Went today to finish it, my own silly fault regarding no power from the Rio, it seemed I’d forgotten to connect detector power in my tired state Back there on Friday to common up the negatives Now is there a way to enable engineer access without entering the user code first? I know there is...

Completely slipped my mind Will do that tomorrow

It’s a CO72 normal non power rio I’ve connected the negative and positive from the old Redcare PSU that the 9600 used to power it, connecting via the terminals on the left hand side as well as detector power on that side too I’ll double check everything tomorrow With the keypad tamper, I’ve...

Done the upgrade today All went quite smoothly and I’m back there to finish it off So few little issues It’s showing both a keypad and Rio tamper Also, it can see the Rio but there doesn’t seem to be any power out of it to the smoke detectors, is there a certain way to get it going...

Excellent thank you

thanks for the replies, due to illness i will be doing it on monday one last quick thing, can i set 1 zone not to use resistors but a basic N/C? it's a flush door contact with zero slack on the cable i will figure out a way to pop resistors in if not thanks

Thank you much appreciated Been doing some research and from using them previously I’m aware it’s not possible to have the entry timer on keypad only Now they like to use the alarm overnight, and there’s an extension speaker right by the bedroom door What would be the best suggestion to make...

i wonder if it has a period of internal alarm after entry time out might be worth setting the alarm, and then triggering a different detector and seeing if the bell works

fantastic thank you didn't realise it would save the current config i'll write everything down regardless went for a look today, before i get started aye, gonna be a job and a half i reckon, nothing labelled in the panel etc but should be do able is there a way to have 2 seperate full sets...

is it worth upgrading it from it's current firmware? albeit the only issue i can see is they're wanting it putting in on Wednesday, don't like leaving the house without an alarm is it possible to upgrade it after installation? thanks

i shall be doing it properly don't worry i must admit i'm not sure, i think it's a Dimension 48, as it just says "Galaxy 48" on the end station it's running V6.9, is it easy to update it? i must admit i don't have any cables to connect a PC to the panel

they're Menvier M12's i believe and a could of Texecom's variety of ages, all seem to work fine not much of a job i'm looking forward to

Hi all got the task soon of helping out a family member they've got a Scantronic 9600 from 1991 which has been fantastically reliable until the last month or so started off with the Panic Alarm triggering, PA button not pushed and refused to reset even with the zone looped out, hence me...

Thanks for all the replies yes it is an unheated space, but that can easily be sorted with a simple oil filled radiator to run a couple of hours a day i would do a pump, but the concern i'd have with that is it feels like it may be unreliable if theres low flow etc hence the idea of a tank i...

everything seems to be fully turned on, as far as i'm aware it's 15mm the whole run, but i'm not sure as there has been changes over the years to the system so i wouldn't be surprised if it goes down to 10mm etc underground i think i might experiment with a tank, will certainly do no harm at...

Hi all christmas boredom has kicked in and i've decided to do something about the low pressure in the garage and outhouse so, it's mains fed but a very long run in 15mm pipe i suspect straight from under the kitchen sink to the garage where there is a sink and then carries on to the bottom of...

remove fuse from fused spur open panel remove backup battery reinsert fuse applying power back to the panel then either try 1234 or your code if it's crashed due to a bad battery that should sort it and silence it until a new battery can be fitted

Have you tried entering the code, scrolling through the faults and then trying to set? How big is the system? The 2-20 is relatively easy to reprogram and default so it won’t be a big deal Feel free to PM me and I’ll talk you through it

There’s a co alarm in the kitchen anyway The annoying thing is even when time comes there is nowhere really sensible to put the boiler other than it’s current location Hence trying to eek as much life as possible from it (no point replacing it anyway) I was just concerned fumes could enter...

Hi all Down at my grandparents house today and noticed this, never really thought of it before but surely this is really not allowed? They’ve lived there 20 years and whilst it’s never caused an issue is there anything I can do to mitigate any risk? I suppose the risk is also there of flue...
