TL280 R Alarm Communicator International GUIDE V4.0 installation manual visit www dsc com This manual contains information on limitations regarding product use function and information on the limitations as to liability of the manufacturer INSTALLER PLEASE READ CAREFULLY to Installers warnings on this page contain vital information As the only in contact with system users it is the installer responsi to bring each item in this warning to the attention of all users of system Failures system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possi There are circumstances however involving fire burglary or types of emergencies where it may not provide protection Any system of any type may be compromised deliberately or may to operate as expected for a variety of reasons Some but not all the reasons may be by Intruders may enter through an unprotected access point circumvent sensing device evade detection by moving through an area of coverage disconnect a warning device or interfere with prevent the proper operation of the system Failure every effort has been made to make this system as reliable possible the system may fail to function as intended due to the of a component of Radio Frequency Wireless Devices may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or delib jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference Knowledge system contains security features which were known to be at the time of manufacture It is possible for persons with intent to develop techniques which reduce the effectiveness these features It is important that your security system be periodically to ensure that its features remain effective and it is updated or replaced if it is found that it does not provide the expected of Replaceable Batteries system wireless transmitters have been designed to provide years of battery life under normal conditions The expected life is a function of the device environment usage and type conditions such as high humidity high or low temperatures large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which when the batteries need to be replaced this monitor may to operate as expected Regular testing and maintenance will the system in good operating condition Installation security system must be installed properly in order to provide ade protection Every installation should be evaluated by a security to ensure that all access points and areas are covered and latches on windows and doors must be secure and operate intended Windows doors walls ceilings and other building must be of sufficient strength and construction to provide level of protection expected A reevaluation must be done during after any construction activity An evaluation by the fire and or department is highly recommended if this service is available Testing problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as can be found by regular testing and maintenance The com system should be tested weekly and immediately after a break an attempted break in a fire a storm an earthquake an accident any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises testing should include all sensing devices keypads consoles indicating devices and any other operational devices that are of the system Time may be circumstances when the system will operate as yet the occupants will not be protected from an emergency to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner If system is remotely monitored the response may not occur in time protect the occupants or their belongings Detectors detectors can only detect motion within the designated areas shown in their respective installation instructions They cannot between intruders and intended occupants Motion do not provide volumetric area protection They have mul beams of detection and motion can only be detected in unob areas covered by these beams They cannot detect motion occurs behind walls ceilings floor closed doors glass parti glass doors or windows Any type of tampering whether inten or unintentional such as masking painting or spraying of any on the lenses mirrors windows or any other part of the system will impair its proper operation infrared motion detectors operate by sensing changes in tem However their effectiveness can be reduced when the ambi temperature rises near or above body temperature or if there are or unintentional sources of heat in or near the detection Some of these heat sources could be heaters radiators stoves fireplaces sunlight steam vents lighting and so on Failure units intrusion detectors smoke detectors and many other devices require an adequate power supply for proper opera If a device operates from batteries it is possible for the batteries fail Even if the batteries have not failed they must be charged in condition and installed correctly If a device operates only by power any interruption however brief will render that device while it does not have power Power interruptions of any are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may electronic equipment such as a security system After a interruption has occurred immediately conduct a complete test to ensure that the system operates as intended and Insurance of its capabilities an alarm system is not a substitute for or life insurance An alarm system also is not a substitute property owners renters or other occupants to act prudently to or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation Detectors detectors that are a part of this system may not properly alert of a fire for a number of reasons some of which follow smoke detectors may have been improperly installed or posi Smoke may not be able to reach the smoke detectors such as the fire is in a chimney walls or roofs or on the other side of doors Smoke detectors may not detect smoke from fires on level of the residence or building fire is different in the amount of smoke produced and the rate burning Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed vio explosions escaping gas improper storage of flammable materi overloaded electrical circuits children playing with matches or if the smoke detector operates as intended there may be cir when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants escape in time to avoid injury or death Lines telephone lines are used to transmit alarms they may be out of ser or busy for certain periods of time Also an intruder may cut the line or defeat its operation by more sophisticated means may be difficult to detect Devices devices such as sirens bells horns or strobes may not warn or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or If warning devices are located on a different level of the resi or premise then it is less likely that the occupants will be or awakened Audible warning devices may be interfered by other noise sources such as stereos radios televisions air other appliances or passing traffic Audible warning however loud may not be heard by a hearing impaired per Alarm Communicator Installation Guide installation manual shall be used in conjunction with the control panel manual All the safety specified within that manual shall be observed The control panel is referenced as the throughout this document This installation guide provides the basic wiring programming troubleshooting information Use this guide in conjunction with the Installation Manual avail online from the DSC website at www dsc com Ethernet communicator is a fixed wall mounted unit and shall be installed in the location in these instructions The equipment enclosure must be fully assembled and closed with the necessary screws tabs and secured to a wall before operation Internal wiring must be in a manner that prevents Excessive strain on wire and on terminal connections Loosening of terminal connections or Damage of conductor insulation Never install this equipment during a lightning storm Information installer
