provides the connection service for the Connect Alarm smartphone application.

 The alarm system can connect to the server over Ethernet (recommended) or
Cellular but not both.

Connect Alarm – data consumption
 There are four sessions that can be used. In this document integration session
1 is used though any session can be used. See “configuration of four
‘integration sessions’ ”.

 The Ethernet receiver can be defined as receiver 1 or 2 (in our document we

use receiver 1) and Cellular receiver can be defined as receiver 3 or 4 (in our
document we use receiver 3). See “configuration of four receivers”.

 It is recommended to perform factory reset before starting the configuration (

[999]<installer code>[999]). Be aware that this erases all previous
configurations.

Connect Alarm – group setting

 Visual verification can be sent to two receivers in parallel using the group feature. It is useful in
case of connection to two power-manage servers or when using both SurGard receiver and
power-manage server and wanting that the visual verification will be sent to both servers.
 Do the following:

 Set [380] option 5 ‘Parallel Communications’ to ON

 Change [300][<two receiver numbers> ‘entry 02’ to ‘Alt Comm Auto’

 set [851][010] option 4 to ON (enable groups)

 In menu [851][018] enter the two receivers that will receive the video. For example, to
create a group of receivers 1 and 2, enter 0102.

Connect Alarm – further steps and remarks

 Connection to the cloud server is made via ITv2 and Fibro protocols in parallel to ensure
smooth and quick app reactions. This is different from ‘neo go’ application that required ITv2
connection only.

 In case of concurrent connection with SurGard, both SurGard and power-manage cloud server
should be getting events simultaneously

 Once fully programmed, please reboot panel (disconnect all power supplies including AC and
battery)

 Make sure that non-used receivers IP fields are set to 0.0.0.0 (Ethernet Receiver 1 Address:
[851][103], Ethernet Receiver 2 Address: [851][113], Cellular Receiver 1 Address: [851][203],
Cellular Receiver 2 Address: [851][213])

Connect Alarm – further steps and remarks

 Enable receiving Arm/Disarm events

go over menus [311] – [318] (all 8 partitions or according to the partitions in your panel) and in
each enable [001], [002] and [003] to the relevant receivers so the alarm/tamper/open-close
statuses will show up in the mobile app.

 Enable siren for Panic Alarm

[015] -> 02 -> Y - [P] Key Audible (Bell/Beeps)

 Integration access code

[851][423] - make sure the access code is the default value (normally
2345678123456781234567812345678) before connecting first time to the server. The power-
manage server changes this code after the first connection.

Connect Alarm Activation
 Before end user uses the app for the first time, installer activation is required
 Activation can be done in one of two options:
 Select a panel from the power-manage web GUI in Panels page and press the ACTIVATE button

Notes:
 The ACTIVATE button appears in panels that are not activated.
 If installer code changes then the panel needs to be re-activated

 Use of AlarmInstall app

 Install ‘AlarmInstall’ app from Google Play Store or Apple App store
 Start the app and accept Terms of Use
 Select ‘Remote’
 On the welcome screen, enter server host address (connect.tycomonitor.com), enter email and password (‘register new account’
in case that you don’t have a registered email&pwd) and press LOGIN
 Press the ‘+’ button (top right of the screen), enter panel web name (12 digits for Neo and 6 digits for power-master) and press
‘Add’ button

Connect Alarm Activation (cont.)

 The user-app activation which is done by the ‘connect alarm activation’ mobile-app can be performed only
when there is an active connection between the power-manage server and the Neo panel. When using a
GPRS/Cellular Neo panel, most of the time the panel is disconnected (the panel is connected when user
is logged in the user-app ‘connect alarm’ and up to 5 minutes after exiting installer menu) from the server
and therefore the panel cannot be activated. To reconnect the panel to the server please send to the
panel the following SMS: connectXXXXXXXXXXXX05205917105501304neo go or exit from installer
code.

 The XXXXXXXXXXXX should be replaced with the panel ID which is located in installer menu
[851][422] (also called ‘panel webname’ in the ‘connect alarm activation’ or ‘panel ID’ in the ‘connect
alarm’ application).

 Sending the SMS will cause the panel to connect within few seconds to the server so the activation
process can complete
