Section 1: General Information About AlarmNet Internet Application AlarmNet is a fully encrypted, secure method of delivering alarm messages from a protected premise to an AlarmNet equipped central station. An Internet Communicator transmits status, supervisory, and alarm messages to the AlarmNet Control Center using a broadband Internet connection. The AlarmNet Control Center identifies, validates, and forwards the messages to the appropriate AlarmNet central station.
LTEM-P Installation and Setup Guide Control Panel Connections The communicator provides two types of control panel connections so it can be used with various types of control panels, as summarized below. ECP Connection • This connection is for Resideo VISTA control panels that support ECP communication Total Connect 2 Compatibility Note: The following VISTA control panel firmware versions support Total Connect 2 Communication (version number is located on the panel's PCB PROM label): Control Panel...

Mounting and Wiring Installation Notes • The communicator must be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. • The communicator must be mounted indoors within the protected premises. • Do not install in air-handling spaces. • Do not mount the communicator on or near metal objects, as this may affect radio communication.
LTEM-P Installation and Setup Guide Mounting the Communicator There are two mounting options: • Mount the Communicator directly to a wall, secured with six screws and a wall tamper screw • Mount the Communicator to a VISTA control panel cabinet, secured to the cabinet via a threaded bushing and locking nut.
Section 2: Mounting and Wiring Mounting the Communicator on a VISTA Control Panel Cabinet 1. Ensure power to the control panel (both AC and battery) is off, then remove the knockout on the top left of the control panel cabinet. 2.
LTEM-P Installation and Setup Guide Wiring the Communicator Wiring for VISTA Series ECP Control Panels Most Resideo VISTA control panels support ECP data communication, (e.g., VISTA-15P, VISTA-20P, VISTA-128BPT and VISTA-128FBPT). However, there are some panels that do not. Check the Installation and Setup Guide for the control panel you are using to see if it supports ECP communication.
Section 2: Mounting and Wiring ECP & BUS Connection Maximum Wire Lengths Minimum Distance from Wire Gauge Control Panel 75 ft (23m) 120 ft (37m) 170 ft (52m) 270 ft (82m) Wiring for Bus Connection Control Panels For control panels that do not support ECP data communication, use the communicator's bus terminals to connect the communicator to the control panel' data terminals.

LTEM-P Installation and Setup Guide DSC Control Panel Connections This section applies to the following DSC PowerSeries (PC) control panels: • PC1616 • PC1832 • PC1864 1. Connect the control panel terminals labeled Black (BLK), Yellow (YEL), and Green (GRN) to the communicator's GND, TX, and RX terminals respectively.
Section 2: Mounting and Wiring Wiring the Fault Trigger Output The communicator's fault trigger output (Trigger Output terminal T1) can be wired and programmed for fail-safe mode (see the program option "FAULT RELAY NORMALLY ON"). To sense a communicator fault at the control panel, see the diagram below. 1.
LTEM-P Installation and Setup Guide Power Connections Connecting the Power Adapter The communicator is powered from the supplied plug-in Power Adapter. 1. Connect the Power Adapter to the communicator's PWR and GND terminals as shown below. Observe polarity. 2. Power Up: After all wiring connections have been made and all optional plug-in modules have been installed, plug the Power Adapter into a 24-hour, non-switched 110 - 240VAC outlet.
Section 2: Mounting and Wiring Installing Optional Plug-in Modules LTE Communication Module If enhanced cell radio features are desired, install the optional PROLTE Series Communication plug- in module. Models include PROLTE-V and PROLTE-A. Refer to the instructions included with the PROLTE Series module for additional information.

LTEM-P Installation and Setup Guide 2. Install the PROWIFIZW module by mating the module's connector to edge connector on the upper left side of the communicator's PCB. Make sure the module is fully seated in the connector. Slip the module board under the clip tab to lock it in place as shown below. 3.
Section 2: Mounting and Wiring Dialer Capture Module An optional Dialer Capture module (PRODCM)can be used for controls that send Contact ID alarm signals via the control panel's dialer. The dialer capture module replaces the phone line and simulates the phone service to the control panel. The alarms are then sent to AlarmNet for routing to the central monitoring station.
Page 22
LTEM-P Installation and Setup Guide Additional Notes When Using the Dialer Capture Module • The Dialer Capture module supports only one-way communications (from the control panel to the central station). For those control panels that support two-way voice communications, speakerphone, paging, follow-me, etc., these features will no longer be available. The control panel must be programmed for one-way communications only.
Section 2: Mounting and Wiring External Antenna If adequate signal strength cannot be achieved with the internal antenna, an external antenna can be used. An Antenna Kit with an antenna cable, adapter cable, clamp, and bracket will be required. Instructions for mounting the antenna are provided with the kit. The following Antenna Kits are compatible: CELL-ANTHB •...

LTEM-P Installation and Setup Guide Supervision time is factory-set to "Daily" (24 hours) and cannot be changed. Supervision • Daily The AlarmNet network must hear at least one supervisory message from the communicator during this supervision period; otherwise, AlarmNet notifies the central station that a communication failure has occurred.

LTEM-P Installation and Setup Guide NOTE: In order to select email notification (Multi Mode), an account must be created in AlarmNet 360 and “Remote Access” must be selected. Multi-Mode (email notification) is intended as a convenience for the user and does not replace Central Station reporting of critical events (alarms, troubles, etc.).
Registration Registering the Communicator Once you have programmed the communicator, it must be registered. Registering the communicator activates the account with AlarmNet and enables the security system's control panel to send reports. Before the communicator is registered, the REG (green) LED will be on. You can monitor the registration process by viewing the display LEDs.
