General Information
System Overview
Introduction
The LTEM-P Series Communicators utilize the latest LTE technology specifically designed for loT
de ices to communicate with AlarmNet. The LTE CAT-M1 technology pro ides impro ed power
efficiency and signal strength underground and within buildings. LTE CAT-M1 is a ailable e erywhere
that current LTE networks reach with strong enough reception for consistent connections.
The LTEM-P Series Communicator, herein referred to as the communicator, easily connects to your
security system's control panel and sends alarms and messages to AlarmNet for subsequent transfer
to the central monitoring station.
The LTEM-P Series includes the following models:
• LTEM-PV (Verizon network)
• LTEM-PA (AT&T network)
The communicator also supports the following optional plug-in modules:
• LTE CAT-1 Cell Radio Module for enhanced cellular radio features (model PROLTE series)
• Wi-Fi/Z-Wa e Module for Wi-Fi
®
connection to the Internet and/or for control of home automation
de ices (model PROWIFIZW)
• Dialer Capture Module for use with control panels that send Contact ID signals ia Dialer (model
PRODCM)
NOTES: • The communicator requires an AlarmNet 360 account. For new installations, please obtain
the account information from the central station prior to programming this communicator.
For replacement installations, the AlarmNet 360 account is created automatically when
the communicator is registered.
• Due to Resideo's continuing effort to impro e our products, your de ice may look slightly
different than pictured.
General Information
The LTEM-P communicates ia the Internet (when ser ice is a ailable) and switches to cell ser ice
when the Internet is not a ailable (pro ided the Communication Path is set to IP & Cell).
Connection to the Internet is made by direct Ethernet cable to the router, or ia Wi-Fi
®
(requires use of
the optional Wi-Fi/Z-Wa e module). Only one of these methods may be used, not both.
In normal operation (with Internet connecti ity), the LTEM-P communicates from your customer's
network connection to the Resideo Network Operations Center, (NOC) ia the AlarmNet network. The
NOC recei es data and routes the information to the Central Station of your choice, based on the
account number you assign to the communicator. Note that your Central Station needs to gi e you
the account number. The same account number is used for both Internet and cell transmissions. If
your current Central Station is capable of recei ing signals from the Resideo NOC, they are capable of
recei ing signals from the communicator.
If, for some reason, Internet connecti ity is not a ailable, (for example, your customer's ISP is off line
or disconnected) and the Communication Path choice is set to IP & Cell, the communicator transmits
signals ia the cellular network to complete these transmissions. These transmissions are sent to the
Resideo NOC and then forwarded to your Central Station the same way as if they were recei ed ia the
Internet.
If the Internet AND Cell network are both una ailable, the message will not be sent ia this de ice.

