Have you set 4.6.1 GSM Installation to 'Installed' In the installation menu ?

can you use the other gsm module functions or is it just sms that fails?

The sim doesnt have a sim lock on it does it? Have you tested it works in a phone?

You will need to contact honeywell, it is only available to licenced installers.

Ravis, i think Bobs intention was to have the backlight illuminated all the time, not just during keypress's etc.

Id recommend the M12 detector here. Utilises 6 core intruder cable, is 12v and has a N/C relay. Is programmable for optical smoke/ fixed heat/ rate of rise heat. http://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=638

Also the spec of the resistor is relevant, you can use any that match that spec. I would suggest they are 4k7 not 47k. We do have packs of resistors for various panels listed. But as above i would of assumed a pack would come witrh the panel

BOb There is an unsupported way. The Accenta keypad uses 2 transistors to control the backlight. These can be bypassed. Obviously any pcb mod will invalidate the warranty and is not a security warehouse supported mod. Anyway I have attached a picture showing the location of the transistors.

MIght be easier and more stable to add a gsm dialler with hardwired inputs.

no if you use eol without pairing you will have 8 zones, but with individual tamper detection. using zone doubling would give 16 circuits

AGreed, i would swap the sensor with another room to see if the fault moves. If it did then i would assume the unit was faulty. Another test after that is to mask the unit completly.

Great thanks As you have a high security Grade 3 contact there it needs to be a little closer. As a temp measure for testing, remove the magney and temp affix next to the contact (ie right next to it) and it should clear. James

AS I have emailed the manual to your account address. James

That sounds right. Have you got the magnet correctly alligned? If unsure post a pic of the unit as installed with the door closed.

Don What colours have you connected from the contact to the panel?

As previous post let us know your order number and we can send an engineering manual. James

Good actions so far. Is it always the same pir? If so what room is it and do you have any stairs etc in view. The biggest problem with cars and pet pirs is them getting close to the sensor ie within 6ft or so. Is that possible? The cold can and does affect pir's but im assuming your house is heated so the temp will be pretty constant. Also with temp compensating pir's they would get less sensitive in a cold environment not more (its easier for the sensor to see body heat when its colder)

you will need to isolate the unused zones or leave them linked out. If you let me know your order number we can send you an engineering manual for the panel.

I concur with fastcar. Whilst you can wire more than 8 detectors from an accenta/optima it is not recommended and if relevant will not comply. ALso you will not be able to identify the detector that alarmed etc. Both panels mentioned (premier / galaxy) are fine panels. Depending on ultimate flexability req the premier is more powerful than the G2 range.

re the keypad issue. Is it working at all? If so which functions can you perform and which cant you. re sounder issue, how old is your powermax (ie what revision board / order date) as only later versions accept the fully wireless sounder. How many sounders do you currently have on the system?

Cazza. Are you sure you learnt the fob into the system? Its usually in cases like this the fob has not been learnt in correctly.

Could you posta a picture of one of the sensors wiring and your panel wiring. Sounds like you have left the EOL resistors in the sensors? James

The keypad will also emit entry exit sounds, but obviosly at a lower volume. The Eurosec comes with a small extension speaker that can be mounted seperate to the panel.

Zanub I can understand your frustration, but the Paypal Provide us with limited infomation. I have attached the screenshot for this order so you can see the infomation Paypal provide. As you can see it states the address is 'Unconfirmed' I have cancelled and refunded the order as they are telling you its confirmed and us its not. James

Id agree with your panel choice but the 2-20 will do sms messaging over its modem, but the g2-44 will also accept a gsm card. This is only usually used where a phone line is not available. But both panels can send sms messaging and digital signalling using its digi modem. I wouldnt buy the 2-20 kit but you could add a wireless portal to a 2-20. ie http://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1385 This is the 2-20 panel that comes with a built in proximity reader in the keypad http://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=192 Then you can add wireless detectors etc as required. With the galaxy 2 series once you add an rf portal you can use all 20 circuits as wireless. There are 12 circuits onboard the panel. If you use say 8 of the on board circuits that allows 12 wireless etc etc.
