Trikdis G16 4G GSM smart communicator

The Trikdis G16 4G GSM smart communicator works with Paradox, DSC and other manufacturers' alarm systems, communicating directly via the data bus (DATA BUS) or serial port (SERIAL PORT).

Data is transmitted over 4G LTE mobile network to the monitoring station and user via the Protegus 2 mobile and web application or by SMS. The communicator allows the alarm system to be remotely armed or disarmed from the owner's mobile app.

The Trikdis G16* and G16T communicators are excellent replacement for the Paradox PCS250(G), PCS265LEU and DSC TL405LE GSM modules.

What does Trikdis offer?

• Reliable operation
• Free Android, Iphone and web application
• * Connects directly to the control panel - this is a unique feature that nobody else is capable of
• Remote control (arming / disarming)

Alarm control panels connectable via data bus or serial port

Die Trikdis E16, G16, GT, GT+, GET are compatible with all the alarm control panels listed below . The main advantage of these specialized Trikdis communicators is that events are transmitted via the data bus or serial port.

Alarm control panels marked in blue can be controlled directly (arming/disarming) via the serial port or data bus, without any additional wiring.

Alarm control panels marked in black receive events via the data bus or serial port , but require key switch zones and additional wiring for full control of the alarm system .

You'll Need a Cable for Connection

If the E16, G16, GT, GT+, GET communicator is being connected to a Paradox alarm panel, you'll need a cable that can be connected to the CRP2 serial port as well.

If you're connecting it to a Texecom alarm panel, choose the CRP4 cable!

Connection to Data Bus or Serial Port, What Does This Mean?

In this case, the communicator is practically taught to understand the alarm panel's own language (one-way communication). Just like operators or other peripheral devices, the communicator sees events and will transmit the appropriate information according to the settings.

Direct Control

In the case of directly controllable panels, the communicator not only receives notifications from the panel but also a part of the functions available on the keypad becomes accessible (bidirectional communication).

• Activation / deactivation of the entire system or partition using a user code
• Detection of zone statuses
• Zone bypass
• Automatic mapping of partitions and zones

The mobile network communicator comes with a basic ANT01S GSM antenna as standard.
