PERMACONN PM45/3G Install Manual Radio Data Comms Unit 5/20-30 Stubbs Street Silverwater NSW 2128 Telephone: 61 2 9352 1777 Facsimile: 61 2 9352 1700
Introduction The Permaconn system provides two-way communication between supervised premises and the monitoring centre. The Permaconn PM45-3G is a versatile state of the art microprocessor based 3G and IP security communicator. This unit can interface with a range of alarm panels using RS232 and Contact ID. Alarm messages are sent via IP first and then 3G. Features of the Permaconn PM45-3G 1 Input 1 Output Contact ID interface High level serial Interface The IP Module acquires an IP address automatically using the customers DHCP service IP reporting 3G Reporting Monitors and reports status of alarm panel interface lead Non volatile memory stores all setup information in the event of a power failure Dual Sim Cards No onsite programming required RF signal strength indicator Various LED status indicators for easy onsite diagnostics 2
Atlas Web Platform Atlas is a secure web based platform that enables users to activate and interrogate their Permaconn GPRS/IP outstations remotely for diagnostic and control purposes. This application can be accessed via the web using any Smartphone, tablet or PC. We strongly recommend using this to application to verify your install. You can sign up anytime on www.permaconn.com.

If it is set to DHCP Connection to the internet indicated by IP LED Green steady on Connection to the 3G network indicated by MOBILE LED Green steady on The signal strength will be displayed HB LED green signal ok, red low Plug the original dialler lead supplied with the alarm panel into the 611 tail on the PM45-3G 3
Installation Procedure continued... Program the alarm panel - Contact ID, Tone Dialling, account number, and an 8 digit telephone number. Generate an event from the alarm panel. Test input and output. Ping the device with Atlas to verify status of installation. Antenna Installation Antennas can have their performance maximised with a Ground Plane. (which is a metal surface) Please use the supplied ground plane if you are not mounting this antenna on a metal surface at least the same size. Significant performance reduction occurs if an antenna does not have a ground plane. Connecting the Alarm Panel Always use the original telephone lead supplied with the alarm panel between the alarm panel and the PM45-3G. A four wire connection is required between the alarm panel and the PM45-3G. Ring & Tip as input and R1 & T1 as the return line. Always use 611 Tail plugged into the PM45-3G. PM45-3G 4
Programming the Alarm Panel Panel must use tone dialling. Panel must be programmed with at least an 8 digit phone number. Panel must report Contact ID format. Panel must be programmed with a Hard ID. Defaulting the Permaconn PM45-3G Apply DC power and depress reset button for - o 5 seconds to reset 3G settings. o 10 seconds to reset IP configuration. LEDS will all flash together for four (4) seconds to confirm successful default Input and Output Output is open collector 12V, 50mA switching negative, for heavier loads a relay must be used. The output can be Opened, Closed or Pulsed remotely using the Permaconn Atlas web platform. Compatible with Pocket Secure remote arming App, available on itunes and Google Play. Input must be terminated with a 3K3 resistor. LED Status Indicators PM45-3G LED Activity Indication HB Flash Green * Signal strength OK Flash Red Signal strength Low or trying to reconnect Mobile Green On* Unit is Online with GPRS network Flash Red Connectivity with Permaconn network IP Green On* Unit is connected on IP network Flash Red Packet received on IP network CID Green On * Alarm panel sent a valid CID message Red On Alarm panel dialler lead faulty * Normal Operation 5
How to change the IP & port numbers if required 3 Before you start you need the following: Laptop Network cable Permaconn IP setup program (available from www.permaconn.com.au ). To connect to the PM45-3G: Connect the PM45-3G to the PC (or in the same LAN with standard Ethernet cable). Run the program IpSetup.exe Enter the serial number of the unit and press connect Default the Permaconn unit and wait until the screen is populated with the current values. Important, the PM45-3G will only attempt to connect to the setup program after a default. To change values, simply modify the fields and select write. When the PM45-3G is switched on it initialises with the default settings, so a large percentage of installations should work right away. You only need to modify the setup for special local requirements. All settings below are also available through the Atlas web portal if the PM45-3G has 3G Connectivity. 6
How to change the IP & port numbers if required continued... 3 Obtain IP address automatically If ticked, DHCP is enabled and the unit will obtain the IP Address, IP Mask and the Gate Way automatically. Otherwise you must enter these values yourself. Please note that these values must be correct for the clients LAN that you connect the IP63 module to. Use DNS below If this is ticked, you must enter valid IP addresses that point to the available domain name servers. If not ticked, it is filled in by the DHCP service of the LAN. Note that a DNS is only required if you are using a domain name for the primary and/or secondary server addresses. Local Port You can use any port above 10000, not critical. Remote Port This must match the listen port of the Permaconn server, the default should be correct for your country. If in doubt, confirm with Radio Data Comms. This port is vital - if incorrect the unit will not be able to connect. Download Port This is set by default and you must not change this port, it is not vital for communicating with the server during normal operations. MAC Address This is set by default and is unique for each unit. It should only be changed if the instructed by the IT department responsible for that network. Primary and Secondary Server Connection This is also set by default and is correct for your location. This is also a vital setting and must be correct; otherwise the unit will not be able to connect. If in doubt, check with Radio Data Comms. This field can be either an IP address or a domain name. Transmission Delay Times Message originating from the panel are forwarded immediately. Alarm panel interface fail sent if not restored within 90 seconds. 7
