Go!Bridge IP Communicator
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The
Go!Bridge™ IP Communicator (2GIG‐BRDG1‐900) provides
Internet
connectivity between the monitoring service’s Central Station
and
the Go!Control® Panel (requires the 900 MHz Transceiver (2GIG‐
XCVR)).
It
supports automatic firmware updates, provides interactive security
services,
and increases supervision using signal‐forwarding to the
Central
Station.
For
wireless communication with the Control Panel,
the
900MHz Transceiver Module (2GIG‐XCVR) must be installed in the
panel.
For Internet access, the Go!Bridge must be connected to the
local
network router using an Ethernet cable (not provided).
