SLe-GSM and SLe-GSM-3/4G Series GSM Communicators Installation Instructions
1
INTRODUCTION
The StarLink
™
SLe-GSM and SLe-GSM-3/4G alarm cap-
ture communicators are fully supervised, wireless digital
two-way subscriber units supported by an extensive na-
tionwide wireless network:
•
SLe-GSM
- 2G Network Compatible
•
SLe-GSM-3/4G
- 2G, 3G and 4G Network Compatible
Both models are compatible with virtually any alarm con-
trol panel and are easy to install and test. Either model
can function as a backup to existing telephone lines, or as
a primary communicator when telephone lines are absent
and when connected directly to the control panel Telco
terminals. When used as a backup communicator, both
GSM units will automatically switch the communication
channel from the telephone line to the network when tele-
phone line trouble is detected. Enclosure tamper protec-
tion is also provided for both models.
Note:
In this manual, "SLe-GSM" refers to both models
unless otherwise stated.
The SLe-GSM and SLe-GSM-3/4G use proprietary data-
capture technology that captures the alarm report from the
control panel and transmits the alarm signals to the SLe
Control Center; the alarm signals are then forwarded to
ANY Central Station via standard CS receiver formats 4/2
and Contact ID. In addition, the SLe Control Center gen-
erates and reports a Supervisory signal in the event that
the network does not receive the expected supervisory
test signal from the wireless communicator during a pre-
scheduled period.
The GSM alarm signals are transmitted on the RF data-
only portion of the GSM digital network, providing a fast,
dependable communication path to the central station.
