NOTICES ABOUT THIS MANUAL This manual assumes that you have basic security system installation skills such as measuring voltages, stripping wire, properly connecting wires together, connecting wires to terminals, and checking phone lines. It also assumes that you have a familiarity with the proper installation and programming tasks related to various Control/Communicator panels. The material and instructions covered in this manual have been carefully checked for accuracy and are presumed to be reliable.
FUTURE TESTING AND LIMITATIONS ON USE Telguard is part of an advanced design alarm-communication system. It does not offer guaranteed protection against burglary and fire. Any alarm communication system is subject to compromise or failure. The Telguard will not work without power. Devices powered by AC will not work if the AC power supply is off for any reason, however briefly, and at the same time, the backup battery is missing, dead or not properly installed.

1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION The Telguard model TG-5 is a digital cellular radio alarm transmission device used to provide a primary transmission path (cellular) for control communicators (C/Cs). It uses the secondary transmission path (telco) when the cellular path is not available. When transmitting an alarm signal, Telguard obtains its data from the C/C by way of a telco interface.
2.0 FEATURES This section summarizes the key features of the Telguard. Actual installation instructions begin in Section 5.0. 2.1 OPERATING MODE The Telguard is a digital cellular SMS transmission device that is installed at the protected premises to provide alarm transmission integrity for security systems and a separate digital cellular voice service. It is used to provide a primary transmission path (cellular) for control communicators (C/Cs).
five times and switches the Telguard to Telco. Restoral of RFC occurs when the communication cycle is completed. 2.3.4.2 RFC2 (Link Termination Failure) After the Telguard receives a Link Request ACK from the TCC, the Telguard communicates with the C/C to acquire the alarm message and transmits the message via radio. If the Telguard does not receive a link termination ACK (where the TCC acknowledges receiving the transmission) within 30 seconds, it will retry sending the entire transmission.
In addition, the data also contains historical data for supervisory events that occurred since the last self-test signal was transmitted. This data includes the number of occurrences of AC fail conditions, low battery conditions, line fault conditions, communications failure conditions and no cellular service conditions. 2.5.
2.7 DIAGNOSTIC AND STATUS LEDS Six LEDs are provided as a useful aid during installation and give installers an immediate visual indication of system status.

3.0 GETTING READY Before attempting to connect Telguard to the host C/C, please note the following: 1. Be sure you have all the proper parts before you go to the job site. The following items are shipped with each Telguard unit: Basic Telguard unit in a metal enclosure. UL Listed plug-in transformer. Antenna. 3-foot modular plug-to-plug cord for connecting Telguard to RJ11X jack.
5.0 INSTALLATION STEPS This five-step installation approach (5.1 through 5.5) provides the alarm installer with the easiest and fastest method of properly installing Telguard. Please follow the instructions carefully and if you should need assistance or have any questions, call for TECHNICAL SUPPORT: 1-800- 229-2326 5.
If moving the Telguard to a different location is not practical, then you may need a longer cable on the remote antenna in order to receive adequate radio signal strength. Pick a high, visually secure spot, using the guidelines below. 5.1.3.1 Tips for Improved Radio Signal Reception • • • • The higher the antenna the better. So, start in the drop ceiling above the unit and proceed up from there, to the roof if necessary.
5.1.5 Place a call on the WVL Connect a telephone to the RJ-11 jack that is wired to the main circuit board of the Telguard marked JP5. You should be able to place a call over the WVL. Dial a number the same as you would over a standard telephone line, there is no need for special dialing. Pay particular attention to the clarity of the call, you are listening for clear (no echoing or static) communications. If there is noise on the line the antenna will require a different position.
5.3.1.
5.3.4 Disconnect Telguard from RJ-11 Jack Disconnect the Plug from J6 of the Telguard that goes to the RJ-11 Jack at the premise Telguard. 5.3.5 Verify Alarm Signal Transmissions over Cellular Trip several alarms on the C/C and verify that the central station received them by calling the central station operator. Use a lineman's buttset in MONITOR MODE and connected to Telguard's "T" and "R" test pins to "listen" to communications between the C/C and Telguard.
5.4.2 Check Telguard Supervisory Trip to C/C After you have connected the STC trip outputs, check to be sure that they operate correctly. 5.4.2.1 Reprogram C/C to Send Proper Code Reprogram C/C, if necessary, to send proper alarm code when tripped by the Telguard’s supervisory output. Program zone restoral as desired. 5.4.2.
