Intruder Alarms

Is the powermax PRO in stock the new version with new motherboard and more memory and true split partitions?

What is the differences between the CQR FW/GD04 Communicator (GSM) and the visonic GSM-100? Are there any other gsm-modules that are compatible with the pm+? My pm+ controlpanel is bought in sweden, will I have any problems if I buy any of the gsm-modules you have from UK? Will the sms-messages still be in swedish?

Which hardwired detectors (PIR-movement detector, magnetic contact, siren, smoke detector and siren) are compatible with the powermax+ unit?

Hi I was looking at the MCS-710 siren and in the features it says "Requires Rev F or later Control Panel". How do I know if I've got one of those? (I have a Swedish control panel)

how do i clear an error - it states z03 alarmed - living room and says 'alarm in memory'. i also have a s01 tamper/open error [its the back pin i think - box is fixed back to pebble dash wall and the pins clearly not pushed in.] - not sure if it can be adjusted - instructions arent that clear... if i sort out the external box, will this then clear the issue/problem i have with the living room and allow me to set the alarm??

Hi, Will I have any compatibility problems if I buy the controlpanel (powermax+ or powermax pro) from sweden and all the sensors from UK? I would like to have the speech and text in swedish. Could I even mix my setup with sensors from sweden and UK? Does any of the powermax(+/pro/complete) controlpanels support swedish language? regards Olof

I have recently changed a Optima compact Gen 4 panel as a favour for someone. The first panel that was bought through Amazon had a fault on it. A second unit has since been fitted and all is working except the new Siren which is a Reson 8. The unit comes with pre-fitted links across TA TAMP and PA. The manual states that these should be in place when powering the unit up. This contradicts some advice on online instruction that says to remove the link to T A when wiring the siren. The external siren does not sound or flash when an alarm is activated, internal sounder in board works OK and all zones work fine on a walk test. No LED,s in the siren are vi…

Hi! Bought a Visonic Powermax+ alarm from you and have run into some problems regarding master installer code and installer code. The problems shows on both the central unit and the keypad unit. When I installed the alarm, I (of course) changed the default codes to my own. However, as far as I can remember I only changed 2 codes where off one being the user code and the other one either the master installer or the installer code. Now I can't seem to access the alarm using the other alternative of installer codes. I would be glad if you could give me some hints to where I've gone wrong. The setting and fault behavior right now are as follows: 1. When first changi…

Hi. After installing a new accenta mini today i was ready to power up. connected mains but on connecting battery connections i saw the battery fuse blow. I checked all wiring, found to be correct and changed the fuse, connected battery and again the fuse blew immediately. I then disconnected all wiring from the system, i.e. bells and detectors, so it was 'as arrived new' and again, replaced battery fuse, powered mains and connected battery and the same thing happened again. I left battery & fuse out and powered up from mains. Alarm seemed to be working ok but i then noticed smoke coming from a resistor above and slightly right to the battery fuse, so i…

Hi my home has been fitted with a scantronic 9651 system, it has p.i.rs in all down stairs rooms. The front and rear doors have surface mounted contacts. When I set the system and leave via my front door the alarm continues to beep and will not arm once I close the door. This has happened before and I was advised to replace the door contact which i did, this solved the problem until now! The same thing has happened again I have checked the contact and everything seems to be OK with no loose wires. The contact is grade 2 with a small circuit board inside, it also has a small spring tamper mechanism. Can anyone help? regards Steve

Subject says it all really: I've installed a Scantronic 9651EN-43 into an existing "wired" house and extended the system using the Visonic MCT-302/MCR-308R wireless system. I've linked the Visonic zone output into the 9651 zones and also linked the anti-tamper into the main loop as well. The Visonic can send a low battery warning and I need some suggestions as to how the 9651 can handle this? Obviously, it needs to bring the warning to the home owner's attention, but it can't prevent setting the system or set off a full-blown alarm if it occurs whilst the system is set. Many thanks for your assistance!

Hello. I

Have Risco removed the ability to show the status on the LCD keypad? I've made sure that the Keypad is installed onto the system, but when I go into the Programming Custom Screens menu, It shows LCD Status = None. When I say NO, it just moves on to LED Status, and doesn't give me the option to change the setting to Full (for status always on) or Set/Unset which it always used to!! Is there another setting I need to alter first before I'm allowed to change the "display the status" setting?? Any help appreciated

Hi Does anybody know if the external sounder in the Pyronix Enforcer Kit3, ENF/KIT3-UK, needs a power supply? It looks as though it is just battery powered from the description. I know some of the other Pyronix sounders require power when they are lit after dark. Can anyone confirm please? Thanks

Hi, I've never actually used one of these systems before but I've got a work colleague that's recently purchased one from yourself s. three quick questions 1. Is there a cheaper alternative third party keyfob that is compatible with this system that will talk with it, I'm guessing it's probably the same as a Honeywell galaxy g2-20, or visonic powermax where you have to use the manufacture branded keyfobs? 2. If they purchased the WIFI module I understand there's apps available to monitor and control the system remotely but could they also use the apps available for there phone so it works in the same way the keyfobs do?, would this include a simple set/unset …
