NOTICE TO USERS, INSTALLERS, AUTHORITIES HAVING JURISDICTION, AND OTHER INVOLVED PARTIES

  

This product incorporates field-programmable software. In order for the product to comply with the requirements in the Standard for 

Control Units and Accessories for Fire Alarm Systems, UL 864, certain programming features or options must be limited to specific values or 

not used at all as indicated below.

  

Program feature or option  

Permitted in UL 864? (Y/N)  

Possible settings  

Settings permitted in UL 864  

TG-PEM input type 

Normally open, Normally closed, 

Supervised 

Normally open 

 

UL Note for Commercial Fire applications:

 The TG-PEM also has 8 inputs. In commercial fire applications, TG-PEM can host 

a legacy FACP (that does not support a DACT) by connecting defined zone inputs (Normally O

pen) to FACP’s dry contact 

outputs of fire alarm, fire supervisory and fire trouble signaling, to facilitate signaling to a remote supervisory station. All 
interconnecting wiring (including power input) with FACP shall be in max. 20 ft conduit. All inputs on TG-PEM should be 
programmed as Normally Open. 

UL Note for Commercial Burglar applications:

 TG-

PEM’s inputs can be programmed as Normally 

Open, Normally Closed or 

Supervised (with 2.2 k

 EOLR) 24-hr zone inputs. STC1 relay (NO) of TG7 shall be connected to a 24-hr alarm input of a 

compatible burglar panel to report alarms from TG-

PEM’s inputs, including wiring faults when the inputs are in Supervised 

Mode. STC2 relay (NC) shall be programmed to report NSC, LFC, RFC, DTF. 

UL Note:

 

Each input on any PEM module should have a unique zone number programmed. Zone numbers 

can’t be 

duplicated between two PEM modules.  

 

Swinger

 

 

 
Swinger is the repetitive opening and closing of a detection circuit or device for no apparent reason.  Some central stations 

may refer to this as a “runaway” account.

  The TG-PEM allows the installer to enable the swinger feature to limit the 

number of events transmitted on a specific zone or circuit during an ARMED cycle. The swinger feature is used to prevent 
repeated false signals being sent to the central station from a defective field device or common service issues like a loose 
wire or an intermittent connection in a sensor.  

 

 
Swinger settings defined: 

Event count

 is the number of events to detect 

Time span for events

 is the time interval used for the event count 

Timespan without events

 is the time interval where no events are detected 

 
 
Swinger setting examples: 
 

Suppress Alarm Detection 

Event count: 10, Timespan for events: 10 min 
These settings will suppress the event reports when the zone trips more than 10 times within a 10 min timespan. 

 

Restore Alarm Detection 

Timespan without events: 10 min 
This setting will restore the zone when 10 mins elapse with no zone trips. 

 

 

Alarm Format Support 

The Telguard TG-PEM allows configuration of each input zone and reports an event in the Contact ID alarm communication format.  
Central Station delivery or End-User notification is configurable through th
