IPGSM-DPC Commercial Fire Communicator – Installation and Setup Guide
General Information
The IPGSM-DPC Commercial Fire Communicator (henceforth referred to as IPGSM-DPC) includes
everything you need to upgrade a commercial fire system that previously reported by POTS to a system that
uses the Internet as its primary reporting path, and uses a GSM cellular reporting path as a backup. In
addition, this communicator utilizes a sophisticated power module (PowerBoost1) that monitors and reports
AC power loss, low battery, and missing battery conditions.

Operation
The IPGSM-DPC replaces the fire panel's POTS communications path. When an event occurs, the fire panel
goes off-hook to dial the central station. The IPGSM-DPC detects the off-hook condition and provides the
fire panel with a dial tone. When the fire panel detects the dial tone, it begins dialing the central station.
The IPGSM-DPC considers the three second period after dialing as the number dialing has been completed.
After the dialing is completed, the Dialer Capture Module returns a handshake to the fire panel.
The fire panel then sends the contact ID reports to the IPGSM-DPC, which in turn sends a kiss-off after the
report is successfully received from the fire panel. Within the IPGSM-DPC, the Dialer Capture Module
sends the contact ID reports over the ECP bus to the iGSM Communications Module. When all the reports
are sent, the fire panel goes on-hook. The IPGSM-DPC then transmits the messages to the central station
(either over the internet or the GSM network).

Installation
ULC Compliance
To meet Canadian ULC compliance, ensure the following:
IPGSM-DPC must be installed in accordance with Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1.
IPGSM-DPC must be mounted in the same room and within 20 feet of the fire panel. The wiring
must be routed through conduit.
IPGSM-DPC, and all equipment used for the IP connection (such as the router, hub, modem, etc.)
shall be listed, must be powered from an un-switched branch circuit, and be provided with
appropriate standby power.
IPGSM-DPC must use a 7AH battery (not supplied) to provide 24-hour backup capability.
STEP 1 – Setup the Customer Account
The communicator requires a subscriber account (customer account) to be setup with AlarmNet Direct. This
is accomplished by registering the communicator's iGSM communications module with AlarmNet.
Registering, enables the fire panel to send reports.
To setup the customer account you will need to contact the central monitoring station to get account
information, and have access to the AlarmNet Direct website. To access the AlarmNet Direct website visit –
https://services.alarmnet.com/AlarmNetDirect
If you do not wish to use the AlarmNet Direct website, you may call AlarmNet to setup the account, just
phone 800-222-6525, then select option 1.
(Monday–Friday 8:00 am to 9:00 pm, Saturday 9:00 am to 5:30 pm EST)
Have the following information ready:
Primary City ID (two digits), obtained from your
monitoring station.
Primary Central Station ID (two digits), obtained
from your monitoring station.
Primary Subscriber ID (four digits), obtained
from your monitoring station.
Communication Module's MAC ID, and MAC
CRC number located on outside of box, and
inside of the module.
Note: The SIM supplied for the IPGSM-DPC is already activated. Therefore no SIM
activation is necessary.
STEP 2 – Register the Communications Module with AlarmNet
Registering the module activates the account with AlarmNet and enables the fire system's control panel to
send reports. There are three methods that can be used to register the communications module.
Register the module by logging into AlarmNet Direct and choosing “Show Programmed Devices
GSM/I”. Search for the account using the Account Information or MAC ID. Under the “Actions”
column, use the pulldown menu and choose Register. OR
After the IPGSM-DPC is installed and programmed, you can register the module by clicking the
Tamper Switch 3 times. OR
After the IPGSM-DPC is installed and programmed, you can register the module using the 7720P
Programming tool. Simply: Press [Shift ] then press []. Please wait for "Registration SUCCESS"
message.

STEP 3 – Determine the Signal Strength and Select a Location
IMPORTANT - Do Not mount this device outdoors.
RF Exposure
Warning – The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation
distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be collocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
When choosing a suitable mounting location, understand that signal strength is very important for proper
operation. For most installations using the supplied antenna, mounting the unit as high as practical, and
avoiding large metal components provides adequate signal strength for proper operation.
In this procedure, you will use the iGSM Communications Module to determine signal strength in order to
find a suitable mounting location.
Note: Since the SIM is already activated, the RSSI signal strength indicators will indicate
signal strength.
1. You will need a fully charged 12V battery.
2. Attach the Antenna (see illustration on page 6).
3. Temporarily wire the battery's negative [–] terminal to TB1–4 on the iGSM communications module,
then wire the battery's plus [+] terminal to TB1–2 on the communications module. Wait about one
minute for the module to initialize.
4. Position the assembly near a suitable mounting position and observe
the RSSI display.
5. Look for a mounting position that yields at least 3 bars lit solid. Four
or five bars are better.

6. Verify the signal strength remains steady for a few minutes, then mark that mounting position.
Disconnect the battery.
STEP 4 – Mount and Wire
For ULC compliant installations, refer to the topic on ULC Compliance in this manual.
For Dry/Indoor use only.
External cabinet wiring MUST be routed in conduit.
This communicator comes partially assembled with all the components mounted except the Antenna, LED
Display board, and PowerBoost1. To protect certain components on the PowerBoost1, it is shipped unmounted but fully wired.
Note: Refer to the diagram on page 6, and to the Wiring Diagram on the inside of the back cover
this manual for wiring and component identification.
1. Remove knockouts from cabinet to accommodate the power input wires, and wiring to the control
panel. (DO NOT REMOVE the two knockouts directly above the PowerBoost1 module.) Then mount
the cabinet securely to the wall using 4 screws or bolts. Use mounting screws or bolts that are
suitable for the material being anchored to.
of
2. Ensure the cabinet door lock is installed.
3. Install the two plastic mounting rails
for the LED Display board. They simply snap into the back
plate holes.

4. Connect the LED Display board to its connector, then slide the board into the mounting rails. (Refer
to the “LED Display Information” topic if a wire is detached from its connector.)
5. Carefully remove the packaging material that surrounds the PowerBoost1.
6. Mount the PowerBoost1 on the three unused standoffs. Use the plastic screw
(prevents shorting)
to secure the upper right corner of the PowerBoost1 and the two metal screws and lock washers to
fasten the left side of the circuit board. Ensure the lock washers are located between the circuit
board and the head of the two metal screws.
7. Use the 1451-UL9 Wired Transformer directly connected to un-switched facility power. Connect and
route 14AWG (minimum) insulated wire from facility ground to the 1451-UL9 enclosure ground post
and through the conduit to the IPGSM-DPC cabinet ground post.
8. Route 16AWG wire from the transformer secondary, through the conduit. Pass the wires through
the Ferrite Filter, then loop the wires back through again making a loop. (Ensure the wire ends that
connect to the PowerBoost1 Module are tinned.) Connect the wires to the PowerBoost1 AC
terminals. At this time DO NOT apply power.
9. Ensure all ground connections are tight.
10. Connect the Ethernet cable and the Telco 1 and Telco 2 lines. If you choose to use an optional
Cabinet Tamper Switch (if the control panel supports it) mount and wire it.
Note: The Ethernet cable, Telco 1, Telco 2 lines, and the optional cabinet Tamper Switch (if used)
must be run through conduit.
11. Verify the PowerBoost1 module DIP switches are configured as shown below.
