1 | Overview 2.3 | Install the module
Inserting the SIM card:
1. Break away the SIM card from the plastic die-cut card.
2. Insert the SIM card into the SIM card holder on the module by
sliding it into the card holder, verifying that the gold contact side
of the SIM card is against the module. Refer to Figure 2.1.
The programming of B442 Plug-in Communicators is be done through
the compatible control panel or the B450 Plug-in Communicator Inter-
face. Refer to your control panel guide, remote programming software
help or the B450 IOG for parameter descriptions, options and defaults.
For Bosch Cellular account status and management, use RPS or
the online service portal (go to http://www.conettix.com/Cellular.
aspx and click on the Cellular Portal Login link).
Configure network alarm communication routes and settings in the
control panel. Cellular carrier specific settings such as Access Point
Name and SIM card security can also be programmed through B
Series control panel, or Conettix Plug-in Communicator Interface
(B450).
4 | Configuration
The control panel communicates with and provides power to the
module through the plug-in connection. Proper installation results in
the necessary electrical and mechanical connection.
Installing the module:
1. With the module facing the control panel as shown in Figure 2.3,
insert the support leg into the support hole labeled X.
2. Align the PCB metal contacts with the on-board connector.
3. Push the module into place. The retention clip snaps closed and
secures the module in place.

support handle with your other hand. Pull the module out.
2.2 | Install the antenna
Installing the antenna:
1. Place the magnetic antenna on top of the enclosure, or
vertically on another metal surface.
2. Route the antenna cable through a knock-out.
3. Connect the antenna cable to the module.
4. Secure the antenna cable to the inside of the enclosure.

3 | Diagnostic LED descriptions
At power up, all module LEDs activate for several seconds, indicating
proper insertion. The Signal LEDs then turn off until the module
registers on the cellular network. Registering a new module might take
up to 3 min.
Check the LED display to ensure a good signal strength level, and
adjust the antenna location as required. The signal strength LEDs
momentarily turn off to indicate the module has measured and
updated the signal strength status. Refer to Table 3.1.
Table 3.2: STATUS LED descriptions
Flash pattern Function
Red Indicates an unacceptable
signal strength level.
Yellow Indicates a marginal
signal strength level.
Green (1 light) Indicates a good signal
strength level.
Green (2 lights) Indicates a very good
signal strength level.

The B443 provides IP communication over the GSM (GPRS/EDGE/
UMTS/HSPA+) digital cellular network by directly connecting the
module to the control panel. The control panel can be configured to
use B443 for alarm reporting, remote access and personal notification
messaging.
The B443 module requires a SIM card with active cellular service
to communicate. Bosch Cellular service and SIM cards are
available in some countries. Consult your Bosch representative for
details.
