My mother a VERY old system installed at her house, that no longer works, so rather than spending money on fixing up the old system, she has decided to get a new system.
I have an old Gardtec 816 control box and remote keypad that was removed from our house when we moved in, and I've been told that all the settings have been returned to default, including the engineer code.
Looking inside the control box, it all looks pretty straight forward - tamper and alarm zones etc. In her house, there's only going to be five alarm zones, so hopefully things will be pretty straight forward to do, bearing in mind all the cables are already there.
The thing that really confuses me, is wiring up the external sounder. The old sounder that's currently there, is old and doesn't work at all, so we're going to remove that and replace it was a Reson8 box from Screwfix (don't laugh, but they're only down the road and are easy to get hold of!).
In the panel, I have the following connections...
Strobe +
Strobe -
Bell +
Bell -
Bell Hold -
SAB TMP
I'm not sure what connections are in the Reson8 yet as I haven't bought it, but is anyone familiar how to connect up this panel to this sounder?
Any help much appreciated.
