Installation and Operation Manual
Bosch Security Systems, Inc.
receive a response to supervision polls, the B465 creates a communication trouble event. The
trouble shows on the B465 trouble LED. You can configure the B465 to send a trouble report
to a second receiver, or using the onboard Ethernet communicator.
Signal strength and diagnostics LEDs
Five LED patterns indicate that you correctly secured the module in the B465 plug-in slot and
indicate the signal strength obtained by the module. Refer to
B465 LED status indicators, page
, Conettix Plug-in cellular module LEDs for more information on cellular module LEDs.

Report routing
The B465 has several configurations for sending reports to the central station receiver.
Configuration options include sending reports to one or two central station receivers, using
one or two network technologies (Cellular or Ethernet). Refer to the examples below.
Example 1: One receiver and one network technology
You are sending reports to one central station receiver using one network technology. In the
Advanced Communication Configuration > Account Setup menu, the Number of Receivers
parameter is set to 1 (in RPS the Secondary Receiver parameter is set to Disabled), and you
are using one network technology (either Cellular or Ethernet).
Example 2: One receiver and two network technologies
You are sending reports to one central station receiver using two network technologies. The
B465 uses the alternate network technology when the preferred network technology fails.
In the Advanced Communication Configuration > Account Setup menu, the Number of
Receivers parameter is set to 1 (in RPS the Secondary Receiver parameter is set to Disabled),
In the Standard Communication Configuration menu, the Preferred Network Technology
parameter is set to Ethernet or Cellular. The Alternate Network Technology parameter is set to
Enabled. After two failed attempts to send a report using the Preferred Network Technology,
the B465 uses the Alternate Network Technology.
For example, you select Cellular as your primary network technology making Ethernet the
alternate network technology. The B465 loses communication with the central station receiver
due to a power outage in the cellular tower. The B465 uses the alternate network technology,
Ethernet, restoring the communication link to the central station.
Example 3: Two receivers and one network technology
In the Advanced Communication Configuration > Account Setup menu, the Number of
Receivers parameter is set to 2, primary and secondary (in RPS the Secondary Receiver
parameter is set to Enabled). You are using one network technology (either Cellular or
Ethernet), and both the primary receiver and the secondary receiver are configured to receive
the same network technology (either Cellular or Ethernet).
After two failed attempts to send a report to the primary receiver, the B465 sends the report
to the secondary receiver.
This configuration is useful when the primary central station receiver has a hardware failure,
or is down for maintenance. The B465 switches to the secondary receiver, maintaining the
communication link to the central station.
Example 4: Two receivers and two network technologies
In the Advanced Communication Configuration > Account Setup menu, the Number of
Receivers parameter is set to 2, primary and secondary (in RPS the Secondary Receiver
parameter is set to Enabled). You are using two network technologies (Cellular and Ethernet),
and both the primary receiver and the secondary receiver are configured to receive both
network technologies (Cellular and Ethernet).
