So id wire pos and neg...then a b c and d?

Double pole is six wires...

And you still wire terminals a and d?

O/C O/C

Any idea how i can set a capture p15 pir to double pole?

They are double pole unless it's a plus. If your an installer you can get the manual on Texecoms website, that covers panels after 2000.

Hello! Im use to installing premier elite, its been a while since i came across a veritasr8. Ive been instructed to program the zones. The client has 2 zones, can someone guide me on how i program zone 1 as entry/exit and zone 2 as guard, Im guessing its also 2k24k7? Thanks

Ok makes sense I just wasn’t sure if taking it off the system would mean it was out of action but if the battery goes low and could cause interference with stuff then I’ll just get it off. Just wish it wasn’t so bloody high

TIAS? There is no guarantee a siren with a working battery even if un-enrolled isn't going to trigger at some point in the future.

In installer mode I can see the siren, what if I delete this from the setup. Won’t that mean once turned off it won’t do anything as it’s removed

In theory the bell should only sound for 20 minutes and then stop. I would not recommend leaving it indefinitely though these things have a habit of going wrong at the least convenient time. That said I would recommend removing it all at the same time, if it hasnt been serviced in a while ho knows what it may or may not do

Agreed you do need to get up to it and remove it

Fully working systems when the external siren is disconnected from the control panel this will trigger the siren. You may find it doesn't but to decommission a system you would usually get up to the siren. These things are not designed to be defeated easily.

Just trying to work out a few things and wondering how straight forward it would be to completely remove my visonic powermax alarm. It’s hard wired to a fuse spur next to my fuse board. the landline is hard wired into the unit too I think. I have the installer code. What I’m not sure of is, if I open the control panel and remove the battery backup then turn the power off will the external bell siren be set off. There’s no way I’m going up a ladder to the bell housing. I think it has a backup battery in it. So I would just like to leave it where it is for now. Or can I disconnect the bell housing siren from within the installer mode

Agreed most of the DIY stuff is not very good but it depends on wether the the type of burglar you are likely to get is not very good too. If you are only likely to be targeted by smackheads then DIY is probably fine so long as you walk test it regularly. If you have stuff worth stealing then you should be looking for something a bit better.

Most DIY stuff is junk and no better than what you have but with a shiny app. Proper alarm gear with an app most of them are subscription via a registered installer, this gives some guarantee it will work in an alarm condition.

Hello and welcome

be cautious what you choose and avoid the diy ones

Thanks for your prompt replies

Replace the PCB But at this point if your that confident install and ion 40 which will give you have control
