:shock: OK Guys, have your fun or take the p*** if you like , but their is a business opportunity also ! Here are the true facts:- * There have been 7 break-ins within 2 miles since the attempted one on ours earlier this year. * 3 have significant damage to doors/windows plus stolen...

Final connections to sounders & Power -up. Thanks very mch for your past help. Along with CCTV the full External system is now installed, with just the final wiring of the sounders and powering up + programming to do. Summary :- Texacom Excel Panel, 7ah batt and RKP Tex 1 Box - run...

Thanks for your last post aptsys. To avoid any confusion on my part, can you clarify and help with the following please. I am about to order some items and just needed to confirm whether the 1381N works on its own, or needs a back up battery fitting inside (suggested size if poss). ...

Thanks Europlex Would it be feasible/possible to power the sounder itself from a seperate supply to overcome the limited life of the internal Lithium battery :?:

Thanks for your 2 replies Europlex. Still considering the 1st. As far as I can check, the existing Lithium batt in the sounder is 6V 11ah. Looking at the Installation manual I wondered whether the EWC connection on the panel holds the answer, but I can't quite figure our the full solution...

Thanks aptsys The Elmdene looks good value. According to the above figures I would need to provide a min. extra 303ma power. If the Elmdene (or alternative) were used, with not having a wiring diagram, I am trying to visualise: what connects to the main control box and what connects to...

I Would like to replace wireless JA-80A Siren with a hard wired Sounder. 1. the wireless version does not have warning leds and 2 its battery life is problematic. Will the panel drive a hard wired version and to which terminals should it be connected please. :|

Thanks aptsys and Europlex I'm not sure where to look for the correct type of extra PSU, is there any chance of a "link" please to point me in the right direction.? Could this extra PSU deliver the power supply to the extra Sounder boxes, just leaving the Main control panel to do the...

Thanks Can you suggest where I can find a suitable circuit diagram and spec please.

Thanks aptsys The extra boxes above 2 are only required for "Strobe and Flashing led" deterrent value. I only actually need 2 as sounders. Is the Veritas best choice ? I don't know, it seemed to have the extra power for 6 keypads so I assumed (may be incorrectly) possibly that it may have...

What I was not sure about is: 1. whether it causes the control panel any harm or problems recharging the internal sounder box battery on 1 or 4 extra units, or is it that it causes the panel no harm - but just takes 4 times longer to charge. (Similar to a car trickle charger on a small or...

Thanks Denford I am shortly due to purchase and like the look of the Texacom gear, the PCB in the sounder seems well specd for weather protection. At the moment I only have access to a limited amount of sales info about the Control Unit so was unaware of this. Good of you to let me know...

Thanks Alarm Additional sounder boxes that I only need to function as "Strobe and Flashing led". Can you say what connections on the box I should use to do this. ie I do not want the sounder on boxes above the first 2. ? Thanks for you help.

Thanks aptsys Does this mean I just bridge the connection to feed the strobe with the same feed as the sounder, and ignore the dedicated strobe feed connection from the control panel?

Dear All I want to set up my system with Excell Panel and 2+ Odyssey sounders (+extra boxes for Strobe and Led functions). As I spend periods away I do not want Strobes to continue after Sounder has finished. How can I wire to achieve this please.? :?

Thanks for confirming these points Europlex. Can you give details on the wiring and setup to achieve this please. If it helps, quote a specific brand or make. Cheers.

Thanks for the info on mirrors. The last illegal entry was in broad daylight 2.30pm, which is why I am leaning towards a siren/sound alert/alarm since lights would not be visible during daylight hours. Can you or anyone help with advice on my 3 questions at all please.

I hear what you are saying about IR beams and I can see that they will cover a large perimeter area. The idea is excellent. The problem I have is that due to the slopes and uneveness of the site, beams won't bend to stay at a constant level above ground, hence in some places the beam will be...

Thanks for the additional input. Can you provide answers to the 3 questions please anyone. As I said earlier regarding the Cams, I am trying to assess their triggering characteristics for recording, not for raising the alarm. Both the Cams and the PIRs would be sharply focussed to the...

THE DETAILS OF THE SITE I have several environmental difficulties due to:- a. The property is built on an irregular shaped site , sloping downwards with terraces in places and slightly sloping sideways. b. It is a 200sq mtr single storey, which is approx "L" shaped with several...
