What are the power requirements for a DSC Touch?
Measuring panel voltage is a common troubleshooting step when experiencing odd behavior on a panel. Most often, this step is required when there is a Modem-Panel Comm message, or the panel is not communicating properly with Alarm.com.
Voltage cannot be measured for a DSC Touch using a voltmeter. Verify the power supply has the required voltage. The following table displays what the recommended voltage is for the DSC Touch:
| Panel power requirements | 12 VDC |
|---|---|
| Alarm.com module power requirements | 12 VDC |
Wire size and maximum length
It is recommended to only use the default power cord that comes with the panel.
