General Information
Congratulations on your purchase of Honeywell's GSMV or IGSMV communication module. The GSMV and IGSMV send alarms and messages from the security system’s control panel to AlarmNet for subsequent transfer to the central monitoring station. In addition to alarm reporting, the GSMV and IGSMV provide two-way voice communications with the central station (when used with Honeywell’s AVS Audio Verification System) and provides upload/downloading capability of Honeywell's control panel data. NOTE: Two-way voice is not compatible with Honeywell Commercial Control Panels (such as the VISTA-128/250 series).

The IGSMV communications module has all of the features of the GSMV and adds internet connectivity. (For Canada, the GSMVCN and the IGSMVCN are designed to comply with Canadian GSM connectivity specifications.) The GSMV and IGSMV represent the latest and most innovative communication technology for the security industry and uses the most sophisticated encryption to ensure the highest level of security for your customer. Since this guide covers both models, where differences occur they will be noted. This guide addresses a simple installation using default programming values where possible and is applicable for the majority of installations. For detailed information, and configuration of remote services, please refer to the appropriate Installation and Setup Guide for the product. The GSMV and the IGSMV are henceforth referred to as the communications module or module. ! The communications module requires an AlarmNet account. For new installations, please obtain the account information from the central station prior to programming this module. ! The communications module is for control panels that support GSM or IGSM communicators and the ECP communications bus. For control panels that do not support ECP, refer to the appropriate installation guide to use other modes. ! The control panel treats the communications module as an ECP device, so program the control panel accordingly. Refer to the control panel’s Installation and Setup Guide for details. REMOTE SERVICES Honeywell offers secure web based services that enable users to remotely monitor and control their security system. These web services enable users to: monitor and control their security system from a website, receive email and text message notifications of system events, and use text messages to control the system and receive confirmations. Dealers can enroll their customers for "Remote Services" by using the AlarmNet Direct website. Once enabled, the specific programming fields associated with these features can be programmed into the communications device either remotely using the AlarmNet Direct website or locally using the 7720P programming tool.

1. Determine Signal Strength and Select a Location
The communications module must be mounted indoors. When choosing a suitable mounting location, understand that signal strength is very important for proper operation. For most installations using the internal antenna, mounting the unit as high as practical, and avoiding large metal components provides adequate signal strength for proper operation. In this step, you will use the communications module to determine signal strength in order to find a suitable mounting location. Note: If the SIM is already activated, the RSSI signal strength indicators will indicate signal strength. (The SIM in the GSMVCN and IGSMVCN is already activated.) If the SIM has not been activated, the firmware in the communications module enables it to communicate with the cellular network towers (without the SIM being activated) so that signal strength measurements can be determined. In this case, you can display the signal strength by simultaneously pressing the MODE and TAMPER switches. RF Exposure Warning – The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20cm from all persons and must not be collocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. 1. Unpack the module and detach the case back by pushing up into the two tabs located at the bottom of the IGSMV with the blade of a screwdriver while pulling the case back and case front apart. 2. Temporarily connect the module to the AC transformer, supplied. 3. Choose the installation site with the best signal strength by observing the signal strength (RSSI) bar graph. Signal 3 BARS MIN. strength should be within 3-5 bars. The best signal R Y Y G G G strength is usually found at the highest point in the building, near a window. Unplug the transformer. 4. Mark the location for the communications module.

2. Mount and Wire the Module
1. Locate the case back over selected mounting position such that the opening in the case back is aligned with the wire/cable opening on the mounting surface. 2. Pass the wires/cable through the opening in the case back, or route through the removable knockouts located on the back cover. Then secure the case back to the mounting surface using four screws (supplied). 3. Make the following connections:

4. When all wiring has been completed (including the Internet cable and Audio cable if used), attach the case front. Position the top first, then press the bottom section until it snaps in place. Secure bottom using the supplied cover screw. (Required for UL installations.) 5. You may power up the module and control panel.

3. Connect the Internet Cable (IGSMV / IGSMVCN only)
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable (Category 5) to the module’s RJ45 Ethernet connector and the other end to the cable/DSL router as shown in the figure below. ! For UL installations, the Ethernet connection between the communications module and the router cannot exceed 12 feet. Both units must be located within the same room. ! Use a Listed cable/DSL router suited for the application.

4. Connect and Route the Audio Cable for Two-way Voice (if used)
The communications module requires an audio cable (supplied with the GSMV) to support twoway voice using an AVS Base Unit. Note the AVS Base Unit is part of Honeywell’s AVS Audio Verification System. This system consist of the AVS Base Unit, Remote Station, and the Remote Station PC board. For detailed information, please refer to the AVS Audio Verification System documentation. Follow the guidelines below for connecting the audio cable. 1. Power down the control panel and AVS Audio Verification System. (When the module is fully wired up, restore power to the control panel and AVS Audio Verification System.) 2. At the module, remove two [2] screws and standoff that secure the small PC board, and swing up. 3. Connect one end of the audio cable to the audio connector located on the small PC board. 4. Secure the small PC board and plastic standoff with two [2] screws. Note the standoff mounts on the right side. 5. Route the audio cable to the connector on the AVS Base Unit and connect the cable. 6. Ensure the audio cable ends are secured with tie wraps to reduce strain.
