I have 7 hard wired zones, soon to be 8 which ill explain in a min. I have everything up and running now, the app is working and the smart plug is working but it is certainly finicky and buggy. I have literally been messing all day learning its niggles and characteristics, many of Texecom's...

Speaking with a Texecom tech, I mentioned that under "System Requirements" in the Smart Com instruction manual it states "In addition if the system will be using any Ricochet enabled devices the wireless receiver should be V3.0.6 or later"......mine is V2.1.2. He explained that this is for...

Thanks secureiam (y). I have literally just sorted this now. I went in to the panel and set the com ports back to "nothing fitted" set the ARC 1 protocol to "Disabled" logged off then disconnected/reconnected the smart com. Went back into the panel and set the com ports/arc protocol back up as...

So today I installed my Texecom Smart Com to my PE 24 panel but have run in to an annoying problem. As this is a flash upgraded panel I connected with Wintex via USB COM so I assume a unique GUID was sent to the panel, I have checked this under engineer utilities and there is indeed a code...

Mmmmmm, yes maybe chimes through the night will wear a bit thin, don't think my GF would be too impressed :cautious: haha !! We do get some odd things on our drive too, was checking the cctv a few weeks ago as my car had picked up a mysterious scuff and four horses appeared and proceeded to eat...

Hi mate, firstly, I too am a total novice but managed to install a premier 24 myself so I know a little bit but nowhere near as much as some on here who I'm sure will easily sort this for you, I just think it's a settings issue. All I can say is try changing the zones from Double pole/EOL to...

Thank you :) I have ordered a Texecom TD-W wireless external PIR and a Connect Smart plug to operate the lights from my loft (yes i know there are FAR cheaper ways of operating lights) but I want it connected to my alarm as I'm also going to set it on chime when someone walks up my drive...etc...

Thanks for this, I contacted the retailer who confirmed they were continuous and perfect for CCTV. They recommended 2 x 30 watts for the area though rather than 50 watts so placed an order. Will post a picture when installed (y)

I'm no expert but Texecom Veritas CFB-0001 ? https://www.alertelectrical.com/texecom-veritas-8-compact-burglar-alarm-panel.html

Bloody spiders :mad: Only cleared web off other day :ROFLMAO:

Just taken a photo of my TV screen, this is my driveway

Nice one, thanks for the tip (y)

Hi, I've recently installed an Hikvision 4k turret camera (DS-2CD2385FWD-I/G) on the front of my house which connects to a Hikvision 4k NVR (DS-7608NI-K2-8P)...both proper UK spec, NOT grey imports. The front of my house is fairly wide, about 9 metres and about 8 metres deep to the road. The...

Ok, made some progress :D It took some doing and plenty of swearing but I have managed to flash the panel to v4.03. It took a good dozen attempts, for whatever reason it would start the flash and then mid cycle would fault saying panel not responding correctly, would try again and sometimes it...

Yes sorry should have added more detail in my original post. Will have another bash tomorrow and take some photos. Thanks for your help.

Many thanks for this, however, I have tried and as soon as I clicked on flash I instantly got an error message back saying something like no response from the panel. At work tonight so will have another try tomorrow. Would connecting to the panel with Wintex via the USB COM be worth a try? I...

Hi all, Just after a bit of help, I have tried to flash my Premier Elite 24 panel to the latest v4.03 firmware and fear the panel is bricked. It was on the original firmware from when I installed it some 3 years ago so was on V2.xx (don't know exactly). The reason for updating was to upgrade...

Hi, I own a Premier Elite 24 polymer panel and I am wanting to control some of my house lighting using the X10 outputs. I have started doing some research on what I need to do this but I am still a little bit unsure. Just wondering if someone can point me in the direction on what I equipment I...

Not that I'm aware of, the panel should come loaded with the latest firmware which is V2.11

Sounds like a good price to me
