Description
The cellular module interfaces with the Concord panel data bus
and is powered by the panel battery or an auxiliary 12 VDC
power supply. The module can be used on Concord 4.0 and
higher. Status LEDs indicate bus and cellular network
communications. A supervised zone input allows you to
connect a hard-wired contact.
Figure 1 below shows the location of the main module
components and Table 1 below describes the component
functions.

Use the following tips to ensure success with the Alarm.com
Concord cellular module:
• Make sure you create the customer account on the
Alarm.com dealer website at least 24 hours before
installation.
• Make sure you turn off the Access Code Lock feature.
Note: This feature must be off for the system to
communicate with Alarm.com
• Use the LEDs on the module to check the signal strength
before you permanently mount the module.
• Power the module off the battery, not off the panel.
• Do a manual phone test to initiate communication (see
“Power up” on page 4).
Account creation
Before installing the Alarm.com cellular module in a Concord
system, a new customer account needs to be created with
Alarm.com. We recommend creating the account at least 24
P/N 466-xxxx4429 • REV B • 08Jul13 1
hours in advance of installation to ensure that the radio is

activated prior to installation.
To activate an account go to www.alarm.com/dealer and login.
Under the “Customers” heading at the top left of the page click
on “Create New Customer”. You will need the following
customer information to create the account:
• Customer Name
• Customer Address
• Customer Phone Number
• Customer E-mail
• Preferred login name for the customer
• Alarm.com Module Serial Number
At the end of the account creation process you will be able to
print a Welcome Letter for the customer that has their login
information and temporary password for the Alarm.com
website.
Installation
Before you install the system, the module must be activated.
The account creation process automatically activates the
module within 24 hours.
• Check the signal strength before choosing a location. Do a
walking signal strength test by powering the module off the
battery directly (connect the GND and +12V terminals).
After 2 minutes, cellular status LED 4 will flash between
one and five times, equivalent to the number of bars on a
cell phone. We recommend a signal level of two or higher.
• Do not the mount the module inside the panel’s metal
enclosure or within 6 ft. (1.8 m) of panel.
• Avoid mounting the module in areas with excessive metal
or electrical wiring, such as furnace or utility rooms.
• Locate the module near an outside wall, preferably on an
upper level.
• For homes or businesses located in canyons or with hills
nearby, it is necessary to place the antenna higher in the
building.
Caution: You must be free of static electricity before handling
electronic components. Touch a grounded metal surface
before touching the circuit board.
To mount the module:
The module draws a maximum of 65 mA (continuous) from the
panel in power save mode, and 100 mA (continuous) from the
panel in idle and connected modes. Do not exceed the panel
total output power when using panel power for bus devices and
hardwired sensors (refer to the panel documentation).
Use four-conductor, 22 or 18 gauge stranded wire to connect
the module to the panel. Table 2 below shows the maximum
wire length for each gauge.
Table 2: Maximum wire length
You will need the following tools and supplies to install the
module:
• Small blade and Phillips screwdrivers
• Drill and bits for screws and/or anchors
• Wire cutter/stripper
• Four-conductor, 22-gauge or larger stranded wire
• #6 panhead screws (4 included)
• Wall anchors (four included)
• 2-Kohm EOL resistor (included)
Use the following guidelines to choose a location for the
module:
1. Press down on the top of the enclosure cover, remove it,
and set it aside.
2. Snap the antenna onto the antenna connector (see
Figure 1 on page 1). To connect the antenna, place one of
your thumbs or fingers behind the antenna connector.
With your other hand, press the end of the micro miniature
coaxial connector (MMCX) into the antenna connector
until you hear a slight click.
3. Place the backplate on the wall at the desired mounting
location, check for level, and mark the three mounting
holes and the wire access area (see Figure 1 on page 1).
4. To avoid placing unnecessary strain on the antenna
connector, which can damage the module, use either of
the following orientations shown in Figure 2.

the backplate to the wall with the enclosed screws.
Wiring
Caution: To prevent damaging the panel or module, you must
remove panel AC power and disconnect the backup battery
before making or changing wiring connections.
To wire the module:
1. Remove AC panel power and disconnect the backup
battery.
2. Wire the module to the panel bus and to the battery
terminals for power. (The module can also be powered off
the SuperBus 2000 two-amp power supply (600-1019), but
should not be powered directly off the panel.)
3. You can connect an input device to the module Z1 and
ZCOM terminals if required.
Case tamper switch (optional)
If the module is easily accessible, you can add case tamper
detection to activate an alarm or trouble (depending on panel
programming) when the cover is removed.
To install the tamper switch:
1. Slide the reed switch into the plastic holder on the module
backplate.
2. Connect a UL-Listed reed switch (with 2 Kohm EOL
resistor) to the module zone input or to any unused
hardwired input on the panel.
3. Insert the magnet into the nibs on the top cover and press
the magnet clip down over the magnet until it clicks into
place into the cover.

You will need to power up the module and panel to start
communication between them.
To power up:
1. Verify that all wiring between the panel and module is
correct.
2. Connect the backup battery and restore AC power to the
panel.
Note: Whenever any module is added or changed, you
must remove panel power and reapply it for the panel and
module to communicate successfully.
3. Enter installer program mode and turn off the Access
Code Lock feature (in the Security menu).
This must be set to off for the system to communicate with
Alarm.com. The module PWR LED should turn on. After a
few seconds, the module BUS and AUTO LEDs should
flash to indicate successful communication with the panel.
4. Verify that cellular status LED L1 is not flashing any errors
and that LED L4 is flashing at least a level of two.
• Off when the module is out of range and not registered
with the network.
• Blinks when the module is registered with the network, but
out of range.
Yellow LED
• On after the first message has been sent by the module
and received by Alarm.com.
• Off until a message has been sent by the module.
• Blinks when the first message is being sent by the module.
Green LED
• Off as soon as Alarm.com receives the message from the
module (off most of the time).
• Blinks when the message is being sent by the module.
Table 3 below describes status LED condition patterns.
Table 3: Status LED condition patterns
Otherwise, relocate the module. If LED L1 and LED L4 are
not flashing at all, and LED L2 and LED L3 are flashing
together, the module is in power save mode and the
battery needs to be changed.
5. Do an installer cellular manual phone test (at system
touchpad, enter 8, installer code, 3). Disarm the panel by
entering 1 <installer code> within 10 seconds of starting
the phone test.
Before doing the manual phone test, the bottom red status
LED should be on and the yellow status LED should be
flashing. The yellow LED will stay on solid once the
manual phone test is completed.
Note: Do not press any system touchpad buttons during
the 5 to 8 minutes, or the time will not set. During this time,
the keypad will go in and out of programming mode and
will beep several times.
Status LEDs
The status LEDs located on the left side of the module indicate
the current signal and the status of the wireless gateway
module. The bottom red LED indicates if the module is in range
and if it is registered. The yellow and green LEDs indicate the
message status. The top LED is not used.
Cellular status LEDs
The cellular status LEDs are five small LEDs located below the
serial number label on the module.
Red LED
• On when the module is in range and registered with the
network.
