Safety
ESD Precaution
Please note that while the B450 comes in a plastic case, and is protected from ESD, the plug-
in cellular communicator (B44x) does not. All plug-in cellular communicator components may
potentially be exposed to finger touches - therefore extra attention must be paid to ESD
(electrostatic discharge) precaution. Make sure there is no static interference when using the
board. Appropriate ESD protections must be taken and wearing electrostatic equipment is
recommended, such as anti-static wrist strap.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure.
Precision integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage because very small
parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.
!
Warning!
Failure to follow these instructions can result in a failure to initiate alarm conditions. Bosch
Security Systems, Inc. is not responsible for improperly installed, tested, or maintained
devices. Follow these instructions to avoid personal injury and damage to the equipment.
Notice!
Inform the operator and the local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) before installing the
module in an existing system.
Disconnect all power to the control panel before installing the module.

Module overview
The B450 Conettix Plug-in Communicator Interface (wired to a compatible control panel) is a
four-wire powered SDI2, or SDI device that provides two-way communication over commercial
cellular networks using a plug-in communicator.
The B450 Conettix Plug-in Communicator Interface bus address switch determines the bus
address of the device. When required, configuration of the module is managed through the
control panel, a local USB connection, or using SMS.

Bus address settings
The address switch determines the bus address for the B450 Conettix Plug-in Communicator
Interface. The control panel uses the address for communications. Use a slotted screwdriver
to set the address switch.
Notice!
The B450 reads the bus address switch setting only during power up. If you change the
switch after you apply power to the module, you must cycle the power to the module in order
for the new bus address setting to be used for bus communication.

Mount the module in the enclosure
Notice!
UL requires that for security installations, the B450 module be installed in a UL Listed
enclosure with a tamper.
Notice!
If you are not using the interconnect cable, it is recommended to wire the B450 module to
the compatible control panel via the terminal strip prior to mounting the B450 into the
enclosure. Failure to do so will complicate the mounting procedure.
Mount the B450 Conettix Plug-in Communicator Interface using the interior wall of the
enclosure’s 3-hole mounting pattern and the supplied mounting screws.
You must mount the module in the control panel enclosure, or in a UL listed enclosure.
All communicators shall be housed in tampered enclosures. If the unit is used in a commercial
burglar environment, and is enclosed in a commercial enclosure, that enclosure must be
tampered.
If the installation is a local or police station connection, then the B450 must be mounted
inside an attack resistant enclosure.

Installing in a control panel enclosure
Install the B450 on the inside enclosure wall that also contains the supported control panel.
The control panel powers the B450 via the terminal block or bus connection.
Installing in a separate enclosure
Install the B450 on the inside wall of a separate enclosure. The control panel in a nearby,
separate enclosure powers the B450 via the terminal block or bus connection.
Installing in a separate enclosure with separate power supply
Install the B450 on the inside wall of a separate enclosure that also has a separate external
power supply such as the B520 Auxiliary Power Supply Module.
Mount and wire the tamper switch (option for SDI2 bus only)
You can connect an enclosure door tamper switch for one module in an enclosure.
Installing the optional tamper switch for use with a B450:
1. Mount the tamper switch into the enclosure’s tamper switch mounting location.
2. Plug the tamper switch wire onto the module’s tamper switch connector. For the tamper
switch connector location, refer to Module overview, page 7.
3. Verify the B450 module is configured with tamper enabled ON within the SDI2 supported
control panel. Tamper is automatically enabled to ON in GV4 Series v2.00 control panels.
Install and mount the plug-in communicator antenna
Perform the following steps below to install and mount the magnetic antenna.

1. Place the magnetic antenna on top of the enclosure, or vertically on another metal
surface.
Notice!
If you are experiencing a weak signal, place the antenna on top of a metal surface that has a
radius of 10.16 cm (4 in) for optimal performance.
2. Route the antenna cable through a knock-out in the enclosure wall.
3. Connect the antenna cable to the module.
4. Secure the antenna cable to the inside of the enclosure.

Wire to the control panel
When you wire a B450 to an SDI, or SDI2 control panel, you can use either the module's
terminal strip labeled R, Y, G, B (PWR, A, B, COM) or the module's interconnect wiring
connectors (wire included). The figure below indicates the location of both the terminal strip
and the interconnect wiring connectors on the module.

Configuration
Notice!
Power up the system prior to the configuration workflows described in this chapter.
You can configure the B450 using one of the methods described in this section for your
control panel type.
Plug and Play configuration
When installing under the following conditions, the B450 needs no further configuration:
– AES encryption is not required.
– Low signal delay can be no more than 200 sec.
Configuration for SDI2 control panels
Notice!
By default, when connecting a field replacement B450 to an existing SDI2 control panel, the
control panel overrides some of the module settings such as; TCP/UDP Port Number, AES
Encryption, Tamper, Panel Programming, IPv4 DNS Server IP Address, Alternate IPv4 DNS
Server IP Address, and TCP Keep Alive Time. To keep custom module settings when you
connect a module to a configured control panel, you must disable Panel Programming prior to
connecting to the SDI2 bus. This is accomplished by using either USB, or SMS configuration.
If the SDI2 control panel is not defaulted, the panel sends the network configuration
parameters to the B450.
Address-only configuration conditions
An SDI2 control panel automatically configures a newly connected module.
1. If the control panel is not at factory default, it transfers the configuration settings in the
control panel to the B450.
2. Set the address switch to the correct address for the control panel (SDI2 control panels
use address 1 or 2).
3. Program the control panel communication settings using RPS or the keypad.
The control panel stores the module settings and automatically programs a defaulted module
when connected. If manual module programming is required, use USB or SMS configuration to
set the Panel Programming parameter to Disabled before installing.
Configuring and viewing status from RPS
For SDI2 control panels, the networking related parameters in the Networking parameters in
RPS table can be configured through the panel or RPS. When cellular specific parameters need
to be modified, refer to the USB or SMS configuration sections within this installation and
operation guide for programming workflows and operation.
The B450 parameters within RPS can be found under the SDI2 Modules section under B42x
Ethernet Communicator. The B426 and the B450 modules share these parameters. Refer to
the illustration below for RPS menu selections.
