Description

The Cellualr on Bus Module (COB) is an interface between the Control Panel and GSM Module via the RS485 Bus. It enables the positioning of the GSM Module to provide improved cellular signal for when the panel is installed in a location where signal is low. This is achieved by locating the GSM Module at a location with good reception signal.

COB supports

• 2G/3G and LTE plug-in modules
• Cloud connectivity
• MS reports (IP Receiver)
• Multiple socket
• Remote panel configuration
• Remote FW upgrade of main board and accessories
• Follow-me reports (e-mails) *
• SMS

Note: Refer to the Diagnostics section and perform the System and Transmission tests to determine between mounting the COB Module in the B5
Box or in the Light SYS Box.

Installation

Preliminary Considerations

Insert the 4 spacers in the holes on the COB Module

Mount the GSM Module on the 4 spacers attached to the COB module.

The COB can be mounted as a separate unit (B5 Box, Model PROSYS B5) with its own plastic housing or as a module inside the Light SYS Box
(Model RP432B) main enclosure. To determine the correct installation to perform, refer to the Diagnostics section.
The Bus communication with the Control Panel is established through a wired RS485 Bus.

The COB does not support reporting by Voice

a) Insert the 2 upper holes on the COB Tamper for LightSYS Housing (Model: RP432TMPCOB) into the pins on the LightSYS box.
b) Slide the tamper mechanism (from the right) onto the placement struts and click into place. Following installation of the RP432B LightSYS box on a wall, make sure to secure the back-tamper switch with a screw. c) with the GSM Module mounted on the COB module, insert the 2 upper holes on the unit into the pins on the LightSYS box, as shown.
Note: When installing COB Tamper for LightSYS Housing (Model: RP432TMPCOB), you must replace the existing sticker and in its place paste
the sticker 5STN2872 included in the kit.

Note: All switches must be positioned before powering up.

Diagnostics

It is required to activate tests for system diagnosis to determine whether to use the supplied backup battery or power supply.

System Test

Perform this test to receive the level of the main panel’s backup battery and the installed power supplied expanders.
Go to: installer Maintenance menu → Diagnostics → COB → Main Power – Press OK to start the test; the result displays:

• Move battery Dip Switch to ON
  Note: After a battery replacement/removal, it can take up to 4 minutes for the trouble to restore/appear and for the battery voltage level to be updated.
