Thanks sparky, done. Turning op 53 off, also un-checks all op from 42 to 53.....is this normal? My apologies regarding the pir - according to wintex the hallway is already on "GUARD ACCESS":

Evening Sparky, The system was programmed by a friend, but he's on holiday until end of July/early August. I did watch him, but doubt it if I'll remember much Not sure what the sound bomb is connected to. But that was also working before and seems to have stopped working. The external bell...

Hi Europlex, I'd be happy to go the Keypad route, but would be grateful for some guidance as to what I'm supposed to be exactly looking for in order to diagnose this problem.

So what else could I check to diagnose this problem?

I simply scan the fob and that just brings up the option asking if I want to arm and I say YES. This is the bell box:- If you take a look at the screenshots of wintex I posted in the first post, there are a few errors it's showing, such as SYSTEM OPEN, UDL ACTIVE, COM 1 POWER ON. Also one...

Yes it does now and I've tested it twice. However the piezo doesn't sound at all. Also wondering why the bell failed in the first place? BTW, the piezo looks like this:

Thanks for your help sparkymarka. How do I do the bell/strobe test? Can this not be done via wintex? Also is piezo the little sound bomber speaker that you can buy separately? If so, I've got one of them and that too has failed.

Good morning everyone, My texecom alarm is suddenly playing up - no siren from bell-box and I'm hoping someone on here can help me figure out where the issue is. I left home after activating the alarm using the keyfob/keypad in the hallway. When I've re-entered the house, one of my kids ran...

I've already been checking out that website. I'm hoping now that I have a retaining wall, I can start from the wall and work my way upwards.

Hi r896neo, I just want to specially thank you for your excellent advice. After doing lots of other work, I am only now getting to the stage of creating the patio. Yesterday I have ordered Raj Green Indian Sandstone and hopefully it will be here sometime next week for me to make a start. I'm...

No worries buddy. I'll only put a tiny layer on it. Thanks for your help.

Sorry to bump this thread, but I would be grateful if someone could advise if I can use sharpsand if I've ran out of hardcore as a base? Thank you

That's fine mate, thanks. HSS tool hire have got one on offer, so I'll get the medium one for the weekend.

Hey guys, Just a quick question. I'm creating a patio and was wondering whether a wacker plate is really worth it or would I be fine with an existing concrete roller?

That's really appreciated endecotp. One thing I forgot to ask.... I haven't got enough hardcore, but I do have plenty of sharp sand. So could I fill the sub-base area with a layer of sharp sand?

Thanks for clarifying that. You guys are brilliant. Saved me a little bit of money :-)

Thanks for your reply stem. My plan is to put down weed sheet on the soil and then hardcore and then Indian sandstone slabs... Is that okay?

Hi everyone, Before I put the hardcore down for my patio, I was wondering if it's worth putting down a weed membrane sheet. Does it stop weed and is there any point in getting one? Thanks.

Thanks angleboy. I like that, but the disadvantage of that is that once it's installed, it's not portable to another location. The type that I was thinking of is something similar to this:- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/122381786942 But I would rather prefer one with a chimney, so that smoke...

Oh sorry, the size of the rectangle patio I am going to create is approx 35-40sq mtrs which will have sofas/rattan type of furniture. I'm looking at no more than £200 for a 360-degree fire-pit/chimnea which will heat all the people sat around it. I would like to get this sorted out ASAP in...
