IPGSM-DP Commercial Fire Communicator – Installation and Setup Guide

To exit the programming mode, press [N] in response to the "Review?" prompt. Then press [Y] to the "Exit Prog Mode?" prompt. Upon exiting, the root file is updated to log the changes made. A message is displayed telling the user that this step is being executed. When complete, the message "DONE" is displayed to indicate the file was successfully uploaded.

Note: If critical configuration changes were made, such as the mode of operation, the communications module will reset to ensure that the programming features are enabled.

If the file is not successfully uploaded, one of the following prompts will be displayed. Follow the steps shown below until the upload is successful.

Setting Factory Defaults

To reset the programming options to factory-default values, at the "Exit Prog Mode?" prompt press [Shift] plus [ESC]. Note, setting the factory defaults will also erase any password that may have been entered.

Set Default?

Y/N_

Press [Y] to reset factory default values. Press [N] to cancel this function.

Press [Shift] then [Y], then [#]. The Create Password prompt appears, follow the prompts then exit.

STEP 6 – Configure the Fire Panel

1.Ensure the Telco Fault on the panel is enabled. Then choose a setting that is no higher than 90 seconds (or as close to that) as the panel allows.

2.Ensure no more than 1 pause character (usually a comma) is programmed into the dialing string (usually 2 seconds). Note, this is necessary since the Dialer Capture Module waits only 3 seconds after the phone number is dialed. Having more than 3 seconds of pause time will cause it to think the phone number is complete and cause it to generate the high-low tones at an incorrect moment.

STEP 7 – Test the System

1.Close the Wall Outlet Box, then close and lock the cabinet cover.

2.Refer to the fire panel's installation/operation guide the testing procedure.

3.(Notify the monitoring station that a test will be conducted.) Test the system to ensure it is operating.
