General Information
System Overview
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of Honeywell's GSMHS High Security Digital Cellular
Communicator (henceforth referred to as GSMHS). It represents the latest and most
innovative communication technology for the security industry and uses the most
sophisticated encryption to ensure the highest level of security for your customer.
In addition to alarm reporting, the GSMHS provides upload/downloading capability of
Honeywell's control panel data over the Internet (via the AlarmNet-i network), using GSM
(Global System for Mobile) technology.
The GSMHS module requires an AlarmNet–i account. For new installations, please obtain the account
information from the central station prior to programming this module. For replacement installations,
the AlarmNet-i account is created automatically when the module is registered (based on the
existing account).
General Information
Honeywell's GSMHS Cellular Communicator transmits signals to the AlarmNet-i network
(GSM cellular network, which uses GPRS to complete these transmissions) and forwards
them to your central station.
System Features
Basic features of the GSMHS include:
 Quick connection to compatible Honeywell series control panels
 Simple programming using a 7720P programming tool
 Reports fire, burg, and status messages via wireless network
 Allows uploading and downloading of control panel data via the wireless network
Modes of Operation
The GSMHS provides four modes of operation so it can be used with various types of control
panels, as summarized below.
UL
ECP Mode
 This mode is for use with Honeywell controls that support LRR-ECP communication
 The module connects to the control’s keypad terminals and provides 2-way communication
with the control using ECP messaging
 The control treats the module as a Long Range Radio (LRR) device, so program the control
accordingly, including setting the module’s proper LRR device address
 Reports are sent in Contact ID format
 The module also supports two hardwire zone trigger inputs (zones 6 and 7)
For UL installations, all signals must be transmitted via the GSMHS and the control panel
DACT. Closing ringback shall be provided via DACT.
1-1
Page 6
GSMHS Installation and Setup Guide
Zone Trigger Mode
 This mode is for use with controls that do not support LRR-ECP communication nor 4204
Relay Modules
 The module provides six input zones. UL: Only zones 3-6 can be used for UL installations.
 Each zone can be configured for +V, -V, or EOLR triggering
 Each zone can be programmed for inverted operation, delayed reporting, and restoral
reporting. UL: Only inverted V+, V– modes can be used for UL installations; EOLR must
be non-inverted.
 Reports are sent in ADEMCO High-Speed format
4204 Mode and Two-4204 Mode
 This mode is for use with Honeywell controls that do not support LRR-ECP
communication, but do support 4204 Relay Modules
 The module connects to the control’s keypad terminals
 The control treats the module as a 4204 Relay Module(s), so program the control
accordingly, including setting the module’s proper 4204 device address
 4204 mode provides up to four zone inputs, plus two optional trigger zones, depending on
options programmed
 Two-4204 mode provides up to eight zone inputs, depending on options programmed
(Two-4204 mode not intended for UL installations.)
 Each 4204 zone can be programmed for delayed reporting and restoral reporting
 Reports are sent in ADEMCO High-Speed format
Module Supervision Features
The GSMHS provides the following types of supervision and module fault detection:
 Network communication failure
messages from the device within 200 seconds, AlarmNet will notify the central station of a
communication failure.
 Communication path failure
failure, the control panel can be notified of a trouble condition with the module after a
specified time has elapsed (“GSM Flt Time” option, 00-99 minutes).
 Fault output
 If used, the fault relay will trip when the following conditions occur: tamper*, power loss*,
low battery*, battery charger fault*, loss of network connectivity*, the device is not
registered and the device is remotely disabled by AlarmNet.
: Terminal 11 can serve as a fail-safe trigger for module fault conditions.
* Alarm reporting for the noted condition must be enabled for it to trigger the fault relay.
 Primary power loss and low battery conditions (“Pwr Loss Rpt,” “Low Bat Rpt” options).
 Cover tamper condition (“Tamper Rpt” option).
Antenna
The GSMHS comes equipped with an internal antenna. This feature provides additional
security to the installation by making the device tamper resistant.
AMPS antennas, such as the 7825-OC antenna, cannot be used with this product.
: In the event the AlarmNet network does not hear any
: In the event the module detects a communication path

