Appears those are my only two options, although buying another PIR just to cover a 1msq area that covers the panel at the bottom of the stairs seams daft. My previous budget wireless Red Shield alarm lasted four years with backlight on constantly before I got sick of changing the battery's in...

Panel is at the bottom of the stairs and the landing PIR is at the top of the stairs going from one of the bedrooms to the bathroom you have to walk past the PIR so I don't think PIR part entry is an option. Will have a look into the display settings on the panel, would be good if backlight...

Can anyone help with the unsetting of night mode? I now have it set up so night mode is armed after the timer of 20sec ends. Perfect! Arming and un arming with a PIR isn't an option as there is only one on the landing and this isn't armed at night because it would be activated when going to...

Hi Steveo44, when you installed your pyronix alarm did you add a fuse spur to the power supply that went to the panel? Thanks

Hi sparky marka should the mains panel run from my main switch board via a fuse spur? I'm replacing my existing alarm that was hard wired to the switch board with this unit but once I flick power on at the switch board in knocks the RCD circuits off. So I thinking it might need a fuse spur? If...
