The communicator can be used as either a backup or primary communicator. The communicator
supports Internet Protocol (IP) transmission of panel and communicator events over Internet and/
or HSPA/GPRS.
The cellular performance of the

Communicator depends greatly on
HSPA(3G)/GPRS network coverage in the local area. The unit should not be mounted in the final
location without first performing the Communicator Placement Test below to determine the best
location for radio reception (minimum of one green LED ON).
NOTE:
Prior to installation of the
3G2060
or
TL2603G
Communicator, confirm with your local
service provider that the HSPA(3G)/GPRS network is available and active in the area where the
communicator will be installed, and that radio signal strength (CSQ) is adequate.
