Introduction

Installation tips

This is the GE SuperBus 2000 Concord 4 GSM Module Installa- tion Instructions for part number 600-1053. The module can be used on Concord 4.0 and higher.

The module interfaces with the Concord panel data bus and is powered by the panel battery or an auxiliary 12 VDC power supply. Status LEDs indicate bus and paging network communi- cations. A supervised zone input allows you to connect a hard- wired contact. Figure 1 shows the location of the main module components and Table 1 describes the component functions.

Use the following tips to help guarantee your success with the Alarm.com Concord GSM Module:

1.

Make sure you create the customer account on the

 

Alarm.com dealer website at least 24 hours before installa-

 

tion. See Account creation on page 6.

2.

Make sure you turn off the Access Code Lock feature.

3.

Use the LEDs on the module to check the signal strength

 

before you permanently mount the module.

4.

Power the module off of the battery (see Wiring on page 3),

 

not off of the panel.
