2.2 Digital Life Controller Cabinet
In the customer’s home the AT&T Digital Life Controller (DLC) Cabinet houses the
Digital Life Controller Board, which is the central device in the Premises Platform. The
DLC Cabinet will be wall mounted in a closet, utility room or basement similar to a
traditional home security cabinet and adjacent to an AC power outlet. The cabinet is
made out of plastic and features a main cabinet door and a secondary battery backup
door (See Figure 2.) The cabinet is equipped with three tamper switches, which when
activated will automatically send alarms to an AT&T Digital Life Central Monitoring
Center:
A tamper switch is located on the backside of cabinet and is triggered if cabinet is
removed from the wall.
A tamper switch associated with main cabinet door is triggered when the main
cabinet door is opened.
A tamper switch associated with the battery compartment door is triggered when
the battery compartment is opened.
