Richochet

Hello all

Have a premiere elite 48, firmware is latest , i have a wireless Expander (W 32) , and a wired expander ,

all has been working as required, i am now however struggling to add a 5th Wireless device.. when i go to the Ricochet learn. it says all devices learned..

and my wintex screen only shows 4 richochet devices for that expander,,

i have looked in Diagnostics and found that my 4 zones from 2 Keypads are shown under the 32 w zones 9, 10,11 and 12

all labeled devices are used , some i have taken off line as im renovating the landing at present,

Try mapping the keypad zones to 25 upwards or onto the unused panel zones if you are not going to be using them

Cheers Sparky, worked a treat, given me 8 zones now,, but why is there only 8 may i ask.. i assumed there would be more than 8

 

[secureiam]

because your hard wired expander is address 2.

there is a conflict, just like the mapped keypad zones.

On a 48 map keypad zones to 41 to 48 (as these are not used by the expanders).
Address hard wired expander to address 4
This should give you 24 wireless zones

it does mean some moving around of things but shouldn't be too hard.

Bit of an up date, completed commissioning, had a little struggle with the new bifold Micro contact polling. ive changed batteries and also changed the case for the deeper one.. as i read some time ago it helps with aluminium doors.. it seems to be ok now. ill Keep an eye on it all the same.
It wont be long before i fill the gaps on the panel.. the cables are there now for garage, porch etc i just havnt built the locations yet.
i just like the idea of the wireless contacts for windows. i have a little bit of OCD when it comes to cables on View..

Thanks again all.. for all your help over the past few years..
