    ADT Galaxy 12 v1.5 User Reset Required

    You need to get to the display -> zones menu and then select the faulting zone. It's unlikely that a reed switch (magnetic contact) would go faulty and cause a tamper. When they go faulty, they generally do not close or stay open.

    How to fully RESET HONEYWELL Galaxy G2-20 system; lost pin

    The G2 series does not have an on-board battery. That's the G3/Dimension you are describing.

    The top area generally stays a lot cleaner over the longer term too.

    pir on entry exit

    But for surface mounted contacts, best to fit at the top if possible. Less prone to being damaged/knocked by hoovers Etc. For timber frame bungalows, the top fit can be done very neatly by using a long 400mm x 8mm auger bit to drill up through the door frame, through the kit plate and into...

    ADT Galaxy 12 v1.5 User Reset Required

    A fault must still be present in the system. This can be anything from a damaged cable somewhere, water in the sensor, or a damaged sensor. If you have the user access rights - manager or master, then perform the following: Enter your code and press 'ent' Enter 21 and 'ent' Press the 'A>'...

    Galaxy RIO outputs

    No problem Josh. You'll find the Galaxy is a very reliable panel. Just replace the battery every few years and you should be fine. The battery is automatically load tested every night, so the panel soon lets you know if there's an issue with it anyway.

    Galaxy RIO outputs

    Okay, I think I have worked out your issue. You have the slave jumper open. This needs to be closed, then power cycle the RIO to pick up the jumper change.

    Galaxy RIO outputs

    Just to confirm that I tried the setup and can confirm that it works across all four outputs as expected. Some things to check: Check that your additional RIO is addressed properly on the bus. The LED on the RIO should have a short fast flash. Check diags menu 61.2 that RIO 102 is at...

    Galaxy RIO outputs

    Would be very unusual to be faulty. Did you buy it new or used ? I haven't had time to test the config for you yet. Will try to make time tonight.

    Galaxy RIO outputs

    Everything you are doing looks correct. I will mimic your ext RIO setup on the bench later to validate with my hardware for you. In the meantime, I would set the 4 outputs on RIO 102 to bell and then test them by enabling the bell test in order to check that the transistors are being...

    Gamma 868mhz wireless home alarm

    I only really deal with the Honeywell Galaxy range with 2-way RF. Never had any issues with them. If you want movement detection in an outhouse, then you need to go for wireless dual tec's which are normally more expensive. If you can stick to magnetic contacts for the outhouse, then it will...

    Gamma 868mhz wireless home alarm

    Look at the Galaxy G2 series panels + RF Portal + IP Comm's. You can self monitor over IP with line check polling and there's always loads of Honeywell RF sensors and panels available cheap on Ebay. You'll get a robust install for the same or cheaper than nasty foreign imports.

    Vortex Bell Box - Making Jig to Test

    The tamper return is a return signal to the panel. Normally this signal is pulled to ground (at the bell box) when the tamper circuits are closed on the bell box. Your theory of operation is correct. However, when supplying power to the bellbox, the battery needs to be connected and tampers...

    Galaxy RIO outputs

    What does the voltage do when no siren connected ? When you are checking the voltage, the keypad should be displaying "Fire Alert!" I just checked this out on output 1001 on a panel to ensure the polarity Etc. and it was fine. Ie. 12V when in alarm and 0v when not.

    Galaxy RIO outputs

    It's per output, but your issue would more likely be supply current to drive 4x400mA with a G2 panel and not the output transistors. A 16mA sounder shouldn't be a problem. Note that you will connect the sounder +V to the AUX supply and the -V will connect to the RIO output. The RIO output will...

    Please help.honeywell galaxy2.pyronix deltabell plus wiring

    If you have the siren wired as suggested with the 1002 bell symbol on the PCB wired to the bell trigger, then output 1002 needs to be set as BELL. It sounds like you have it set to 'SET' which is triggering the siren once set. If you are in engineer mode, then tampers are ignored, so...

    Galaxy RIO outputs

    The RIO outputs can sink 400mA, but you need to ensure that the power supply to the RIO and the cable length (voltage drop) are taken into account. If all is power supplies are sufficient, then set the RIO output to FIRE and it will do what you want.

    Comip setting up

    From Texes documentation: "The mobile apps are compatible with Premier Elite control panels V1.00 and above and Premier 48/88/168 control panels V8.14 and above." No mention of the 24. My understanding was that 24 wasn't compatible with the COM-IP. This was a while back when I invested...

    Yale Smarthome Alarm

    It's the security system part of these 'router box' based systems them that I'm not keen on. If you can integrate the Z-wave / LightwaveRF with a decent UK graded alarm (Honeywell, Texe, Risco, Etc), then that would be the best approach. Unfortunately, true protocol based integration into...

    Help me choose an alarm system!

    Galaxy: 1. G2-12 panel 2. RF Portal + 2 RF rolling code fobs (two portals if you live in a mansion) 3. Wired Keypad in the cupboard beside the panel, as you don't need it for set/unset. 4. Two way wireless sensors (dual tec wireless for the garage). 5. Low cost IP module for SIA based...