For ECP and 4204 modes, the line fault monitor should be connected to a control panel zone.
Wiring for ECP, 4204 and Two-4204 Modes
Most Honeywell ADEMCO control panels support LRR-ECP data communication, (e.g.,
VISTA-10P, VISTA-15P, VISTA-20P, VISTA-128BP and VISTA-128FBP). However, there
are some panels that do not. Check the Installation and Setup Guide for the control panel
you are using to see if it supports ECP communication.
Connect the GSMHS to a compatible Honeywell VISTA control panel's ECP terminals, in
parallel with keypads and other peripheral devices such as RF receiver, VIP module, etc.
Wire length/gauge limitations are the same for the module as they are for keypads and other
peripheral devices. To wire the module for ECP or 4204 modes, see Figure 2-2 and make the
following connections:

Wiring for Zone Trigger Mode
To trip a zone on the GSMHS in V+ trigger mode, the positive triggering voltage from the
control panel must be within 6V-12V. UL Installations: Use inverted mode.
Trigger levels above this range may cause permanent damage to the unit.
Trigger levels below this range result in unreliable operation.
To trip a zone on the GSMHS in V- trigger mode, the negative triggering voltage must be less
than 1.0V.
Connect a wire from the triggering source (bell output, voltage trigger, etc.) of the control
panel to the zone input of the module, and connect a common ground between the module
and control panel. NOTE: This mode has not been evaluated by UL.

GSMHS Installation and Setup Guide
Backup Battery Connection
The included battery (K14139) is used for backup in the event of a system power loss.
 The battery can provide over 24 hours of system life in the event of a power failure.
 A programmable power loss message can alert the AlarmNet Control Center when system
power is lost (power loss messages are reported within 1-3 hours of actual loss).
 The module transmits a low-battery message (programmable) when the battery reaches
5.7V ±5%, indicating subsequent messages may not be transmitted.
 The system shuts down when the battery reaches 5.1V, and radio transmissions are no
longer possible.
 If system power is restored before the module shuts down, a power restore message is sent
within 1-3 hours after power is restored, and the battery is recharged using the GSMHS’s
built-in battery charger. If system power is restored after the GSMHS has shut down, a
power-on reset condition exists, the module initializes itself and the battery will recharge.
Install the battery as follows, and refer to the Summary of Connections diagram at the end of
this document.
1. Place the battery inside the case back.
2. Snap the right side of the battery clip onto the inside of the case back and secure the
left side with the screw provided.
Do not plug the battery in until after you have powered-up the GSMHS.
Initial Power-Up Sequence
Before connecting power, check that the following have been completed:
 If using ECP, 4204 or 2-4204 Mode, terminal block TB1 V+ and GND terminals are
connected to the control panel’s auxiliary power output: 12VDC nominal.
 Plug in the transformer.
 Connect the red and black battery cables to the battery terminals. Connect battery cable
to connector J1.
 Power up the control panel.
 Initially, all GSMHS programming options are set to the factory default settings.

Important Information Regarding Zone Input Options
ECP mode supports two optional hardwire zone input triggers by making connections to the module’s zone 6 and/or
zone 7 terminals and programming the appropriate zone trigger options below.
Each zone input can be programmed to cause an alarm under one of the following conditions:
 (V+), where a positive voltage causes an alarm for normally low connections (voltage trigger, NO, NC)
 (V–), where a ground trigger causes an alarm for normally high connections (open collector, NO, NC)
 (EOLR) End of Line Resistor, where the input is supervised by a 2K EOL resistor. The zone can be triggered
by open collector, voltage trigger, NO, NC.
UL
In addition to the above, zones can be programmed for an Inverted Trigger, where the alarm and
normal states of the zones are inverted; this can serve a fail-safe supervisory purpose for certain
installations.
These zone inputs can also be programmed for restore reporting, and for delayed reporting, which allows time for
the user to abort false alarms.

