TG7GS (part # TG7GFS03) is UL Listed for Commercial Fire applications and is approved by California
Fire Marshal. TG7FS is tested based on NFPA72, year 2010 version and passed all the tests fromUL884
Rev9, including the use of single (sole) path.
TG7FS uses GSM/GPRS/UMTS technology on a Cellular Network to transfer the alarm messages
captured from an alarm panel. All the messages including supervisory messages are sent to Telular
Communications Center (TCC) where the messages are decoded and forwarded to an appropriate
central station over a PSTN line. All messages are encrypted on top of the security provided by GSM/
UMTSnohworka.
All messages are acknowledged by TCC to ensure the proper reception. To ensure message integrity, In
oama of failure to get Acknowledgement from the TCC, messages are repeated at least 5 times with QO
seconds interval. If the message delivery fails even after aUempte. T87FS will trip the relay on the
panel, so that a local annunciation will occur to show the failed delivery. All messages are also encrypted
with 128-bit encryption tuensure the exact transmission, so there are no issues with data |ooa because of
poor radio conditions.
UL has tested TG7FS for sole path communications. TG7FS provides constant 5 minute supervision
when configured as a sole path commercial fire unit and can provide 200 second supervision when
configured as sole path commercial burglary with standard line security. Please find the UL Listing Card
and Test Records attached.
Data throttling doesn't apply for TG7FS as the GPRS data usage is very limited. In case of a GPRS
failure, supervision is provided by SMS messages, so, there are no issues with throttling. As long as we
have cellular service in the area, SyWSwill work eo it utilizes the signaling ohanne|o, not the data
channels. The message throughput is tested internally and by UL and certainly meets the NFPA72
requirements of9Oseconds.
When configured for dual path communication, TG7FS monitors the Incoming Telephone connection (if
present) to the panel at least once everySO seconds. |fitdetects the telephone path is compromised, it'll
automatically switches hocellular backup mode. |t1| also trip on alarm on the panel using the ST(} relays
connected to it and sends the alarm to the central station. Sn, a trouble is detected for the Telco path in
less than 5minutes.
When configured for sole path communication, TG7FS periodically sends check -in messages to TCC
every 2 minutes. If TCC doesn't receive the check -in messages in the last 5 minutes, an alarm is
automatically generated by TCC to the central station, indicating the path loss. This way, we meet the
specs from section 26.6.3.1.4.1.
If there is any errors or incomplete transmissions by TG7FS, TCC will either send a NACK or ignore the
messages, prompting TG7FS to retry the messages. All incomplete, corrupted or other signal errors are
recorded and stored at TCC. The message decoding, formatting it to send to a central station is all done
automatically and is done by a powerful Dell 1950 servers, so the processing delay is about 1 second. It
employs multiple modems to process alarms to the central stations and can process simultaneous alarms
without any delay. TCC keeps a record of all the alarms processed through it, but those will not be
displayed to any personnel, unless a customer reports an issue with his/ her unit(s).
TG7FS installation manual clearly states the minimum requirements for cellular radio signal strength
indicator (RSSI). If the signal levels are below the threshold, the installer needs to move the unit where
there is a good cellular coverage or use external antenna or do both. Data integrity can be tested by the
installer by simply removing the antenna and make sure there is no cellular signal and tripping an alarm in
that condition. TG7FS will send the alarm 5 times with 90 second interval. The installer can connect the
antenna back during this interval period and ensure the alarm is transmitted as soon as the TG7FS gets
the cellular signal.
