    Extended alarm cable not working

    Elite 24. No wireless expander (unless you mean comwifi). All zones currently used hence my thought of cancelling out the problematic zones which are 1 X PIR and 1 X door contacts and install a keypad/ ricochet on there and then I have ability to add everything I want, or have I misunderstood...

    Extended alarm cable not working

    If all fails I will just have to add ricochet. I remember that it needs to be connected to a keypadk correct? I already have 2 keypads but both in position where I wouldn't want to add a ricochet box. Can I just cancel the problematic zone from the control panel in the cupboard and add a...

    Aiphone LEF intercom

    I undertand, but if I have a unit wired as in picture 2, would that mean that it is the final unit on the daisy chain and I should/could wire from there? It would actually suit me better to wire star config. I originally thought the the system worked on a star configetration from under the...

    Aiphone LEF intercom

    Thanks. All are using 12 core Am I correct in assuming that the unit with just one set of cables is the last one in the series and I should be running the cable for next one from there? (It is actually number 2 but if I have understood correctly, the wiring is the thing that determines which...

    Aiphone LEF intercom

    Got a LEF 5C. Doorbell + 4 units with latch release. Now want to add another master to our extension. I understand that these are daisychained. I have located the unit with only one set of cable so that must be the last one. My questions: Is it correct that I need to run a cable from there...

    Reed door contact wiring

    Cheers. Situation is the other way around. There are no existing tamper cables, just two cables for the old contact so just checking that the reed's would work with just the 2 cables.

    Reed door contact wiring

    I would like to replace previous flush door contacts with reed type due to extention. Previous contacts only had 2 wires connected no tamper. Can I just connect the two wires to the reed and ignore the tamper connections? What is the best way to attach these to aluminium doors?

    I would like to position Texecom PIR sensor in a 6m x 6m room. In the manual there is an illustration of heights and seem to be max of 2m high, have I understood this correctly? Our ceilings are about 2.8m high.

    Bifold doors- contacts location

    I was thinking to use more appropriate contacts but with same daisy chain. Something like these? Please don't tell me that these are EOL and can't be daisy chained or something like that!!!
