Intruder Alarms

The transformer has failed in my old alarm. Looking at the Veritas Excel. Is this a straight swap? To the new alarm panels come with the battery or will i need to get one. Regards

I moved into my current property and had an extension done to the building. As a result I haved added detectors (from SecurityWarehouse) to the alarm panel (Honeywell G2-12). However, when the alarm engineer attempted to access the menu, the code I was given was not working. Hence the engineer is locked out of the menu What is the best way to get into engineer menu and reprogramme the panel? any help would be appreciated?

I've just installed an Accenta G4 and have a problem using the set output with the latching option of the Texecom IMPAQ Plus detectors. The Accenta manual states that the set output is positive 12v upon successful set of the system and removed when a correct access code is entered. However when I test the output from the main board, it is 12v positive when the system is unset & removed once set, so opposite to what is stated in the manual. The detector instructions state the same as the Accenta manual for latching, positive when set, removed when unset. Is there a way of configuring this output or is it a fault with the Accenta as I can't find any reference to it i…

Hi - wonder if anyone can help ? Just fitted this system - all is well, except I want to be able to set a chime against a zone when the system is in set mode. No problem setting a chime against a zone when unset but there doesnt appear to be an option to apply a chime to a zone when set. Is there anyway of doing that ? Regards

Yesterday, I tried to plug the 8XE internal zone expander on my Premier 24, but it failed: the flash programming connector is longer than the expander support pillars. So it is not possible to clip the pillars. I can make photos if you need to better understand the issue. Please advise. Thanks! (I opened ticket # 24795 for that, but the answer was to ask on the support forum).

I wish to replace a Scantronic 9800 entry pad. Is there an easy replacement.

I am planning to replace an old intruder alarm system with all new equipment. The only problem I can foresee is the space available for the control panel (fitted in a meter cupboard). The existing panel is a GARTEC (h175xw210xd70). An ACCENTA MINI GEN4 (h200xw253xd55) will fit in the space available but there will be little room (approx 20mm) above and below the panel. My question is: How does the front cover of the panel open and/or how is it removed? Does it hinge (top & bottom) and will I have enough room to open/remove it?
