deece Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Hi All I going to install a Melcom AD1000 Voice Dialer to a non Melcom contorl panel. The wring looks straight forward but Rather then using the Bell - to trigger I was going to use the Bell + and change the Voice Dialer settings to take 12v. The reason for this is that Melcom has supplied a 1k resistor which they state needs to be connected to the Bell + and Bell - if using a Bell - trigger. I no expert but would this casue issues with other items connected to the Bell + and Bell - such as the Bell Box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deece Posted July 11, 2008 Author Share Posted July 11, 2008 The control panel is a Response PW600Plus which I think is an ADE control panel re badge "Optima compact G3" althou it is 7 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Largerking Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 The control panel is a Response PW600Plus which I think is an ADE control panel re badge "Optima compact G3" althou it is 7 years old. If its the optima g3, the bell outputs should be labelled T, A, D, B, is this correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzz-lightyear Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Hi, Hope im not butting in but....... No need to change trigger options as terminal B is a negative trigger for your dialler, and im not sure on this resistor but if the instructions say use it, use it.

Rulland Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Hi, I would say use the resistor as suggested-reason being that some 'sounders' will do strange things if their inputs are not held solidly + or -, I had a panel with a SD1 attached using the bell neg and until I used a resistor to pull the output down the sounder made very unusual noises.

deece Posted July 14, 2008 Author Share Posted July 14, 2008 Thanks All I fitted the Dailer with resitor and no problems. Seems to work fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
