Honeywell IPGSM-DPC Manual De Usuario

 

– 4 – 

IMPORTANT - Do Not mount this device outdoors.  

 – The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation 

distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be collocated or operating in con-
junction with any other antenna or transmitter. 

When choosing a suitable mounting location, understand that signal strength is very important for proper 
operation.  For most installations using the supplied antenna, mounting the unit as high as practical, and 

avoiding large metal components provides adequate signal strength for proper operation.  
In this procedure, you will use the iGSM Communications Module to determine signal strength in order to 
find a suitable mounting location. 

Note: Since the SIM is already activated, the RSSI signal strength indicators will indicate 
signal strength.  

 

1.  You will need a fully charged 12V battery. 
2.  Attach the Antenna (see illustration on page 6).   

3.  Temporarily wire the battery's negative [–] terminal to TB1–4 on the iGSM communications module, 

then wire the battery's plus [+] terminal to TB1–2 on the communications module.  Wait about one 

minute for the module to initialize. 

4.  Position the assembly near a suitable mounting position and observe 

the RSSI display.   

5.  Look for a mounting position that yields at least 3 bars lit solid.  Four 

or five bars are better. 

6.  Verify the signal strength remains steady for a few minutes, then mark that mounting position.  

Disconnect the battery. 

 

 

  For ULC compliant installations, refer to the topic on ULC Compliance in this manual. 
  For Dry/Indoor use only. 
  External cabinet wiring MUST be routed in conduit. 

This communicator comes partially assembled with all the components mounted except the Antenna, LED 
Display board, and PowerBoost1.  To protect certain components on the PowerBoost1, it is shipped un-

mounted but fully wired.  

Note: Refer to the diagram on page 6, and to the Wiring Diagram on the inside of the back cover of 
this manual for wiring and component identification. 

1.  Remove knockouts from cabinet to accommodate the power input wires, and wiring to the control 

panel.  (DO NOT REMOVE the two knockouts directly above the PowerBoost1 module.)  Then mount 

the cabinet securely to the wall using 4 screws or bolts.  Use mounting screws or bolts that are 

suitable for the material being anchored to. 

2.  Ensure the cabinet door lock is installed. 
3.  Install the two plastic mounting rails for the LED Display board.  They simply snap into the back 

plate holes.
