Check Proper Operation of Telguard Supervisory Output
Check for proper operation of each programmed supervisory output by causing it to trip the alarm
panel and making sure the proper LED illuminates and that the proper trouble code is reported to
the central station. Skip the testing of any supervisory functions that have not been enabled. Note
that the yellow LED 3 starts to flash when the alarm panel goes off-hook to report the alarm signal
over cellular.
•
No Service Condition (NSC): Disconnect the antenna from the TG-7FP. Check to see that the
STC LED 2 flashes 4 times and if configured, alarm panel will detect the tripped STC after the
selected period of time indicating loss of RF signal strength. Reconnect the antenna and check
to see that the STC LED 2 goes off within the configured period indicating RF signal strength
restored.
Step 6: Connect and Test the Trip Input (optional)
The trip input is connected to the external relay by wiring the external relay to the TRIP IN terminal
(pin 6) of the terminal block, and the other side to the TRIP GND terminal of the same block (pin 5).
Note that trip inputs are commonly wired such that there is a 2.2k
Ω
resistor in parallel with the
external relay, so that a tamper condition (e.g., a cut wire) can be detected. When the trip input
functionality is being used, closing the trip contact will cause the communicator to send a message
to the TCC, which in turn will cause the TCC to send a message to the central station. If the
communicator is configured to report restorals, the contact opening will also be reported.
UL Compliance Note:
The trip input feature shall only be used for supplementary signaling.
Initiating zones shall not be connected to the trip input.
Step 7: Connect Tamper Switch (optional in fire-only systems/required for burg)
The TG-7FP provides a two-pin connector to the embedded tamper switch. Securing the cover of
the enclosure presses down on the tamper switch creating an open state, removing the cover
creates a closure.
Mandatory for Commercial Burg Use
When installing TG-7FP for Commercial Burglary or combination Fire and Burglary Applications, a
tamper switch is used to monitor the TG-7FP enclosure opening. The tamper switch needs to be
connected to a zone on the panel and shall designate the zone as Tamper Protection. All Canadian
Installations shall also meet the installation requirements of CAN/ULC-S302 standard for Installation
and Classification of Burglar Alarm Systems for Financial and Commercial Premises, Safes and
Vaults.
Optional Use or As Required by AHJ
For all other installations, the tamper switch can be used to report unauthorized alarm system
access by connecting it to a zone on the panel and designating the zone as Tamper Protection.
Some local enforcing authorities may require that the tamper feature be used.
