DC58M+ Installation Instructions

Regulatory Requirements

General

The DC58M+ digital communicator/modem
must be installed by an electrically competent
person. Before attempting to install the DC58M+,
the installer must be aware of the following:

Application

The DC58M+ digital communicator/modem is
suitable for connection to the following types of
telephone line:

l

Direct exchange lines (PSTN) supporting DTMF
(Tone dialling).

l

PABX exchanges (with or without secondary
proceed indication).

Approval

The DC58M+ digital communicator/modem is
not suitable for connection as an extension to a
pay phone or 1+1 carrier systems. The DC58M+
digital communicator/modem is approved for the
following usage:

l

Automatic call initialisation

l

Operation in absence of proceed indication

l

Automatic dialling

l

Multiple repeat attempts

l

Serial connection

l

Three-way calling using BT Network Services

l

Modem

Usage other than the approved usage or failure to
comply with the installation and programming
instructions may invalidate any approval given to
the apparatus. The approval Label for the
DC58M:

This product is manufactured to meet all
European Economic Area Telecommunication
networks requirements.

Connections

Connection terminals on the DC58M+ are
described as either "Safety Extra-Low Voltage"
circuits (SELV) or "Telecommunications Network
Voltage" circuits (TNV).

The PCB layouts on page 7 shows the two types of
circuits.

+

It is important that the installer ensures that
TNV connections are only connected to
the PSTN and SELV circuits are only
connected to other circuits designated as
SELV circuits.

+

Interconnection circuits should be such
that the equipment continues to comply
with the requirements of 4.2 of EN 41003
for TNV circuits and 2.3 of EN 60950 for
SELV circuits, after making connections
between circuits.

Mounting The DC58M+

The DC58M+ is supplied inside a polycarbonate
enclosure and is small enough to be mounted
inside most control panels.

+

Once the unit is installed the cover must be
secured using the screws supplied.

Compatibility with PABXs

The DC58M+ is only approved for use with
compatible PABX systems. Correct operation in all
circumstances is not guaranteed. If you
experience any difficulties contact Menvier
Technical Support.

Connection To Telephone Network

The person responsible for connection of the
DC58M+ to a PABX system is as follows:

l

If the wiring is owned by British Telecom
PLC - British Telecom

l

If the wiring is not owned by British Telecom,
either:

(a) British Telecom

(b) The authorised maintainer

(c) A professional installer after 14 days written

notice to the authorised maintainer.

Overview

General

The DC58M+ digital communicator consists of a
single PCB fitted in a small polycarbonate case. It
is used to transfer fast format status information
from an alarm system to a dedicated Alarm
Receiving Centre (ARC) via the Public Switched
Telephone Network (PSTN). The DC58M+ also
functions as a V21/V22bis modem. The DC58M+
is required when using the up/downloading
feature on compatible Menvier control panels.

Operating Modes

The DC58M+ can be used as a plug-on
communicator, in this mode the communicator is
plugged in to the control panel using the
appropriate connections cable.

NVM Programming

All programmed data is stored in a plug-in NVM
(Non-Volatile Memory) which will be retained for
up to five years with no power present. The NVM
can be programmed by using a Menvier LCD
Remote Keypad (P/No. NETLCD/TS900.REM) and
an engineer's interface lead (P/No. NETEKI) which
will plug directly on to the DC58M+. Alternatively
the NVM can be programmed using the desktop
programmer PP5.

Your ARC will normally provide a programming
service and will supply a pre-programmed NVM
on request or alternatively fill in the programming
form at the back of this manual and return/fax it to
Menvier Security (Repairs Dept.).

Technical Specifications

Supply: 11.5V - 14V; <35mA dc (Standby);

135mA dc (Active)

The installer must ensure that power
drawn by the DC58M+ plus any
other auxiliary apparatus is within
the rating of the control panel (host)
power supply.

Low Battery: Detection threshold is at 10.8V +/-

0.2V

Modem: 300/300 Baud (V21), 2400/2400

Baud (V22bis)

Programmer: NETLCD/TS900 remote keypad &

interface lead or PP5.

Case Size: 142(w) x 82(h) x 36(d) mm.

Weight 265g

REN value: 0.0

Series Voltage Drop

The voltage drop introduce by the series
connection through the DC58M+ at a line current
of 40mA is 0.1V. When used with other apparatus
(telephone, fax etc.) the total voltage drop
@40mA MUST NOT exceed 2.0V.

Operation

General

When triggered, the DC58M+ seizes the PSTN line.
When a dial tone is detected the DC58M+ lights
the indicator (LED).

1. The appropriate telephone number is dialled,
when answered, the alarm receiver will send a
I.D tone. If no I.D tone is received, the DC58M+
will release the line, and repeat the process a
maximum of three times to each selected
telephone number.

2. When the DC58M+ receives the ID tone it
transmits the appropriate data in the selected
format. If the data is successfully received the
alarm receiver responds with an
acknowledgement tone. The DC58M+
releases the line and flashes the red LED 4
times.

3. If the acknowledgement tone is not received,
the DC58M+ releases theline and tries again.

4. After the third dialling attempt has failed a line
fault is signalled to the control panel to allow
any programmed bell delayto be cancelled.

Three-Way Calling

This is one the new features that is available from BT
Network Services, for this feature to work correctly
the telephone line must have this service enabled
(contact BT for further details). In non-UK countries
you can enabled or disable this feature (as well as
pulse dialling) in programming. See page 9,
Porgramming.

When the DC58M+ is triggered the unit checks for
incoming ringing or off hook (someone trying to
block the call). The unit then sends a "Recall"
signal, which is detected by the exchange as a
request for a new line. With a new line available the
DC58M+ then attempts toconnect with the ARC.

If the DC58M+ is connected to an older pulse dial
only exchange, the numbers being dialled must
be selected to "Pulse" dial, see "Telephone
Numbers" on page 10. This will disable the
three-way calling facility as it is not available on the
older type exchanges.

Line Fault Monitor

The line fault monitor continuously monitors the
PSTN line and will detect:

l

The loss of line voltage (cut line)

l

A line voltage less than 35V (parallel
telephone off hook)

l

An incoming ringing signal that will try and
prevent DC58M+ operation

If the DC58M+ is used on a shared line then the
line fault monitor can be selected to only monitor
a cut line by setting the "HI/LO SECURITY" option to
"LO". It is also recommended that "Three-Way
Calling" is used (see above) so that the security of
the system is not compromised.

Temporary Out of Service

In addition to the line fault monitor, the DC58M+
can be programmed to perform a more detailed
line test at pre-set intervals. The DC58M+ will seize
the line and dial all digits but the last one of
telephone number 1. If the unobtainable tone is
NOT detected it is assumed that the line is healthy
and the unit releases the line. If the unobtainable
tone is detected, a line fault is signalled.

Note: This feature must be disabled if this product
is used in Germany.
