2G Alarm Communicator Installlation Manual Warning: Installer Please Read Carefully3WARNING: INSTALLER PLEASE READ CAREFULLYNote to InstallersThe Warnings on this page contain vital information. As the only individual incontact with system users, it is the installer’s responsibility to bring each item inthis Warning to the attention of all users of this system.System FailuresThis system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There arecircumstances, however, involving fire, burglary, or other types of emergencieswhere it may not provide protection. Any alarm system of any type may be com-promised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons.Some, but not all, of the reasons may be:Access by IntrudersIntruders may enter through an unprotected access point, circumvent a sensingdevice, evade detection by moving through an area of insufficient coverage, dis-connect a warning device, or interfere with or prevent the proper operation of thesystem.Component FailureAlthough every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible,the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) DevicesSignals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could includemetal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or otherinadvertent radio signal interference.Criminal KnowledgeThis system contains security features which were known to be effective at thetime of manufacture. It is possible for persons with criminal intent to developtechniques which reduce the effectiveness of these features. It is important thatyour security system be reviewed periodically to ensure that its features remaineffective and that it is updated or replaced if it is found that it does not provide theprotection expected.Failure of Replaceable BatteriesThis system’s wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several yearsof battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function ofthe device environment, usage, and type. Ambient conditions such as highhumidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reducethe expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery moni-tor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may failto operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system ingood operating condition.Inadequate InstallationA security system must be installed properly in order to provide adequate protec-tion. Every installation should be evaluated by a security professional to ensurethat all access points and areas are covered. Locks and latches on windows anddoors must be secure and operate as intended. Windows, doors, walls, ceilingsand other building materials must be of sufficient strength and construction toprovide the level of protection expected. A reevaluation must be done during andafter any construction activity. An evaluation by the fire and/or police departmentis highly recommended if this service is available.Inadequate TestingMost problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intendedcan be found by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should betested weekly and immediately after a break-in, an attempted break-in, a fire, astorm, an earthquake, an accident, or any kind of construction activity inside oroutside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads,consoles, alarm indicating devices, and any other operational devices that are partof the system.Insufficient TimeThere may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet theoccupants will not be protected from an emergency due to their inability torespond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is remotely monitored,the response may not occur in time to protect the occupants or their belongings.Motion DetectorsMotion detectors can only detect motion within the designated areas as shown intheir respective installation instructions. They cannot discriminate betweenintruders and intended occupants. Motion detectors do not provide volumetricarea protection. They have multiple beams of detection and motion can only bedetected in unobstructed areas covered by these beams. They cannot detectmotion which occurs behind walls, ceilings, floor, closed doors, glass partitions,glass doors or windows. Any type of tampering whether intentional or uninten-tional such as masking, painting, or spraying of any material on the lenses, mir-rors, windows or any other part of the detection system will impair its properoperation.Passive infrared motion detectors operate by sensing changes in temperature.However their effectiveness can be reduced when the ambient temperature risesnear or above body temperature or if there are intentional or unintentional sourcesof heat in or near the detection area. Some of these heat sources could be heaters,radiators, stoves, barbeques, fireplaces, sunlight, steam vents, lighting and so on.Power FailureControl units, intrusion detectors, smoke detectors and many other securitydevices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If a device oper-ates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries havenot failed, they must be charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If adevice operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will renderthat device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of anylength are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage elec-tronic equipment such as a security system. After a power interruption hasoccurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the systemoperates as intended.Security and InsuranceRegardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property orlife insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, rent-ers, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effectsof an emergency situation.Smoke DetectorsSmoke detectors that are a part of this system may not properly alert occupants ofa fire for a number of reasons, some of which follow. The smoke detectors mayhave been improperly installed or positioned. Smoke may not be able to reach thesmoke detectors, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on theother side of closed doors. Smoke detectors may not detect smoke from fires onanother level of the residence or building.Every fire is different in the amount of smoke produced and the rate of burning.Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectorsmay not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazardssuch as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage offlammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing withmatches, or arson.Even if the smoke detector operates as intended, there may be circumstanceswhen there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time toavoid injury or death.Telephone LinesIf telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busyfor certain periods of time. Also an intruder may cut the telephone line or defeatits operation by more sophisticated means which may be difficult to detect.Warning Devices Warning devices such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people orwaken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If warningdevices are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is lesslikely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible warning devicesmay be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions,air conditioners, other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible warning devices,however loud, may not be heard by a hearing-impaired person.29008218R001_NOVA_TL255GS_GS2055_V.2.5X_IM_ENG_NA_UL_ULC_FCC_IC_dft_03

2G Alarm Communicator Installlation Manual SMS Command and Control Functions97. Panel Section [401]: Toggle Option [1] must be set to ON in order to perform panel DLS session through Cellular or Ethernet datachannel.NOTE: Keep a record of the SIM card telephone number, it is required by users for SMS Command and Control functions. (The num-ber can be recorded in the Programming Worksheets Section of this document, under Option [996]) Due to the nature of the SIM card activation process with Cellular network carriers, it can take up to 24 hours for SIM card activation to be complete.SMS COMMAND AND CONTROL FUNCTIONSSMS Command and Control is available on SCW9055/57 panels. Users can send SMS text messages from their mobile phone to theGSM phone number assigned to their system. Commands are only accepted from telephone numbers that have been programmed inSections [311]-[318]. The system will reject messages sent from telephone numbers that are not on the programmed list.When the received SMS text matches a valid Section message, the function is performed on the control panel. Text messages are notcase sensitive and extra spaces are ignored. A User Access Code may be required for some SMS messages.The User can send just the partition number or the complete label.(e.g., “Away arm Partition 2 1234” is treated the same as“away arm 2 1234 ”).The SMS Message format is in 3 parts: Command, Partition Label (or only the partition number), and Access Code.If an Access Code is included in the message, it is sent to the control panel for validation, along with the requested function.If the panel is configured to require an Access Code and the code is not sent (or invalid) the panel will fail the function (unsuccessful).If the panel fails the function, an SMS response message is sent to the user. The SMS response will echo the command sensat, followedby the label “unsuccessful”. (e.g., “night arm partition 2 1234 unsuccessful”).The partition label or partition number may be excluded from the SMS request in a single partition system (e.g., disarm 9123).NOTE: The GSM phone number can be viewed in Section [851],[996], and/or [851],[229] or by User entering *6, then scrolling down to “SMS Programming” and scrolling down to “Cellular phone No”.LABEL PROGRAMMING for SMS MESSAGEProgrammable Labels can not be modified in Connect24, use DLS IV for label programming only, if labels need to be modified. Beforeinitiating 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 Cellular 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 serverin an SMS message.3. Type the SMS message text into your cell phone and send it to the Communicator’s Cellular telephone number. Click OK.NOTE: The Cellular phone number can be read from Communicator Section [851][996] and/OR [851][229].4. SMS message will establish a connection to your computer’s DLS IV software (to change programming labels only).5. Create an account for the panel/Communicator, select the Communicator type (e.g., SMS - TL255GS) and enter all relevant infor-mation in SMS section.NOTE: The Cellular telephone number will also be required by the user, to send SMS Interactive messages to their system.6.
