Diagnostic and Status LEDs
Eight active LEDs are provided as a useful aid during installation and give installers an immediate
visual indication of system status. The LEDs serve as indicators for activation, system trouble
conditions, power, and communication indicators. They can also provide a signal strength indication,
similar to the signal strength bars on a cellular phone. See Appendix 2 or the installation section for
details.
Optional DC Operation (12VDC or 24VDC)
The TG-7 Dual Path Series communicators can be operated solely by DC power provided by an
alarm panel. This eliminates the need for a separate AC outlet at the protected premises. To use,
connect 12VDC or 24VDC regulated power from the p
ground on the communicator. LED 8 will illuminate to indicate the communicator has a valid power
source. The provided AC adapter should NOT be used when powering the communicator from the
alarm panel.
NOTE: When using TG-
TG-PEM and the TG-PEM Telguard Power connection should go to the DC input on the
communicator. See Installation Guide for the TG-PEM for more details.
NOTE: When using DC power from an alarm panel (with or without TG-PEM), the communicator
should not be connected to an AC power source or to a battery.
backup battery
powers the communicator when the panel loses AC power. Be sure to account for this load
when determining how to supply power to the communicator.
Complete Factory Reset Option
A special function within the TG-7 Dual Path Series communicators allows you to perform a
complete Factory Reset on the unit. This reset will change all unit settings back to a factory default
configuration.
NOTE: Never attempt to do a Complete Factory Reset on an active account because the unit will
need to be re-activated.
To begin the factory reset, follow these steps:
•
Power cycle the device. For the first three seconds after power up, all LEDs will be lit solid.
•
While the unit shows this pattern, press and hold the RSSI button. After 15 seconds of
button press, the LEDs will begin to sequentially turn on and off in a cascading pattern,
indicating the factory reset is taking place.
•
Release the RSSI button. After the factory reset concludes, the LEDs will go back to normal
status.
