Did you ever sort this?

I think you need to change your country code to 044 to get it back to English UK. It's under 'Global System Options' - 'Timer' and on the right hand side in Wintex. Not sure how to get to it on the keypad but it will be there somewhere.

Not a texecom engineer but fitted my own. If you haven't got the com wifi yet then don't waste your money, it's been discontinued and won't work with the current Texecom Connect app. What you want is the smartcom, works with both ethernet and wifi. If you have the engineer code then its fairly...

What make is your DVR?

How many PIRs do you need? Wired PIRs are pretty cheap. You already have existing wiring that you could potentially make use of. It's up to you, your house and your money, but having had a wireless yale before and my current one it's a no contest for me. Yes you can, but expect the bellbox to...

Are you moving all the sensors or just some of them? If you're redecorating then potentially could you run new cables? You can get hybrid wired and wireless systems. You don't necessarily need someone to install it for you, I installed a wired Texecom alarm myself without having any prior...

I'm with Iamchamps, you already have the wires so why not just replace it with a wired system? With a wireless you'll have batteries to replace every few years.

Will this work with a premier elite? I can't see why it wouldn't but just want to check.

I'm not a security installer... There are alarm junction boxes, which you can use to help extend the cable. If you're using magnetic surface contacts then you just need two wires per contact, but that depends on how you have your tamper set up. Are you using the global tamper loop or...

This doesn't help you, but your post reminded me of this... Warning contains swearing. As to your predicament... What about a cheap smartphone plugged into a charger, connected to WiFi and the headphone socket connected to speakers sufficiently sized for what you want. Install the zello app...

Hmm I don't think my driver is underloaded, it's a 60w dimmable driver, the max load from the led strip is about 43W. At the moment I just have a normal switch attached to it, not a dimmer.

Thanks for that! I thought my led strip light was flickering but wasn't certain. This gives a possible reason for that.

Hi I would appreciate your suggestions or help on this. I have a Texecom Premier Elite, which I would like to program for 3 scenarios... I'm thinking of keeping the house sensors in Area A, and the seperate garage in Area B (it has its own keypad). The keypad in the garage will be allocated...

It was purchased as such, but now i'm wondering about that. Here's a picture of it:

I think you've answered your own question. ;) You'll need a USB cable as well as the flashing interface.

I'd look at it in a slightly different way... Why do you think you need to flash it? Does a new firmware offer any features you want to make use of? Have a look here if you want to find out more about what the latest firmware offers: http://www.texe.com/uk/news/

Great thank you!

Hi, I have a double pole light switch which is wired to a twin and earth 2.5mm cable. I want to connect an led driver to this cable. The driver is a dimmable driver, so at some point I may change the switch to a dimming switch but not to start off with. What would be a sensible way to connect...

Thank you all and apologies for taking a while to reply back. I went with the Texecom Premier Elite 24, it seemed a little more diy friendly, manuals were easy to get hold of, plus with the USB cable it seemed like there was more for me to play around with! I've ordered it but haven't...

Hi, I've already put in 8 core alarm cable around the house, I was going to get an alarm fitter to put one in, I have a quote for a Honeywell G2 which seemed quite expensive, but I think I can do it myself. I want a wired kit with a PSTN dialler, i'm not that fussed about key fobs (wouldn't...
