three devices are equipped with customer replaceable
batteries.
When operating under a local power failure condition, all of the Proprietary 433MHz OneWay sensor/detector devices will continue to operate as designed and are not impacted by
a local power failure condition. Under normal operating conditions the Proprietary 433MHz
Repeater and Takeover Module receive power from AC-to-DC power conversion, but they
are equipped with 24 hour battery backup and will continue to operate for 24 hours under a
local power failure condition. They are equipped with customer replaceable batteries.
When the Digital Life System (DLS) is operating under a local power failure condition or a
device within the DLS has a low battery and the battery needs to be replaced, the
keypad(s) is used to provide a visual and auditory warning that the DLS is operating under
a local power failure condition and/or that a battery within a device(s) needs to be replaced.
Table 3 contains the messages that are presented in the keypad LCD. When the messages
are displayed the keypad starts chirping. As indicated in the table a user can silence the
chirping pressing the # key on the keypad. Once chirping commences, the keypad will chirp
for half (0.5) a second every minute as long as the condition persists. The chirping is
automatically silenced on a daily basis from 9:00 PM local time until 9:00 AM local time. If
an event triggering chirping occurs during the twelve (12) hour silent period, then the
chirping will begin once the silent period has concluded. If a user does not silence chirping
before the silent period begins, then the chirping will continue until the user presses the #
key to silence the chirping.
Table 3 contains local power failure and low battery warnings that may appear on the
keypad LCD in conjunction with keypad chirping.
