THESE INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE USED WITH THE ALARM CONTROL PANEL INSTALLATION MANUAL
Power Draw: 65 mA
Terminal Connections
KEYBUS - The 4-wire KEYBUS connection is used by the panel to communicate
with the module. Connect the RED, BLK, YEL and GRN terminals to the KEYBUS
terminals on a PowerSeries™ panel.
RJ45 - Requires an 8-conductor UTP network cable with an RJ-45 connector on
the end. This cable is required to plug into an available port on a router or other
DHCP serving network.
To Connect Module to a Control Panel
1. Connect module to the Keybus (with the panel powered down).
2. Connect an 8-conductor UTP network cable with RJ-45 connector to an
available router, switch or hub port with a DHCP server available.
3. Power up the system.
NOTE: The TL-150 module automatically enrolls with the security system as
PC5400/DVACS module.
Administrator's Programming
1. To enter Administrator's Programming: on a computer on the same net-
work, launch a web browser and type "tl-150" in the URL entry line. You
will be prompted for a user-name and password. The default administrative
username is "admin" and the default password is "admin". This password
can be changed any time. The default homeowner username is "user" and
the default password is "user".
2. From the main page choose the "Config" hyperlink in the top right corner.
3. Enter the IP address of the DRL-IP where this module reports.
4. Enter the new Receiver Port number (if required).
5. Enter the Encryption Key. Enter up to 32 HEX characters, unused characters
are zero padded.
6. Enter the customer's account number.
7. Enter the test transmission period (Valid Entries: 0-99). The number you enter
is the number of 15 minute increments the device will wait before sending a
test transmission. A value of "0" will disable the test transmission. Enabling
test transmissions also enables network supervision. See NOTE 3.
8. Administrator password.
9. Reboot the module using the "Reboot Module" link at the bottom of page.
Reset of Admin Password
If the installer forgets the administrator password, it is possible to default the
module’s administrator’s password. Defaulting the password will send a signal to
the central station of a password change (SIA - JV40) . This is to inform the cen-
tral station of a possible “take-over” attempt. The installer must request the fol-
lowing URL to default the password: http://tl-150/8328641
NOTES:
1. Only one TL150 can be enrolled on a local network
2. If any of the DRL-IP Reporting IP, Cypher Key, Account Code fields are changed
you must reboot the module using the "Reboot Module" link at the bottom of
the page.
3. Enabling test transmissions also enables network supervision. If the network con-
nection is down at the time of a test transmission, a General System Supervisory
Trouble will be triggered and the panel will go into trouble. The trouble will be
restored on the next successful communication with the receiver. Setting this
value to zero disables network supervision entirely.
4. Only the following browsers are supported: Internet Explorer, Firefox/Mozilla, and
Netscape.
LIMITED WARRANTY
Digital Security Controls warrants that for a period of twelve months from the date of purchase, the product shall be free of defects in
materials and workmanship under normal use and that in fulfilment of any breach of such warranty, Digital Security Controls shall, at
its option, repair or replace the defective equipment upon return of the equipment to its repair depot. This warranty applies only to
defects in parts and workmanship and not to damage incurred in shipping or handling, or damage due to causes beyond the control of
Digital Security Controls such as lightning, excessive voltage, mechanical shock, water damage, or damage arising out of abuse, alter-
ation or improper application of the equipment.
The foregoing warranty shall apply only to the original buyer, and is and shall be in lieu of any and all other warranties, whether
expressed or implied and of all other obligations or liabilities on the part of Digital Security Controls. Digital Security Controls neither
assumes responsibility, nor authorizes any other person purporting to act on its behalf to modify or to change this warranty, nor to
assume for it any other warranty or liability concerning this product.
In no event shall Digital Security Controls be liable for any direct, indirect or consequential damages, loss of anticipated profits, loss of
time or any other losses incurred by the buyer in connection with the purchase, installation or operation or failure of this product.
Motion detectors can only detect motion within the designated areas as shown in their respective installation instructions. They
cannot discriminate between intruders and intended occupants. Motion detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They
have multiple beams of detection and motion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by these beams. They cannot
detect motion which occurs behind walls, ceilings, floor, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors or windows. Any type of tam-
pering whether intentional or unintentional such as masking, painting, or spraying of any material on the lenses, mirrors, windows
or any other part of the detection system will impair its proper operation.
Passive infrared motion detectors operate by sensing changes in temperature. However their effectiveness can be reduced when the
ambient temperature rises near or above body temperature or if there are intentional or unintentional sources of heat in or near the
detection area. Some of these heat sources could be heaters, radiators, stoves, barbeques, fireplaces, sunlight, steam vents, lighting
and so on.
Important Information: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Digital Security Controls could void the user’s
authority to operate this equipment.
Warning: Digital Security Controls recommends that the entire system be completely tested on a regular basis. However,
despite frequent testing, and due to, but not limited to, criminal tampering or electrical disruption, it is possible for this prod-
uct to fail to perform as expected.
FCC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT
CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Digital Security Controls could void your author-
ity to use this equipment.
This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, in strict accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been type tested
and found to comply with the limits for Class B device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart “B” of Part 15
of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in any residential instal-
lation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment
does cause int erference to television or radio reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on,
the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Re-orient the receiving antenna
• Relocate the alarm control with respect to the receiver
• Move the alarm control away from the receiver
• Connect the alarm control into a different outlet so that alarm control and receiver are on different circuits.
If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions.
The user may find the following booklet prepared by the FCC useful: “How to Identify and Resolve Radio/Television
Interference Problems”. This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington D.C. 20402,
