lInsert or remove the SIM card by sliding it in or out of the holder. The notch on the corner of the SIM card must
align with the notch on the base of the holder.
Installing and replacing the communicator
Note: Before installing the communicator, confirm with the local service provider that there is an available and active
network in the area.
Opening the unit
To open the unit, complete the following step:
lDisconnect power from the panel by removing the power cord and battery.
Installing the communicator
To install the communicator, complete the following steps.
1. On the new communicator, if required, remove the protective metal tab from the 24-pin CON1 header.
2. Align the three holes on the communicator module with the plastic pegs on the alarm panel, ensuring the 24-pin
connectors are aligned with matching pins on the panel. See Figure 3.
3. Press the module carefully onto the alarm panel.
4. To attach the antenna place a nylon washer on either side of the hole on the panel and screw the cable into the
antenna. See Figures 4 and 5.
5. Gently press the main antenna cable connector into the jack labeled JK2 – Main Ant on the PCB. Repeat this step
for the diversity antenna, and connect to the jack labeled JK1 – Div Ant on the PCB.
6. Apply power to the panel by plugging in the power supply module.

Replacing the communicator
Note: For panels with a communicator installed, you can use the foam pad in the unit or the foam pad provided in the
standalone cellular communicator kit.
To replace the communicator, complete the following steps.
1. Disconnect power from the panel by unplugging the transformer and battery.
2. Gently remove the main and diversity antenna cables from the PCB.
3. Release the stand-offs and pull up on the communicator to remove it from the header.

Communicator configuration
For information on how to configure the communicator, refer to the PowerSeries Pro alarm system Reference Manual.
Placement test
To ensure that the communicator is active with a strong signal connection, place the PowerSeries Pro panel in its
intended location and perform the following steps.
1. Ensure the SIM card has been activated.
2. Using the keypad, enter placement test through installer’s programming: [*][8][Installer Code][850].
3. View and record the number of bars showing on the LCD keypad.
4. Compare with the number of bars indicated in the CSQ Levels column shown in the following table.
5. If 3 or more bars are shown, the location is good and no further action is required.
6. If 2 or less bars are shown, the location is poor and the communicator may need to be relocated, or an external
antenna extension kit can be used to improve the signal strength.