About AlarmNet Internet Application
AlarmNet is a fully encrypted, secure method of deli ering alarm messages from a protected premise
to an AlarmNet equipped central station. An Internet Communicator transmits status, super isory,
and alarm messages to the AlarmNet Control Center using a broadband Internet connection.
The AlarmNet Control Center identifies, alidates, and forwards the messages to the appropriate
AlarmNet central station. AlarmNet has an unlimited account capacity.
Supervision Features
The communicator pro ides the following types of super ision and fault detection:
•Network communication failure: In the e ent the AlarmNet network does not hear a super isory
message from the communicator within a specified time, AlarmNet notifies the central station of a
communication failure.
•Communication path failure: When the communication path is set to Ethernet & Cell or Wi-Fi &
Cell, both the Central Station and the control panel can be notified of a communication path failure.
Both failures are considered true faults when the respecti e fault times ha e expired ("Cell Fault
Time" and "IP Fault Time" for either Wi-Fi or Ethernet options) pro ided it has been set to a non-zero
alue. Notification is sent to the central station upon this expiration. Notification to the panel is
controlled by the "Notify Panel Of” option.
(NOTE: if the "Cell Fault Time" and "IP Fault Time" options are set to zero, faults will not be reported.)
•Fault Trigger Output: A fault trigger output (trigger output terminal T1) acti ates upon the
following communicator fault conditions if alarm reporting is enabled for the condition*: tamper,
power loss, low battery, battery charger fault, and loss of network connecti ity (communication path
loss). The fault trigger output can ser e as a fail-safe trigger (if programmed to do so) to ensure the
control panel is alerted in the e ent of a complete communicator power loss (no ac and no battery)
or if the wiring from the communicator to the control panel is cut. Refer to the "Fault Relay Normally
On" option in the Programming the Communicator section for details.
* Alarm reporting for the noted condition must be enabled for it to trigger the fault output.
•rimary power loss and low battery conditions (“Primary Power Loss Reporting,” “Low Battery
Report” options).
•Cover and wall tamper condition (“Tamper Report” option).
Remote Services
Resideo offers a series of web-based ser ices that pro ides consumers with the ability to
communicate with their security system remotely in a number of ways. These web ser ices allow
users to:
•Access their security system from a computer ia a website (Remote Access feature)
•Recei e email and text message notifications of system e ents (Multi-Mode feature)
Dealers will initially enroll their customers for web ser ices during account programming through the
AlarmNet 360 website. The features that can be enabled include Remote Access and Multi-Mode.
Once enabled, the specific programming fields associated with these features can be programmed
into the communications de ice using the AlarmNet 360 website.

Mounting and Wiring
Installation Notes
• The communicator must be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70.
• The communicator must be mounted indoors within the protected premises.
• Do not install in air-handling spaces.
• Do not mount the communicator on or near metal objects, as this may affect radio
communication. It is also good practice to a oid locating the communicator near
wiring such as AC, telephone, HVAC, computer data cables, etc.
• Unshielded, 22 AWG cable is recommended for the communicator power/data wires.
• Do not connect to a receptacle controlled by a switch.
Determining the Signal Strength to Select a Location
When choosing a suitable mounting location, understand that signal strength is ery important for
proper operation. For most installations using the internal antenna, mounting the unit as high as
practical, and a oiding large metal components pro ides adequate signal strength for proper
operation.
You will use the communicator to determine signal strength in order to find a suitable mounting
location.
LTEM- Initial ower Up: Upon initial power up, the communicator LEDs blink in repeated
sequence from top to bottom indicating network initialization.
Green (REG) 

 Yellow (STATUS) 

 Red (FAULT) 

 Green (CELL) 

 Green (WIFI)
This sequence may take up to 15 minutes. Do not reset power during this time.
When initialization is complete, the LEDs may blink (per their respecti e functions).
After initial network setup, subsequent resets or power ups can take up to 90 seconds.
1. Unpack the communicator and open the case by pushing in the two bottom tabs with a
screwdri er while separating the case front.
2. Temporarily connect the power adapter and the battery to the communicator. When initial power
up is complete, you can remo e the power adapter and use the communicator on battery power to
find a suitable mounting location.
3. Choose the installation site with the best signal quality by obser ing the Cell LED; it should be lit
solid. The best signal strength is usually found at the highest point in the building, near a window.

• Installing the PROLTE module auto-disconnects the built-in LTE CAT-M1 cellular de ice.
• No additional programming of the PROLTE module is necessary (no need to use AID number). The
module automatically marries with the LTEM-P de ice on power up and connecti ity to AlarmNet.
• When programming the AlarmNet account, use the LTEM-P communicator's MAC and CRC.
Wi-Fi / Z-Wave Module
If a Wi-Fi
®
connection to the router is desired rather than an Ethernet cable connection, install the
PROWIFIZW module. This module also pro ides the ability to control Z-Wa e de ices.
NOTE: The PROWIFIZW requires a router and internet ser ice for Wi-Fi connection.
Refer to the instructions included with the PROWIFIZW module for additional information.
The communicator can use only one Internet connection method: Ethernet or
Wi-Fi, not both.
