GENERAL INFORMATION
The GSMVLP-ADT is an optional communication module intended for use with ADT QuickConnect
3000 control panels, and provides wireless communication with the ADT network for delivery of alarm
and other messages to the monitoring central station.
The GSMVLP-ADT cellular communication module transmits signals via the GSM cellular network,
using GPRS, and forwards them to your Central Station.
System Features
•Quick connection to compatible ADT QuickConnect 3000 control panels
•Simple programming using a 7720P programming tool or via the AlarmNet Website
•Reports fire, burglary, and status messages via GSM
•Allows uploading and downloading of control panel data via GSM
•Uses 2-way ECP communication with the control.
•Enables two-way voice (AAV) communication between the control and central station via GSM
•Sends reports in Contact ID format
•Supports remote control of alarm system via Remote Services Feature
•Fully powered (primary and backup battery) from the control
The GSMVLP-ADT provides the following types of supervision and module fault detection:
•Network communication failure: In the event the ADT network does not hear a supervisory
message from the module within a specified time (“Supervision” option, 24 hours, 30 days, or none),
the network notifies the central station of a communication failure.
•Communication path failure: In the event the module detects a communication path failure, the
control panel can be notified of a trouble condition with the module after a specified time has
elapsed.

1. Disconnect power from the control, including the battery, BEFORE installing the GSMVLP-ADT
module.
2. CAUTION: ESD SENSITIVE DEVICE. To discharge any static buildup, briefly touch a chassis
ground point before installing this module. Avoid performing this installation while standing on a
carpeted floor.
Opening the ADT QuickConnect 3000 Control and Installing GSMVLP-ADT
1. Install the provided IC label (P/N 800-05101) on the control’s back case as shown on Figure 2.

3. Install the control in accordance with the ADT QuickConnect 3000 Installation Instructions.
4. Install the GSMVLP-ADT into the control’s back case and secure it with the three provided screws.
Refer to Figure 3.
For best radio performance, the wires, ECP/power cable and shielded audio cable must be
routed as shown in Figure 4.
5. Connect the provided ECP/power cable between the GSMVLP-ADT module and the PC board and
route the cable as shown in Figure 4. This cable provides DC power and ground for the module
and ECP connections.
6. Make the wiring connections and install the control in accordance with the ADT QuickConnect
3000 Installation Instructions.
7. Remove the backing from the tape on the provided tie wrap mount. Install the tie wrap mount in
the lower right side of the back case as shown on Figure 3.
!
Do not block the ventilation slots in the case when installing the tie wrap mount.
8. Secure the wiring with the provided tie wrap as shown in Figure 4.
9. Program the GSMVLP-ADT. Refer to the Programming the GSMVLP-ADT Module section.
10. Connect the provided shielded audio cable between the GSMVLP-ADT module and the PC board
and route the cable as shown in Figure 4.

Programming the GSMVLP-ADT Module
The GSMVLP-ADT Module can be programmed through the following methods:
•The AlarmNet Direct website
•Use of a 7720P Programming Tool
Using the AlarmNet Direct website
To program the module via the website (if you are already signed up for this service), go to:
https://services.alarmnet.com/AlarmNetDirect/userlogin.aspx
If you are not signed up for this service, click on “Dealer Sign-Up”. Log in and follow the on-screen
prompts. Please have the following information available when programming the module:
1. CS1 IP Address (12-digit number)
2. CS1 Port (0-65535)
3. Access Point Name (APN 1) (roch, aurora, kc)
4. CS2 IP Address (12-digit number)
5. CS2 Port (0-65535)
6. Access Point Name (APN 2) (roch, aurora, kc)
7. Primary Subsystem Number (two-digit number)
8. Primary Group Number (three-digit number)
9. Primary Subscriber ID (four-digit number)
10. After programming is complete, you must transfer the data to the GSMVLP-ADT.

Using a 7720P Programming Tool
After the GSMVLP-ADT has been installed in the ADT QuickConnect 3000, connect the 7720P
Programming Tool as shown in Figure 5. The GSMVLP-ADT powers the 7720P Programming Tool via
the programming jack. Each key of the 7720P has two possible functions: a normal function and a Shift
function.
•To perform a normal key function, simply press the desired key.
•To perform a Shift function, press the [shift] key, and then press the appropriate key.
The prompts in this document reflect use of the 7720P Programming Tool. Table 1 lists each normal

Programming Conventions
Programming is accomplished by answering a series of prompts (questions). Most prompts require only
a [Y]es or [N]o response, while others require a numerical response (ID numbers, etc.).
The current value is displayed on the second line in parentheses ( ). A "?" indicates an invalid entry.
Use the [ENTER] key to accept the current entry and proceed to the next prompt. If the entered value
is invalid, pressing [ENTER] re-displays the prompt; the next prompt is not displayed until a valid
answer is entered.
Use the up/down arrow keys to scroll through the programming questions without changing any values.
Press the [ESC] key to go to the end of the list of questions.

APPENDIX A
SUMMARY OF LED OPERATION
GSMVLP-ADT Status Display Operation
The GSMVLP-ADT Status Display has four LEDs used to indicate message and device status (refer to
Figure 5). When installed in the control, the LEDs appear in the following order from top to bottom.
•STATUS, green
•MESSAGE, yellow
•FAULT, red
•MINIMUM SIGNAL STRENGTH, green
Each LED can have four different states - ON, OFF, FAST BLINK and SLOW BLINK. Throughout this
document, the key shown in Figure 7 is used to describe LED state:
ON
GSMVL-002-V0
OFF FAST BLINK SLOW BLINK
