Light indications of states:

The IP-500G communicator incorporates a variety of 

LEDs to indicate the different statuses of the 

communicator.

There are LEDs to indicate the signal strength of the WiFi 

network, the results of the reports to the server and the 
monitoring station.

 

Explanation of light indications:

There are two groups of leds, the ones that inform the 

signal strength of connection with the Wifi network and 

the ones that inform the results of the communications.

Wifi Signal Indicator LEDs 

These LEDs indicate whether or not the communicator 

is connected to a network.

If the communicator is connected to a Wifi network, the 

blue LED representing the Wifi Antenna will indicate its 

signal strength by flashing as many times as its signal 

level.

The number of flashes represents the signal level, with 1 

flash for a very low signal level and 5 flashes to indicate 

the maximum signal level.

If the communicator is not connected to a Wifi network, 

the red “No Signal” LED will be on indicating that the 

communicator is not connected to a Wifi network.

Communication indicator LEDs

The communicator is prepared to communicate via a 

Wifi connection.

When there is a control communication or any kind of 

report, its result will be indicated by the leds represent-

ing the communications.

When a report is made to the monitoring station or in 

residential format, the result will be represented by two 

LEDs, one representing the successful report (ACK) or 

the one indicating communication failure (NAK).

When the communicator reports a supervision to 

monitoring or to the Garnet Techonology server it will 

light both LEDs simultaneously.

Status LED

This LED indicates the working mode according to 

the flashing speed. If the led blinks slowly (1 time per 

second), it means that it is configured to work in “DSC” 

mode, if the blinking is fast (10 times per second), it is 

configured to work in the BUS-C485.

values [xxxxx1xx].

With Keyboard G-LED732 / KPD-800

 

1) 

*8 + [5] + [INSTALLER CODE] + [INSTALLER CODE].

2) 

Program the command [299] with the following values 

[xxxxx1xx].

NOTE:

 DSC panels cannot be programmed via the com-

municator and the configuration App.

Programming the Communicator and Panel from the 

Garnet Programmer app.

The communicator is programmed via the app.

“Garnet Programmer.

This app also allows Garnet alarm panels to be programmed.

To download the programming app scan the following QR 

codes as appropriate or search the download shop for the 

Garnet Programmer app.

Follow the steps below:

1) 

Press the button on the board that says 

“AP ENABLE”

This will cause the communicator to generate a WiFi 

network for a period of 5 minutes.

2)

 Search your phone for available WiFi networks and 

connect to the WiFi network whose name is

“IP-500Gxxxxxx”

. XXXXXXXX being the last 6 digits of the 

communicator mac.

3) 

Enter the default network password: admin1234.

4)

 Once the communicator enters programming mode.
