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.

Just noticed you put the sensor in the title. Sorry about that C+ is the Latch Freeze inout E- is the LED enable FTA is the first to alarm link if linking multiple detectors.

Without Knowing the sensor its hard to say Id suggest that FTA is first to alarm. THis would suggest there is more than 1 sensor on the zone and the device is latching E- could be LED Enable - C+ i dont know. Risco quads are good units, i personally wouldnt always spec a quad in a domestic, unless there was a reason. Usually go for a good dual edge PIR

any of the wireless systems that have a pendant transmitter will do this. ie scantronic, risco, visonic etc. Depends on the full needs req on the system

No its not. You dont solder them, I think your getting confused with high secirty EOL wiring over double pole

The wiring for SAB's has not chnaged in some time. I dont know the 9200 but i would expect it to be fine. The thing to check is teh brand of bell.

Im not sure that risco make an orange lens, maybe its the red unit. If so you need a red backplate (XS3D) and an XS3D cover. The accenta's all support multiple outputs. ie you can trigger fire, pa, intruder on your dialler seperatly with the accenta. However the optima does not have these outputs. But you can wire the dialler trigger from the sounder output. This is fine if all you want to do is trigger the dialler everytime the sounder activates. Depends. You need to size the battery depending on the standby time required and system load. The compact units (optima and accenta) will only accept a 2.1-2.3 A/h battery. The Poly and metal versions will accept upto a 7A/h battery Not really. You need 6 cores for PIR's on a double pole panel such as the accenta / optima. You need a pair for power, a pair for alarm and a pair for tamper. While the system will function without a tamper circuit its not advisable as your detectors will not be protected when the alarm is disarmed. I have honeywell IS215's in my own house, does that help? Yes Tech Support

Well Yes and no The 402R is a low voltage sensor with space for a seperate radio transmitter So as it comes the answer is no. But if you add a universal transmitter to it (to suit the reciever) then yes. Tech Support

Ravi Id have to check the tech docs but from memory the excel has remote pc options and eol options. It used to be the excel was the lcd version. If you want me to have a good look re specs let me know. Also re the price. We should be cheaper as well as better value, are you saying we arnt? James

There are hard wired external PIR's that are suited to pet tolerant situations. eg Optex VX402 The Takex External Pet PIR and the risco watchout. Tech Support

The engineers manual are the same for all models of the optima/accenta range. Which one have you got? Also the AG6 manual does match the manual for the AG6. However the accenta/optima manual details the AG6 (older model) as having the ADE TADB connections. Unfortunatly the new AG6 does not have this marking. James

Not necessarily Ravi If there is a tamper alarm that cannot be reset due to the alarm still being present, then the unit will lick and not reset until the fault is cleared.

Might be best if you define 'best' Id say best was a VR DDA compliant BPT system but its certainly not cheap. Tech

Thats wrong im afraid AG6 ---- Optima R- ---- T V- ---- A ST ---- Strobe - V+ ---- D SW ---- B HOwever this wouldnt cause your symtoms. Its likly to be centred around the zone wiring either in the panel or at the sensors. Could you post pictures of each end?

Ravi as you know we have our price promise and have the lowest prices online. I will see if there is a little more but i belive there has been a price increase from scanny and as yet we havnt increased our prices inline with this. There have been a few manufactures lately that have announced price rises. re the prox unit. Its to do with volumes of units produced. This allows the manufacturer to make the higher volume parts at a lower cost. The optima outsells the easy set by approx 30:1 so that gives you some idea.

i would hope you havnt paid for the fitting if its not working! I agree with ravi sounds like its either not programmed, linked out or wired wrong. The led's on the sensor will turn on when the sensor activates. All this shows is that they have power. If he has not wired them into the panel correctly then they wont function as required.
