Installation
Before you install the system, the module must be activated.
The account creation process automatically activates the
module within 24 hours.
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
Gauge Maximum wire length to panel
22 gauge 40 ft. (12.2 m)
18 gauge 90 ft. (27.4 m)
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:
• 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:
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.
