Pre Installation Configuration

Encryption
The communicator uses 128 Bit AES encryption. Encryption can only be enabled from the monitoring station receiver. Each receiver (Ethernet 1 and 2) can independentlyhave encryption enabled or disabled. When encryption is enabled, the central station will configure the device to encrypt communicationsthe next time the communicator module performs a communication to that receiver. NOTE: Packets will start being encrypted only after the nextevent issent to that receiver, or ifthe unit is restarted.

This Ethernet communicator shall be installed byservice persons only(service person is defined asa person having the appro­priate technical training and experience necessary to be aware of hazards to which that person may be exposed to in per­forming a task and can also take measures to minimize the risks to that person or other persons). The Communicator shall be installed and used within an environmentthat providesthe pollution degree max2, overvoltages category II,in non-hazardous, indoor locations only. This manual shall be used with the installation manual of the panel which is connected to the com­municator.All instructions specified within the panel manual must be observed. All the local rules imposed by local electrical codesshall be observed and respected during installation.
Installing the Ethernet Cable
A Category5 (CAT 5) Ethernet cable must be run from a source with Internet connectivity to the communicator module, inside the panel. The communicator end of the cable mustbe terminated with an RJ45 plug, which will connectto the communicator’s RJ45 jack after the communicator isinstalled. All requirementsfor installation ofCAT5 Ethernet cable mustbe observed for cor­rect operation ofthe communicator, including, but not limited to,the following:
l Do NOT strip offcable sheathing more than required for proper termination. l Do NOT kink/knot cable. l Do NOT crush cable with cable ties. l Do NOT untwistCAT5 pairsmore than ½in. (1.2cm). l Do NOT splice cable. l Do NOT bend cable atright angles or make anyother sharp bends.
NOTE: CAT5 specification requires that any cable bend must have a minimum 2 in. (5 cm) bend radius. Maximum length of
CAT 5 cable is 328 ft.(100 m).
Running the RS-232 Cable (R models only)
When installing the communicator for use with 3rd party applications an RS-232 cable must be connected between the 3rd party device and the communicator module. NOTE: Maximum cable length for RS-232 cable is 8 ft.(2.4 m). Please refer to the installation manual for the 3rd party device for wiring instructions.

Figure 2: HS2016/2032/2064/2128 Control Panel
WARNING! - Modules are power limited. Do not route any wiring over the circuit board. Maintain at least 1in. (25.4mm) separation between circuit board and wiring. A minimum of ¼ in. (7mm) separation must be maintained at all points between non-power limited wiring and power limited wiring.
3.
To electrically connect the communicator to the panel, performthe following steps(See Figure 3).
a. Disconnect both AC power and battery connections from the panel, and disconnect telephone line.
Figure 3: Communicator Wiring Diagram
4. Install the RS-232 connections (Rmodels only).Ifusing the communicator with a 3rd party device, wire the connections
as per the table below.Maximum cable length for RS-232 cable is 8 ft.(2.4 m).

Install Network Cable
1. Route the CAT5 Ethernet cable through backof the panel and plug it into the communicator’s RJ45 jack.
2. Perform the following stepsfor initial power on of the panel with communicator installed: a. Reconnectthe AC power, telephone line, and battery+ connector to the panel.
(The communicator and panel will power up together).
b. Observe that the communicator’s red and yellow LEDsare flashing together while itinitializes.The red and yellow
LEDs will continue to flash until the communicator has successfully communicated to all programmed receivers. If this is the first time the communicator hasbeen powered up, the module will not be able to initiate communication untilit has been programmed.
NOTE: Initialization maytake several minutes to complete. Red and yellow LEDswill flash together during initialization. Do not
continue to nextstep until the red and yellow LEDs have stopped flashing. (If onlythe yellowLED is flashing, there is a communicator trouble). Correct trouble indicated by flashes on yellow LED before continuing. (for troubleshooting assistance see Table 6 ).
3. Mount the panel in location.

Communicator Troubles displayed on a HS2016/2032/2064/2128
The communication trouble is the only trouble thatwill appear on the keypad Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) when encountered by a communicator installed in a HS2016/2032/2064/2128. For more information about the trouble on the communicator mod­ule refer to the panel eventbuffer or by accessing *2 to viewthe individual trouble types.Log entrywill showFault or Restore for each ofthe following events:
l Alt comm SIM lockTrouble/Restore l Alt. comm Cellular Trouble/Restore l Alt. comm Ethernet Trouble/Restore l Alt. comm Fault/Restore l Alt comm Receiver (1-4) Absent/Restore l Alt comm Receiver (1-4) Supervision Trouble/Restore l Alt comm Receiver (1-4) FTC Trouble/Restore
NOTE: When Panel displays“Alternate Fault”, communicator programming is not accessible via the keypad.

Communicator Status LEDs

The communicator has 2 on-board LED indicators:a yellow trouble LED and ared network connection statusLED.
Yellow Trouble LED
This yellow LED will flash to indicate a trouble on the unit. The number of flashes indicates the type of trouble. See the table below for the coded flashes and the conditionswhich will activate the trouble statusLED.

NOTE: Only the highestpriority trouble (2 flashes is the highest priority trouble) is indicated. When this trouble isrestored, the
next highest trouble will indicate, if present. This will continue until all troubles have been cleared (yellow LED is not flashing).
The following paragraphs describe the conditions associated with the trouble indicated:
Panel Supervision Trouble (2 Flashes)
This trouble will be indicated when communication between the communicator module and the panel fails. Ifthe module can not communicatewith the panel (e.g., loss of power to the panel) the communicator will send the ‘Panel Absent Trouble Event’ message to the central station receiver. When communication returns, a ‘Panel Absent Restore Event’ is sent by the com­municator to the central station receiver. The reporting codes are ET0001 for trouble and ER0001 for restore. The panel absent event always uses the primary receiver account code when communicating to the central station. NOTE: The panel supervision trouble/restore are internally generated events bythe communicator. Trouble is generated if the
communicator misses6 polls. Trouble is restored on receipt of first poll from the panel.
