Hi I need a full system. The main building requires 9 zones and there is an outbuilding within 15 yards of the main building which has mains power and requires 2 zones. I believe that for the outbuilding I need a wireless expander as I do not want to fit wireless sensors. The main building is suitable for a wired setup. I would appreciate some guidance on a suitable, cost effective control panel and accessories.

A wireless expander is to allow you to put wireless detectors onto a wired panel. (as a rule) it will not in itself wirelessly communicate with the panel.

 

I would suggest a hybrid panel, say a galaxy 2-20 or a scantronic with wired detectors on the one side and wirelss the other. But you may need more stable detectors on the wireless side. If so honeywell do a wireless dualtech for the galaxy range.
