 Hey everyone, Drew with Geowarm here again to talk to you about installing the Alula Bat Connect into the DSC PC-1616, 1832, or 1864 panels. The first thing that you're going to want to notate off of the packaging is going to be the Mac and the Mac CRC, which will be located on a sticker with a little scan device, excuse me, and you want to go ahead and notate that for activation purposes. So once you're ready to get this thing activated for central station monitoring or for whatever you're doing with it, you're going to go ahead and just make sure you document that information. Move this packaging to the side. Here you're going to see the empty wiring of a DSC PC-1616. This is obviously has no wires in it, but prior to doing anything here you're going to want to make sure that this panel is completely powered down. There'll be a backup battery in here you want to unplug that. Also unplug the power supply and if you're unable to find the power supply, make sure you just unscrew the terminal labeled AC. There's going to be two of them, the first two terminals to the far left, so go ahead and just unscrew one of the wires, back it out, and just make sure it doesn't touch anything because it won't fry you, but it will fry the panel and you don't want that. So if you are going to use that method just be very careful. All right, so you are going to need prior to getting this installed a length of either 18, 20 or 22 gauge for conductor wire, as well as a length of 18, 22 to conductor and that can also be a phone, a piece of phone line that you have laying around or whatever you may have, but you're going to need that prior to the installation. You're also going to need a flathead screwdriver. So what we're going to do is we're going to grab the communicator here and we're going to get this thing wired in. Now I've already pre-wired this, it will not come pre-wired, but I will show you the connections that I've made so that way you have a clear understanding of what I've done. The opening up of this device is really, really easy. There's a little ridged clip on the side. You press that down and then you just pull it open. It opens like so, super easy to do. One of the easier communicators I've encountered to actually get open. Now what you'll see immediately is that there are six connections that have been made inside of this Alula device. So you're going to see the two connections that I've made that are going to be running back to the data of the DSCPC1616. The two connections that I've made here that are going to be running back to power of the DSCPC1616. And finally the last two connections here to the far right are the ones that are going to be running for communications which are tip and ring. So what I've done here is I've taken a green wire and I've wired it into the GN slot on the Alula back connect device. So get a green wire or anything on the four conductor. It doesn't matter as long as you match it up correctly on the panel. So green wire to GN here. I have a white wire instead of a yellow wire in my four strands. So I used white for YN and then I took the black wire and I put that into GND and then I took my red wire and I put it into 12V. So once you have all four of those connections made we're going to go ahead and wire that back to the panel. So we'll take the red wire and you're going to be obviously working on a system that's been powered down at this point. So we're going to take the red wire from the strip of four conductor and you're going to be wiring that into what's labeled AUX plus on the power series panel. So go ahead and get that wired in there and tighten down and there may be other wires in there. This is a terminal. These two terminals actually provide power to devices, auxiliary devices. So we're going to take the black wire from the strip of four conductor now and you're going to wire that into AUX minus which is directly to the right of where we just wired the red wire. So get that tightened down. Now you're going to see the last two remaining wires that we have from this strip of four conductor in this case white and green. What we're going to do is we're going to take the white wire which is sometimes yellow in these four conductor strands and we're going to wire it to yellow. So white or yellow to YEL of the actual panel itself. Once you get that tightened down go ahead and grab the green wire and you're going to take the green and that's going to be going into GRN and then tighten it down. Okay so those are the the connections for both power and for data. Now we're going to obviously I'm wiring this in on top of the box you guys are probably going to pull it in through a punch out or through the back but in this case I'm just showing you right on top here. Now we're going to take the last two strand wire that we were working with from the ALULA device and we're going to take the red wire and put that in ring R-I-N-G. Now these terminals may have wires in them and if they do the terminals labeled ring tip R1 or T1 on the panel you want to take whatever is in there out of there. It doesn't need to be in there at this point this is what's going to be used for communications and after you've made the red connection to ring there you're going to take the black or green or whatever you're using in your case and wire that to tip T-I-P. So we have red to ring and black in this case to tip. At this point you have made all of your connections we have our communications we have our data and we have our power and we also have the ALULA device completely wired here. Six connections and then you can put your internet in here hardwired or you can use wi-fi only or you can use wi-fi internet and cellular which is what most people use as this is a tri-path communicator. So this was the installation of the ALULA BAT connect device into a DSC power series PC 1616 1832 or 1864 panel.
