1INSTALL THE MODULE
Caution: Ground yourself before handling the panel. Touch any
grounded metal, such as the enclosure, before touching the
panel to discharge static. After grounding yourself, remove all
power from the panel. Remove all AC and Battery power from
the panel before installing or connecting any modules, cards, or
wires to the panel.
The 893A Module snaps into one of the enclosure 3-hole
mounting locations and connects to any compatible panel using
a 7-conductor harness and a 2-foot phone cord. Follow the
instructions below and refer to Figure 2 to install the 893A:
1. Mount the plastic standos to the enclosure three-hole
mounting locations using three Phillips head screws.
2. Insert the screws from the enclosure outside through the
holes and into the plastic stando that mounts on the
enclosure inside and tighten.
3. Gently snap the 893A onto the standos.
4. Use the supplied 7-wire harness to connect 893A connector
to the panel connector.
5. Use the supplied phone cord to connect the 893A modular
connector labeled panel to the panel phone jack
6. Connect the main and backup phone lines to the Main and
Backup modular connectors on the 893A.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Phone Line Monitor
The 893A uses a phone line monitor for the main and backup phone lines. Before sending a report, the 893A verifies that
the main phone line is working. If the line is bad, the module tests the backup phone line. The 893A sends the report on
the first working phone line.
The phone line monitor has a two-minute trouble delay and a one-minute restore delay. Phone line trouble is displayed in
the keypad Status List as a System Trouble. At least one keypad on the system must be programmed to display system
troubles in the Status List.

Two Line Digital Dialer
You can configure the 893A to provide two lines of digital dialer for XR150/XR550 Series panels. The MAIN modular jack
is used for the primary dialer. The BACKUP modular jack is used for the secondary digital dialer line.
Caution: To reduce the risk of fire, use only 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord, such as DMP Model 356
Series Phone Cords.
Processor Fail Buzzer
The 893A Module also monitors the panel CPU and sounds a trouble buzzer whenever the panel is reset or the processor
stops functioning. The 893A Module also monitors the keypad bus and sounds a trouble buzzer whenever the keypad
bus fails to operate.
Jumper Settings
There are two sets of jumpers on the 893A Module. For Digital Dialer,
set both jumpers to DD. Refer to Figure3 for jumper locations.
