Notes on using a T-Link
The T-Link has a choice of 3 receivers when transmitting signals. Should the communications be lost to
Receiver 1, the T-Link will generate a local trouble and send the trouble to the appropriate receiver.
The loss of Receiver 2 or 3 does not
generate any signal since they are not supervised. The panel can direct to which receiver the signal
will be sent. If a Receiver is lost, the T-Link will route the alarm to the backup receiver
(if programmed).
Receiver 3 is used for local logging. Any signal sent to either Receiver 1 or Receiver 2 will also be sent
to Receiver 3.
Important Programming Sections
[003] - Ten digit T-Link Account Code (0000FFFFFF). This must match the MAC address in your Verified
Response account.
[004]-[005] Encryption Password (32 Hex characters max.)
Default: None
Once programmed the T-Link will use this data to encrypt and decrypt all receiver and DLS
messages. The user can program a value from 1-8 bytes long in each section. To disable the
encryption, program both sections with zeros.
[015] Receiver number 3. Static IP address for the third receiver.
Default: 000 000 000 000
Program the IP address of the Verified Response Platform.
[016] Receiver number 3 Gateway
Default: 000.000.000.000
This is the IP address of the local gateway the T-Link can use to connect with the third receiver
(WAN network). The IP address of the gateway must also be a valid IP address for the local
subnet.
[017] Receiver number 3 T-Link Source Port Number.
Default: 3066
[018] Receiver number 3 T-Link Destination Port Number
Default: 3061
Change to 6000
Sending signals to the platform via Email
The following is an example of the information contained in an E-mail from the T-Link module.....
From: T-Link 123456
To: recipient@emailaddress.com
Subject: T-Link v1.0.30; 123456 Event Report
Body: #6789|[Nri0/LS000]
The account number in the subject line is the T-Link's account number. The account
number in the message body is from the originator of the signal.
In the above example, the originator was the panel connected on the PC-Link with account number 6789.
If the T-Link would have been the originator, the account number in the message body would match the account
number in the subject line.
If Contact ID messages are received from the panel, the e-mail will be sent as:
From: T-Link 123456
To: recipient@emailaddress.com
Subject: T-Link v1.2.xx; 123456 Event Report
Body: 6789s1s100s01ss001sMedical
The text length will have a maximum number of characters that will be equal to the
longest Contact ID message. A space will be inserted for every “s” above.
[028] E-mail From
The ‘E-mail from’ option is used for the ‘FROM’ field in E-mails sent out by the T-Link
TL2XX. If the option is not programmed (all 0's) then the ‘from’ field of the T-Link TL2XX
will look as follows:
T-Link AAAAAA - where A is the account code of that T-Link TL2XX.
If this option is programmed with any string, the value in the ‘FROM’ field will be programmed
in this option.
Both the ten digit T-Link Account Code (section [003]) and the FROM field should match the MAC address
field in the Verified Response Platform to get the best results.
