indicators. They can also be used to provide a signal strength indication, similar
to the signal strength bars on a cellular phone. See the installation section for
details.
Optional DC Operation (12VDC)
The Telguard can be operated solely by DC Power Source (for example, power coming
from an alarm panel’s auxiliary 12V output). This will eliminate the need for a
separate AC outlet at the protected premises. Connect the panel power to DC Input
and ground on the Telguard and the Telguard will operate normally. The Telguard‘s
operational range is 6.2V - 16V DC.
Note: When using DC power, the Telguard should not be connected to a battery or AC
power source. Because there is no AC connection, the AC LED will be OFF when
operating in DC mode. Battery will not charge on DC power.
Complete Factory Reset Option
A special function within the Telguard 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.
To begin the factory reset, wait for the unit to initialize and hold down the RSSI
button for 15 seconds. After 15 seconds, the LEDs will begin to sequentially turn
on and off in a cascading pattern. This is your indication that the factory reset
is taking place. After the unit resets, the LEDs will go back to normal status
(deactivated, factory default configuration).
UL and ULC Listings
The Telguard meets the requirements for all Household Burglary and Household Fire
installations.
Note: The alarm panel must also be UL or ULC Listed for the appropriate categories
above.
