Section 9: Programming Guide
The following information is required before programming the T-Link TL250/300 modules.
1. The static IP address for the T-Link TL250/TL300 module (Section [001]).
2. The subnet mask for the T-Link TL250/TL300 module (Section [002]).
3. The static IP address of the static gateway for the LAN to which the TL250/TL300 is connected in
a WAN configuration (Section [008]).
NOTE: For DHCP networks, the above items are not required. Consult your network administrator for infor-
mation 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
PC4020, PC5020 or PC1616/1832/1864, [380] Option [5] enables 3rd number to backup. DSC recommends
programming the TL250/TL300 to transmit first for faster communication. If the land line communication is
programmed to communicate first, then the TL250/TL300 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 T-Link TL250 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 Installer Programming ([4][8][Installer Code] within
the first 10 minutes of power up.
Step 3 Scroll to Diagnostics (04) and press [4].
Step 4 Scroll to Binary Programming (01) and press [4].
Step 5 Enter the address of the address location 03044 and change the value to 28, this will change
the time to 40 seconds.
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 Numbers’).
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 the TL300 then program YES for ‘DLS Enabled’ in sec-
tion [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 communicate.
The communication format must be programmed for SIA [000400XX01].
Step 5: Enter section [000406] for T-Link TL250 module programming options.
NOTE: Data must be entered within a 14-second window. Exceeding the 14s limit will result in the following
sequence: a tone will sound, exit from the programming section, all data previously entered will be lost.
Step 6: Program the static IP address for the T-Link TL250 module in section [001]. Program
000.000.000.000 for DHCP.
Step 7: Program the subnet mask for the T-Link TL250 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].
Step 9: If the Sur-Gard receiver is on a different network segment than the T-Link TL250 module,
the gateway address associated with the TL250 module must be programmed in section
[008]. This is an optional step; determine if this is required with the network administrator.
Step 10: Program the T-Link TL250 account number in section [003].
NOTE: The T-Link account number can be up to 10 digits long. If account number is less then 10 digits lead-
ing zeros must be entered.
Step 11: When TL250 Programming is completed perform the following for programming changes to
take effect. In T-Link Programming Section [999], enter digits [55][#]. It will take approxi-
mately 15s for the module to reboot. Press the [#] key to exit T-Link TL250 programming.