ECP Status Codes
When the GSMHS is configured for ECP mode, it sends status messages to the control panels
for battery, power, tamper, and network connectivity failures. Some of the control panels,
(e.g., VISTA-10P, VISTA-15P and VISTA-20P Series) display these on the keypad as
“LngRng Radio” followed by a 4-digit code (listed below). In addition, the Contact ID codes
(listed in Appendix B) for these conditions are sent to the central station by the module.
Table 2-3. Common ECP Keypad Display Status Codes
STATUS CODE DESCRIPTION
0000 Control panel lost communication with GSMHS.
0880 GSMHS tamper detected (cover removed).
0005 GSMHS has lost contact with AlarmNet-i network.

Alternative Mode Programming (Zone Trigger, 4204 and Two-4204)
Zone Trigger Mode
There are six input zones available on the GSMHS. Each zone is selectable for +V, -V, or
EOLR trigger. The first zone input can detect both pulsed and steady signals if connected to
a bell output.
When using Zone Trigger mode, messages are sent in ADEMCO High-Speed format.
Zones 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 are voltage trigger inputs located on TB1 pins 6-10.
Refer to Table 2-4 for Zone Trigger Mode programming and follow the prompts that pertain
to Zone Trigger Mode.
4204 Emulation Mode
In 4204 Emulation Mode, the GSMHS communicates with a compatible Honeywell VISTA
series or First Alert control panel as though it were a 4204 Relay Module. If two 4204s are
enabled in the module, it acts as two 4204s at consecutive device addresses. The control
panel must be configured to recognize one or two 4204 relay modules accordingly. On
VISTA-32FB (or higher) control panels and First Alert equivalents, addresses 6 and 13
should not be used when the secondary 4204 is enabled. Messages are sent in ADEMCO
High-Speed format.
NOTE: See your control panel Installation and Setup Guide for the number of 4204 modules
supported.
3-8
Page 23
4204 Emulation Mode Options
For control panels that do not support LRR-ECP communication, the 4204 Emulation modes
provide a means of sending up to eight unique reports based on defined system conditions.
In 4204 mode, the GSMHS functions as a logical 4204 Relay Module, where each relay
number, referred to in the module as zone number, can be programmed to send a report
based on the output function programmed in the control for that relay. Each relay-zone can
also be programmed to send a restore message of the reported condition, can be set to delay
transmission of messages, and can be programmed to send reports only when a conditional
zone is triggered (armed), (see Zone Input Options later in this section).
In single 4204 mode, the GSMHS supports up to four relay-zones. In Two-4204 mode, the
GSMHS functions as two 4204 modules, supporting up to eight relay-zones.
4204 Relay Outputs map to GSMHS zones as follows:
First 4204 Zones
(device address entered in Prompt 14):
Relay 1 = Zone 1
Relay 2 = Zone 2
Relay 3 = Zone 3
Relay 4 = Zone 4 or conditional zone trigger if
“report only if armed” is selected in any zone 1-3
when using single 4204 mode.
NOTE: Zone 4 status is not reported when being
used as the conditional (arming) trigger zone.
When using the GSMHS in 4204 Emulation Mode, DO NOT enable the Long-Range Radio
module in control panel programming. Instead, enable the module device address(es) and
program the appropriate relay activation functions for the relay-zones being used. In some
control panels, it is called “relay programming” and in others it is called “output device
programming.” It is recommended that “close and stay closed” (usually choice 2) action is
selected. Selection of momentary activation will cause the GSMHS to generate an alarm and
NOT a restore, even if the GSMHS is programmed to send a restore for the given zone.
In 4204 mode, messages are reported in ADEMCO High-Speed format. Zone alarms
(status 7) are reported with “1” (alarm) or “3” (restore) displayed in the zone position for the
respective zone (e.g. alarm on zone 2: 5155 5555 7; restore 5355 5555 7). A supervision fault
trouble message is automatically sent if the module detects no activity on its connection to
the control. The message is: 5555 5515 5; restore message is: 5555 5535 5.
Refer to Table 2-4 for 4204 Emulation Mode programming and follow the prompts that
pertain to 4204 or Two-4204 mode. Check marks (

