This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:

 Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
 Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
 Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is

connected.

 Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Radiofrequency radiation exposure information according 2.1091 / 2.1093 / OET bulletin 65

Basic Setup Guidelines for Installation and Programming

1) Obtain the account number from the Central Station :

2) Activate the SIM card by calling your SIM card provider :

*Note: Do step 1 and 2 the day before the install.

3) Setup and program the system in the office or in your vehicle. DO NOT MOUNT THE

DEVICES. (6-11)

4) Add user codes and or badges after initial programming. (Page 14)

5) Silence the siren before you set the alarm. (Page 16)

6) Arm the system and send one alarm signal and video to the central station. Call the central

station and make sure they received the signal. (Page 17)

Note: You will want to disable monitoring until you are ready to send signals into the
monitoring station. (Page 15)

DEPLOYING THE SYSTEM ON SITE

7) Put the panel where you want to mount it and run the GPRS test to make sure you are

receiving good cell signal. If you get 3/5 or better, mount the panel. If not, you will need to
move the panel and run the test again. (Page 21)

8) Now you are ready to deploy the devices. Use your keypad to run the RF test for each

device. If you get a 9/9 for your RF test on the first device, then mount it. If not, you will
need to move the device to get optimal signal. (Page 22)

*Note: There are no external antenna options for the XL control
panel. For cellular issues a third party cellular repeater may be
used to increase signal.

Note: Re-enable monitoring before you send signals (page 14)

8.5) If you are currently using TMT Installer to program the system you can take
still pictures from each MotionViewer using the software. See TMT Installer
Users Manual available on support.videofied.com.

9) Once you have everything mounted, you are ready to arm the system and set off each

device. Make sure you stand in front of each MotionViewer for 10 seconds so the central
station has some video to look at. (Page 17)

10) After you have sent signals to central station, call to verify.

The following pages will go through each one of these steps and, if you have any issues, you cannot
resolve, please feel free to call technical support at 1-651-855-7800 EXT 45, Toll Free: 1-877-206­5800 EXT 45, or you can reach live support chat and additional technical notes at

support.videofied.com.

Sleeping mode and Wake-up on the XL600:

Most of the time, the keypad is in a sleeping mode (backlight off). This mode is automatic after
a few minutes of inactivity. When you put your hand against the touch-pad, the keypad wakes
up. The first touch on the pad that wakes it up will not be a registered command and will only
wake up the touch-pad.

How to Disable Monitoring

Disabling monitoring can be a useful tool in many situations. Before mounting devices and moving the
panel to find a good GPRS level, disabling monitoring will ensure that you will have access to programming
and that unnecessary signals are not sent to the monitoring station. When performing maintenance on the
system you will want to disable monitoring until the issue has been resolved. This will ensure that you will
have access to programming throughout your troubleshooting.

How to RF Test for Deployment of Devices

Running the RF test during the mounting of devices is key to a successful Videofied installation. This test
will ensure that all devices have adequate communication with the control panel. All Videofied devices are
bi-directional which allows the system to ping the device and expect a response. The number of successful
responses out of 9 will be displayed on the keypad for the device you are running the test for. This is also a
relative range that will change in real time as you walk further away from the control panel and back closer.

Troubleshooting

Monitoring Station is not getting ANY video but is getting signals:

Good communication between the MotionViewers and the Control Panel is key to getting successful
video to the monitoring station. During mounting of any device on your Videofied system you must
run the Radio Range/Device Locating test to ensure that the mounting location is with-in range of the
Control Panel.
 Concrete, Metal and earth are some of the largest RF inhibitors and should be taken into

account when choosing mounting locations.

 When running the Radio Range/Device Locating test you should have the site as close to the

same as it would be when the site is closed/no one is there, i.e. close garage doors/service
doors, etc. Device locating steps can be found on Page 17.

MotionViewers

come up with

‘Radio Problem’.

This means that

the MotionViewers

are currently not

talking with the

Control Panel.

Bring the devices

back to the Control

Panel and hit the

programming

button to force

them to sync back

with the panel.

Device Locating will test the RF
signal strength between the device
and the Control Panel. For reliable

transmission this result must be a 9/

9. This is the number of successful
pings between the device and the

Control Panel so a loss of just 1

packet could cause failure to

transmit video.

Important Note: Videofied will only automatically download the first MotionViewer video that is taken and
only if this is the primary event or reason for the panel connecting with the monitoring station. If the account
is on test you will only ever get the first video downloaded. If you are only getting the events at the station
and all tests above pass more than likely you are sending a preceding event (like an arming signal or door
contact) which will cause the video to not auto download because the video is not the primary event.

Monitoring Station is not getting any signals:

Communication between the Control Panel and the Monitoring Station is over the GPRS side of the
GSM cellular network.

 You will want to check your GPRS level to see if there is an error/level is too low. You must

have a 3/5 or better for reliable transmission to the Monitoring Station. How to run the GPRS
level test and GPRS error codes can be found on page 16.

 If you receive a successful GPRS level test you will want to check the panel event log for more

GPRS errors that could be occurring during the attempted transmission but after cellular
authentication.

Panel is staying CONNECTED WITH MONITOR STATION

While the Control Panel is attempting or is connected with the Monitoring Station you will see this
message when you attempt to move around on the keypad. If the system is not successful in
connecting with the station it will retry the connection multiple times, locking you out of programming
until it is done trying. This normally take anywhere between 15-20 minutes.

 If you want to force the panel to disconnect you must

o 1. Remove the batteries from the control panel
o 2. Secure the cover tamper of the panel
o 3. Re-insert the batteries into the control panel and sync the keypad back by pressing

the CLR and ESC/NO buttons at the same time.

o 4. Access the Configuration menu by changing you access level to 4 and go to

Configuration Monitor Station.

o 5. In Monitoring Parameters – Disable monitoring until the connection issue is resolved.

Unable to record device or getting ‘Pairing Failure’ error

This usually occurs when the device still has a pairing key from a previous system or setup. To
perform a pairing key override:

o 1. Remove all batteries from the device.
o 2. Make sure your system is ready to record devices:

o A. If learning in the keypad, press the panel’s programming button. DO NOT

HOLD THE PANEL’S PROGRAMMING BUTTON

o B. If learning in additional devices, make sure the keypad reads ‘Press

Programming Button Of Device’

o 3. Insert a single battery into the device.
o 4. Wait 1 second for device to power up.
o 5. Press programming button of device (for keypads press ‘CLR’ & ‘ESC/NO’ keys at the

same time)

For the 4-button remote keyfobs the process is slightly different:

o 1. Press and hold the ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’ keys at the same time for 12 seconds
o 2. Wait 1 second
o 3. Press and hold the ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’ keys at the same time for 5 seconds, you should

hear 4 beeps from the keyfob.

Finding Manufacture Week and Year

The Manufacture week and year can be found in the serial number of the device/control panel. The
second sets of 4 numbers in the serial number are WWYY.

####0411######## = Which shows that this device was manufactured in the 4th week of 2011.
