General Information
The LTEM-X Series Communicators utilize the latest
LTE technology specifically designed for loT device
s to communicate
with AlarmNet. The LTE CAT-M1 technology provides im
proved power efficiency and signal strength undergr
ound and
within buildings. LTE CAT-M1 is available everywher
e that current LTE networks reach with strong enoug
h reception for
consistent connections. If, for some reason, the LT
EM-X communicator cannot establish a data connectio
n over LTE, it will
attempt to transmit over SMS.

The LTEM-X Series Communicator, herein referred to
as the communicator, easily connects to your securi
ty system's
control panel and sends alarms and messages to Alar
mNet for subsequent transfer to the central monitori
ng station. It
can be mounted directly on the control panel or rem
otely.

The LTEM-X Series includes the following models:

LTEM-XV (US, Verizon network)

LTEM-XA (US, AT&T network)
Features


Reports fire, burg, and status message.


Simple programming using the 7720P programming tool
or via the AlarmNet 360 website.


Uses 2 way ECP communication with the control panel.



Sends reports in Contact ID format.


Supports remote control of alarm system via Remote
Services feature.


Allows uploading and downloading of control panel d
ata.


Fully powered (primary and backup battery) from the
control panel.


The LTEM-X is for control panels that support ECP c
ommunication.

NOTE
: The control panel treats the communicator as an E
CP device, so ensure the control panel is programme
d with
the communicator’s device address.
Supervision and Fault Detection


Network communication failure – In the event the Ala
rmNet network does not hear a supervisory message fr
om
the communicator within a specified time (“Supervis
ion” option, 24 hours, 30 days, or none), AlarmNet n
otifies
the central station of a communication failure.


Communication path failure – In the event the modul
e detects a communication path failure, a trouble c
ondition
is sent to the control panel. The failure is consi
dered a true fault when the fault time has expired
("Cell Fault
Time" option) provided it has been set to a non-zer
o value. Notification can be sent to the central st
ation upon
this expiration via the control panel’s alternate m
eans of communication (if available).

Data Encryption
The communicator uses 256 bit AES (Rijndael) encryp
tion (which is required for certain government inst
allations). The
AlarmNet-i AES Encryption Software Module Version 1.
0 contained in the Resideo products has NIST approva
l.
Listings for this approval (Validation Number AES 74
9) can be found at:
https://csrc.nist.gov/projects/cryptographic-algori
thm-validation-program/details?product=2576
Remote Services Features

UL

Remote Access has not been evaluated by UL.

Resideo offers secure web based services that enabl
e users to remotely monitor and control their secur
ity system. These
web services enable
users to:


Monitor and control their security system from a we
bsite


Receive e-mail and text message notifications of sy
stem events


Control the system and receive confirmations using
text messages


Monitor and control IP video cameras
Dealers can enroll their customers for "Remote Serv
ices" by using the AlarmNet 360 website. Once enabl
ed, the specific
programming fields associated with these features c
an be programmed into the communications device eit
her remotely
using the AlarmNet 360 website or locally using the
7720P programming tool.

E-mail notification (Multi Mode) is intended as a c
onvenience for the user and does not replace Centra
l
Station reporting of critical events (alarms, troub
les, etc.).

Testing the System
After installation the security system should be te
sted. Refer to the control panel installation inst
ructions for procedures
to test the entire system.
Compatibility
The communicator functions with any control panel t
hat utilizes a Resideo ECP bus and supports a commun
icator.
Compliance
This device has been tested by ETL to meet the foll
owing standards:


UL985 – Residential Fire


UL1023 – Residential Burg

Mount and Wire the Module
Select a Mounting Location
When choosing a suitable mounting location, underst
and that it must be mounted indoors, and for best s
ignal strength it
should be mounted vertically. Signal strength is v
ery important for proper operation. For most insta
llations, mounting
the unit on the control panel provides adequate sig
nal strength and we suggest that this method is tri
ed first. Especially
if the control panel is not in a basement location
or in an area that contains large metal objects.
If the control panel location does not provide adeq
uate signal strength, then the communicator can be
mounted remotely.
Verify Satisfactory Signal Strength
This procedure checks for satisfactory signal stren
gth at the communicator. You can temporarily power
the communicator
from a 12V battery or from the control panel's AUX P
WR terminals. In buildings where reception may be a
problem,
powering from a battery would allow the communicato
r to be portable. The following procedure assumes
the control panel
will be used for power. (If satisfactory signal st
rength is present at the control panel that is the
preferred mounting
location.)
1.

Ensure power to the control panel (both AC and batt
ery) is off. Open the enclosure and connect the EC
P cable
connector to the communicator. Connect the cable wi
res to the control’s ECP terminals. LTEM-X Series Installation and Setup Guide

– 5 –
2.

Turn power on and wait for the communicator to init
ialize*. Position the communicator near a suitable
mounting
position. Verify the SIGNAL LED (green) lights ste
ady. This indicates satisfactory signal strength.



*
LTEM-XV Initial Power Up
: Upon initial power up, the
communicator LEDs blink in repeated sequence from t
op to
bottom indicating network initialization.
Green (REG)

Yellow (TX/RX)

Red (FAULT)

Green (SIGNAL)
This sequence may take up to 15 minutes.
Do not reset
power during this time.

During the final stages of initialization, the Gree
n REG LED
lights solid while the Red FAULT LED lights solid o
n or
flashes rapidly (if module not connected to the con
trol panel
ECP).
When initialization is complete, the Green signal s
trength
LED lights solid (the yellow and red LEDs may also
blink, per
their respective functions).
After initial network setup, subsequent resets or p
ower ups
can take up to 90 seconds.


3.

Verify the SIGNAL LED (green) remains steady for a
few minutes, then mark that mounting position. Tur
n
power off.
