2.5.1 Telguard Remote Query Capability
Although Telguard has the capability for a daily, weekly, or monthly automatic self-test, a separate
feature is provided for determining the current operational status of every Telguard. This feature is
called Remote Query and is used to provide real-time operational status for Telguard on-demand. It
is useful in resolving STC events that are reported by the C/C to the central station. Authorized
personnel can initiate the Remote Query at any time by calling Customer Service. The Remote
Query causes Telguard to upload current operational status data and historical data, just as the
automatic self-test described above, except that the query signal is controlled by the one who initiates
it. The query signal is held in the Telguard database at the Communication Center for review and is
not forwarded on to the central station.

ONNECTIONS
The conveniently located terminal strips provides wiring connections for the Telguard supervisory trip outputs,
battery leads for connecting to a 12 volt 4.0Ah, or 7.0AH rechargeable battery, and AC power. The terminal
strip can accommodate solid or stranded wire sizes from 14 to 22 gauge.
2.6.1 Programmable Supervisory Trip Output (STC) Relay
The Telguard Digital TG-1 has one supervisory relay trip output (STC) and is energized in a powered-
up state when no system troubles exist. It enables a supervisory trouble code to be transmitted to the
central station when connected to a C/C’s 24-hour instant input zone. The STC relay is
programmable, using a standard touch-tone telephone or butt-set, to meet virtually any installation
requirement.
The following supervisory features or combination of features are programmable to trip the STC
relays in order to meet a variety of installation requirements:
•
Trips on
AC fail condition
(ACFC)
•
Trips on
low or missing battery condition
(LBC).
•
Trips on
no service condition
(NSC).
•
Trips on
radio communication failure condition
(RFC).
The following system trouble features are embedded in the Telguard for tripping the STC relay and
cannot be changed:
•
Tripped when unit is not registered with the Telular Communications Center (TCC)
•
Trips on c
atastrophic failure
(CF) if all power is lost.
•
Trips on
transmit-disable command
from the Communication Center. This radio command
disables only the Telguard transmitter and would be used, for example, to shut down the
Telguard due to a runaway dialer.
