the system was working fine until we had the heavy rain. Did you have any power cuts? The power light on the panel is that flashing or solid. The keypad is separate from the panel? If yes then you would have an R8 or R8 plus and if an LCD keypad an excel panel, only the 8C and...

okay so network 2 expander 2 is being lost. the 32xp-w's is address 1 and 5 on network 2. This would take up addresses 1,2,3 and 4 for the expander as address 1. and 5678 for the 32xp-w as address 2. any 8xp's would override the So looks like there is an issue wrt to the first...

is your unset light still flashing or has the panel recovered now you have reset the trip? If yes disconnect the battery, if unset goes solid, its your battery that needs replacing, if the panel goes dead, you need to check that power is getting to the panel from the mains and through the...

same Hym sheet got to be true.... You can add a speech dialer/ text dialer but the R8 can only give you an alarm activation from the bell trigger wire, and Tamper or Mains fail depending on how the SW+ is programmed. Personally I would look at the premier kit as much as I hate agreeing...

Better to use r8+ or excel for the veritas/ excel lcd keypad. The veritas lcd keypad wont work on any other variant off the shelf.

http://www.wppltd.demon.co.uk/WPP/Wiring/UK_telephone/uk_telephone.html has some nice diagrams Do you know where the master is as that normally comes in to A and B and then go to an extension, the diagrans in the link should help.

Depends on the diyer. You can get help here as you have installed a system before shouldnt be a major problem.

have you checked your panels fuses you say that its okay with mains?? everything wakes up power cut and nothing, so suspect battery or fuse i would check first

Not hard would image there be a few alarms playing up due to battery problems after the Weather last night

Texecom have wireless pet friendly sensors the 12W kit comes with 2 compact wireless pet sensors I believe http://www.alertelectrical.com/prod/4519/texecom-premier-elite-12-w-complete-kit-geh-0006 How many zones do you need? You can still use com-ip and gsm modules on the 12W and it...

Premier 48 elite 1 x 32xp-w address 1 or 8XP-W price and flexibility extra £20 and you can utilise more wireless zones without having to add another expander. 1 x 8XP (address 4) This would give the 32xp-w addressed as 1 zones 9 to 32, and the 8XP would be 33-40, if you add another 8XP...

8xp is external expander which is for all What do you really need? Future proofing is interesting theres nothing to say the manufacturers dump certain things for some new wonder technology so impossible to future proof. It be better if Texecom made the gsm module capable if doing ip...

Have you thought about the com-ip module as you could use the phone app then.

If you are using contacts, they dont use any power. If they are powered shock sensors you need to work out the current draw for all the devices combined. the usb com lead wont be connected permanently so power wise you should be fine, but to work out your battery life you need to know your...

apparently the SAB and SCB triggers aren't inverted when you change the mode from the panel and I have been under the illusion they do. When I have measured them in the past could have sworn thats what i was getting. As the bells come set up for SAB, I have had it where I connect the system...

always good idea to retrace your steps when an action causes a fault glad its sorted.

SCB mode uses about 30mA from the panel rest from the battery at the bellbox end. Quiescent:18mA Strobe:100mA SAB LC SCB E Models: 285mA 160mA 30mA Non E Models: 405mA 190mA 30mA Total...

The system works suggesting all is well.. I am not sure what else to say. The panels and keypads have changed slighlty the changes may not be documented in the manual on every possability in general major revisions will have an updated manual. The panels available can be seen at the...

Things can go wrong with anything, the likelihood of a good, well installed and maintained (hard wired or wireless) system false alarming is low as I would suspect is a burglar using a radio jammer on a property they don't know. I wouldn't go for a wireless bellbox, especially if its...
