Special LED Indications during Activation
If the communicator fails the activation process, it will be displayed on the LEDs.
•
If LED 1 and LED 4 are flashing, the communicator has failed activation. The serial number is not
in the database at the TCC. Clear the fault (see note below) and call Telguard Technical Support
to verify proper registration before resending an alarm signal.
•
If LEDs 1-5 are flashing, there is an activation error. The activation message was NOT received at
the TCC. Clear the fault (see note below) and retry transmitting an alarm signal. If the
communicator fails a second time to activate, check signal strength. If signal strength is OK,
then call Telguard Technical Support for further assistance.
NOTE: In order to clear the faults listed above, the RSSI button must be pressed twice. After
the issue has been resolved and the unit cleared, STEP 4 MUST BE REPEATED TO ACHIEVE
SUCCESSFUL ACTIVATION OR THE COMMUNICATOR WILL NOT TRANSMIT ANY SIGNALS.

Verify Alarm Signal Transmissions Over Cellular
Trip several alarms on the alarm panel and verify that the central station received them by calling
the central station operator. Use a lineman's butt-set in
MONITOR MODE
connected to the
communicator's "T" and "R" test pins to "listen" to communications between the alarm panel and
the TG-7FP.
If you are having problems getting reliable alarm signal transmissions, additional adjustments may
be necessary.
•
Recheck signal strength. You need at least RSSI = 2 ½
(TWO LEDS ON SOLID AND THIRD
FLASHING)
for adequate signal transmission. Also, check antenna connector and make sure it is
seated correctly.

Call Telguard Technical Support, 1-800-229-2326 option 9.
Step 5: Connect Supervisory Trip Outputs
Connect and test the supervisory trip outputs to the alarm panel.
Enabling of a local alarm or strobe light may be desirable when a trip is declared. The STC trip
output can be used directly to activate a local signaling device, provided that the trip output is not
needed to trip the alarm panel at the same time. If both a local signaling device and an alarm panel
are required, then external relays are needed to provide additional uncommitted contacts.
Reprogram Alarm Panel to Send Proper Code
If necessary, reprogram the alarm panel to send proper alarm code when tripped by the
communicator
oral as desired.