Important Information Regarding Zone Input Options
If desired, 4204 mode supports two optional hardwire zone input triggers by making connections to the module’s
zone 6 and/or zone 7 terminals and programming the appropriate zone trigger options below.
NOTE: These triggers are not available when using 2-4204 mode.
Zone Trigger Mode provides six hardwire zone input triggers by making connections to the module’s zone
terminals and programming the appropriate zone trigger options below. Zones are numbered 1-7, with zone 2
serving as a reporting zone only (see Bell Output Zone below).
Bell Output Zone 1 (and 2): The zone 1 terminal can detect both pulsed and steady signals. If connecting the bell
output to the GSMHS zone causes a bell fault on the control panel, enable the "Trip Inputs 1or2" option. The
GSMHS reports an alarm on zone 1 (fire) when it detects a pulsed signal and an alarm on zone 2 (burglary) when it
detects a steady signal.
Telco Zone and Open/Close Zone: Dedicated zones can be assigned as the Telco fault zone and/or an open/close
(arm/disarm) reporting zone. When triggered, these zones report a Telco line fault or open/close report respectively,
in ADEMCO High-Speed format. Connect the appropriate trigger from the control to the selected zone input for
each of these options.

 (V–), where a ground trigger causes an alarm for normally high connections (open collector, NO, NC)
 (EOLR) End of Line Resistor, where the input is supervised by a 2K EOL resistor. The zone can be triggered
by open collector, voltage trigger, NO, NC.
Inverted Trigger: Zones can be programmed for inverted trigger, where the alarm and normal states of the zones
are inverted; this can serve a fail-safe supervisory purpose for certain installations.
Restore and Delayed Reports: Zone inputs can be programmed for restore reporting, and for delayed reporting
(allowing time for the user to abort false alarms).
UL: Zone restoral must be enabled.
Report Only if Armed option: To help eliminate redundant reports, zone alarms can be restricted to report only if
a conditional zone is triggered (armed). If this feature is desired, the conditional zone is automatically used as the
“arming” zone. Connect the appropriate control panel trigger to the conditional (arming) zone. The trigger must be
programmed as necessary in the control panel.
The conditional (arming) zone on the module is a different dedicated zone for each programming mode, as follows:
Mode Conditional (Arming) Zone
Zone Trigger 7
4204 4

Registering the GSMHS
Once you have initialized and programmed the GSMHS, it must be registered to enable the
account. An unregistered GSMHS is indicated on the Status Display as: Status lit, Message
slow blinking, and Fault not lit.

Figure 4-2. LED Key
Upon completion of the registration process, a GSMHS transmits a registration message and
receives a registration validation indicating that the account is now enabled. Wait for the
"Registration Success" message to appear, regardless of the registration method used.
You can register the GSMHS by one of the following methods:
 Through the AlarmNet Direct website
 Through use of the Tamper Switch
 Through use of a 7720P Programming Tool
 By phone
Registering through AlarmNet Direct Website
The GSMHS can be registered through the AlarmNet Direct Website. To program the
module via the website (if you are already signed up for this service), go to:
If you are not signed up for this service, click on “Dealer Signup” from the login screen to
gain access to the Honeywell web-based programming.
Dealer Sign-Up Direct Link: https://services.alarmnet.com/AlarmNetDirectP_Sign-Up
You will be instructed how to proceed upon completing the sign-up form. Only one sign-up
per dealer is required. Once an initial user is established, additional logins may be created
by that user.
NOTE: Central Stations sign up by contacting AlarmNet Administration at 800-222-6525
option 3.
Please have the following information available when programming the device:
1. Primary City ID (two-digit number)
.
.
4-1
Page 34
GSMHS Installation and Setup Guide
2. Primary Central Station ID (two-digit hexadecimal number)
3. Primary Subscriber ID (four-digit number)
4. MAC ID and MAC CRC number (located on outside of box and on label inside
module) or MIN number of the device you are replacing.
Once module is registered, you may log out of the AlarmNet Direct website.
Using the Tamper Switch
Initiate the registration sequence by clicking the Tamper Switch three times.
You can monitor the registration process by viewing the Status Display. The Message
(yellow) LED and the Status (green) LED will blink slowly in unison while registration is in
progress.
Once the registration has been completed successfully, the GSMHS enters normal operating
mode; the Status (green) LED goes out and the Message (yellow) LED is lit to indicate that
the Power On / Reset message is waiting to be sent. This message will appear at the
receiving station as “E339 C08xx”, where “xx” is the ECP device address. The description
may read “Trouble – Exp. Mod. Reset”. If registration is not validated within 90 seconds,
the GSMHS times out, and the (green) LED will be lit (solid).
The Power On / Reset message will be sent in Ademco High-Speed format if the module is
programmed for zone trigger, 4204 or 2x4204 modes.
Using the Programming Tool
The interactive registration feature allows the installer to register the GSMHS through a
series of keyboard commands on the 7720P Programming Tool. This method of registration
lets the installer monitor the registration process.

