Pre Installation Configuration
Encryption
The communicator uses 128 Bit AES encryption. Encryption can only be enabled from the monitoring station receiver. Each
receiver (Ethernet 1 and 2, cellular 1 and 2) can independently have encryption enabled or disabled. When encryption is
enabled, the central station will configure the device to encrypt communications the next time the communicator module per-
forms a communication to that receiver.
NOTE: Packets will start being encrypted only after the next event is sent to that receiver, or if the unit is restarted.
Before leaving the installation site, the communicator TL2803G(R)E Ethernet line shall be connected via an APPROVED
(acceptable to the local authorities) Network Interface Device (NID). All wiring shall be performed according to the local
electrical codes.
