Cell Roaming Indicator on XTLC
The Cellular Signal Strength option in the panel’s Diagnostic menu contains a roaming
indicator. When the XTLC is roaming or not in contact with a Verizon owned tower,
ROAM will be displayed on the top line of the keypad along with the signal strength.
To perform the cellular activation process from a keypad, the panel MUST be in contact with a Verizon
owned tower. If the cellular communicator is in contact with a tower owned by another network, ROAM
and the signal strength displays, but activation cannot be completed. This feature can be used as a
diagnostic tool to troubleshoot activation issues.