Signal Strength (RSSI) / Mode and Status LEDs
The Signal Strength (RSSI) / Mode and Status LEDs normally display the module’s signal
strength. LED 1 (red LED on the left) will be lit to indicate that the display is in RSSI mode,
and the other LEDs indicate signal strength (lowest to highest, from left to right) between
the module and the receiving tower.
 The signal strength RSSI LEDs will indicate regardless of whether the SIM is activated.
(If the SIM is not activated, the red FAULT LED will be lit).
 This allows you to immediately determine if the desired mounting location has sufficient
signal strength for proper operation.
 If the SIM is not activated
, you can determine the signal strength by simultaneously
pressing the MODE and TAMPER buttons. For proper operation, look for at least 3 bars
lit solid.

The GSMHS can be used to provide high-speed up/downloading to Honeywell VISTA control
panels over the Internet (via the GPRS network). This allows site maintenance independent
of central station monitoring, and modification to sites globally. At this time, some control
panels support downloading through the ECP bus and some control panels support
downloading through the use of a Direct Wire connection. Residential (low-end) control
panels such as the VISTA-20P support ECP downloading. Currently, control panels such as
VISTA-128BP and FBP support downloading through use of a Direct Wire connection (using
the trigger connections on the control panel).
U
L
Downloading may only be performed if a technician is at the site.
Direct Wire Setup
To perform up/downloading using Direct Wire, the GSMHS requires that Direct Wire
Downloading is enabled (Direct Wire Y/N), and that the ECP device address on which the
GSMHS communicates with the control panel as a keypad is entered (Keypad Address).
Additionally, the GSMHS must be connected by cable as shown below to the panels listed.
NOTES:
1. For Direct Wire IP downloading control panels (e.g. VISTA-128FBP, FA1700C), Program Field3
2. This feature is not available if device is set for zone trigger mode.

Appendix D: Glossary
AES – Advanced Encryption Standard
DHCP – Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, which provides a mechanism for allocating IP
addresses dynamically so that addresses can be reused when hosts no longer need them.
DNS – Domain Name System, which is a distributed hierarchical naming system used to
resolve domain names (e.g., www.yahoo.com) into numerical IP addresses (e.g., 204.17.25.1.).
DSL – Digital Subscriber Line
ECP – Enhanced Console Protocol, which is a proprietary communications bus used in
Honeywell VISTA control panels for wiring additional keypads and peripheral devices;
consists of a four-wire data bus (power+/-, data in/out).
Gateway IP Address – A gateway (sometimes called a router) is a computer and/or software
used to connect two or more networks (including incompatible networks) and translates
information from one network to the other. The Gateway IP address is the IP address for the
gateway.
GPRS – (General Packet Radio Service)
GSM – Global System for Mobile communications, which is an international standard for
digital mobile phone systems used for cellular communication.
IMEI – International Mobile Equipment Identity number
IP – Internet Protocol
IP Address – A unique number consisting of four parts separated by periods, sometimes
called a "dotted quad.," for example: 204.17.29.11, assigned to every computer/workstation
connected to the Internet. IP numbers can be "static" (assigned and unchanging) or
"dynamic," assigned via DHCP at each and every startup.
ISDN – Integrated Services Digital Network
ISP – Internet Service Provider
LAN – Local Area Network
MAC ID – Media Access Code; located on the module label.
PPPoE – Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet
Subnet Mask – A Subnet is a portion of a network that shares a network address with other
portions of the network, and is distinguished by a subnet number. The Subnet Mask is a 32bit address mask used in IP to indicate the bits of an IP address that are being used for the
subnet address.
TCP/IP – Transmission Control Protocol / Internet protocol
