Section 9: Programming Guide
The following information is required Before programming the T-Link TL250/TL300 modules.
1. The static IP address for the T-Link TL250 module (Section [001]).
2. The subnet mask for the T-Link TL250 module (Section [002]).
3. The static IP address of the receiver (Section [007]).
4. The static IP address of the static gateway for the LAN that the T-Link TL250 is connected to in a
WAN configuration (Section [008]).
NOTE: For DHCP networks, the above items are not required. Consult your network adminis-
ter for information about the DHCP settings.
Important!: If a telephone line is used to back up communication, program the phone number you
want to use as a backup or dial direction option in section [000401] ‘Communication Toggle
Options’. If using a PC4020 or a PC5020 [380] option 5, enables 3rd number to backup. DSC recom-
mends programming T-Link TL250 to transmit first for faster communication. If the land line com-
munication is programmed to communicate first, then the T-Link TL250 communication will be
delayed for the duration of the land line call (30-45 seconds). This also applies when using the phone
line for backup only.
9.1 Basic Programming (PC4020 Control Panel)
NOTE: PC4020 v3.3 or higher required (Rev04B hardware).
DSC recommends changing the reporting code transmission delay from 20s to 40s on the PC4020:
Step 1 Power down the MAXSYS panel.
Step 2 Power up the MAXSYS panel. Enter installers programming ([*] + 8 + Installers Code)
within the first 10 minutes of power up.
Step 3 Scroll to Diagnostics (04) and press [*].
Step 4 Scroll to Binary Programming (01) and press [*].
Step 5 Enter the address of the address location 03044 and change the value to 40 seconds (0x28).
Programming Steps:
Step 1: Program the Hex digits [CAAA] in the telephone number that will be used for T-Link
TL250 communications (section [0004000000] ‘Communicator + Main Items Phone Num-
bers’).
NOTE: You must delete the [D] in the telephone number first (this is the dial tone detection).
Step 2: Program YES for ‘T-Link Enabled’ option, section [000401] ‘Communication Toggles’.
Step 3: If using DLS communication over T-Link then program YES for ‘DLS Enabled’ in section
[000300], ‘DLS Section +DLS Toggles’.
Step 4: Program the dialer direction options for the phone number that has been programmed to
send T-Link communications in section [000400XX02], where XX = telephone number
00-02 in the ‘Communicator + Main Options’.
NOTE: Auto report SIA section [000401] must be enabled in order for the T-Link TL250 to com-
municate. The communication format must be programmed for SIA [000400XX01].
Step 5: Enter section [000406] for T-Link module programming options.
Step 6: Program the static IP address for the T-Link module in section [001]. Program
000.000.000.000 for DHCP.
Step 7: Program the subnet mask for the T-Link module in section [002]. This option will be
ignored if the unit is set for DHCP.
Step 8: Program the receiver static IP address (DRL3-IP line card or the PC running The Reporter
IP software) in section [007].
