luggsey Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I had to replace a disabled guys Visonic remote gear the other day, he uses a remote to open his doors with. Trouble is the new Visonic remote is tiny with recessed buttons making it very hard for him to use. I can't find out if you can still get the chunky round ended remotes with the raised buttons anymore. Anybody know if they still do them on the 800 MHz band?

charlie6 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Have you contacted Visonic, they might already have something. I realise his problem, I need to use a large button mobile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luggsey Posted August 6, 2015 Author Share Posted August 6, 2015 I already asked my local Adi but haven't heard back from them yet. I Google for a picture of the single button remote but found nothing. He used to use a two button remote which I'm told is no longer produced so I had to use the four button, but, if the single button remote is the same as the old one I may be able to get him two of those?

charlie6 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Best of luck on that Luggsey, only wish I could help. On another note I'll be looking at your amateur radio forum later, hope it includes common or garden CB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petrolhead Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I'll check if i have an old one kicking around. You could see if chubb community care has any left at blackburn or if they binned them, they used them as remote door controllers on old grey box concept warden call. There wer dozens on the shelf a couple of years ago never getting used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luggsey Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 Yes that's the type, my phone won't let me open the picture box to look at the pictures of the box which will reveal the frequency these are on. I suspect they will not be 800 MHz though....

sixwheeledbeast Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 say 868 on PH's link, these a much more modern than the items I thought you wanted (old square stuff sprung to mind) Exactly, what I was thinking. Visonic make all sorts in 868 that should work, all Powercode I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
