About the Activation Application

Icontrol Proprietary and Confidential 1

About the Activation Application

Use the Activation Application to activate a new security and interactive services system or manage an

existing system.

The application has three navigation paths (install, manage, and replace) that guide and direct you

through your chosen task. (Cellular-only security systems do not support replace.)

To install a new system, see "Installing a New System" on page 2.

To manage an existing system, see "Managing an Existing System" on page 25.

In the case of installing, the Activation Application walks you through wizards to install and configure the

system. Once you complete the install wizard, the Installer Application's Manage Devices screen appears.

Here you can add and manage devices, and test the security system. To manage an existing site, after

you have activated it, simply choose the Manage an Existing System option to open the site's web

portal as the site owner, and there you select the System tab's Manage Devices button to open the

Manage Devices screen.

Installing a New System

Icontrol Proprietary and Confidential 2

Installing a New System

These instructions provide a streamlined process for activating a new security and interactive services

system.

Before You Begin

Before you begin the activation process, ensure that you have all of the equipment and tools you need

and familiarize yourself with this document. The information provided in this document is designed to

help you avoid pitfalls as you perform the activation.

This document presumes you have already physically installed the security panel according to the

standard installation instructions.

Security Panel Configuration Requirements

Install and configure the security panel according to the standard manufacturer's installation

instructions. Program the sensors into the security panel and perform all other security panel installation

steps (such as installing sirens, customizing security panel settings, and so on), as directed by the

security panel manufacturer or security service provider. Keep a list of all installed sensors, including each

sensor's type, zone name, and zone number. This step is not described in this document and is assumed

to have been done prior to performing the activation steps in this activation guide.

Information You Will Need

URL for the Activation Application

URLs for the web and mobile portals

Installer access code for the Activation Application

Master access code for the security panel

Customer's account number (for example, the billing account number; generally, different from

the central monitoring station account number), email address, and postal code

Central monitoring station (CMS) ID, if the site is being monitored by an alarm monitoring service

List of all zone numbers, zone names, and sensor types installed in the security system

Miscellaneous Requirements

One short Ethernet cable (3-6 feet long – for use during IP camera setup).

Power strip, if additional outlets are required.

Paper-clip (for resetting cameras, if necessary).

To prepare for the installation, gather all of the required equipment, tools, and information on a table or

other large surface near the intended location of the security . The other parts of the system can be

located elsewhere on the property.

Activating a SimonXT with a 3G Universal Communicator

You can install, configure, and activate a SimonXT security panel with a 3G universal communicator

(3GUC).

High-level Activation Steps:

1. Physically install the SIM/3GUC into the security panel (see the SA 1100 Installation Guide doc-

umentation).

2. Activate the SIM/3GUC with the cellular service provider.

3. Select a configuration profile and manually enter any customer unique identifying information.

4. Boot-strap the SIM/3GUC by pushing communications configuration information from the pro-

visioning server to the SIM/3GUC.

5. Activate the Icontrol service.

If you are installing a reporting only (no interactive services) system, you do not need to

activate the Icontrol interactive services.

If you are installing an interactive services system, you need to active the Icontrol inter-

active services, and then later you can install devices.

You perform the SIM/3GUC provisioning and activation using the Activation App.
