Keypad on Galaxy Flex 20 only shows ********
PeterJames replied to Bram de Vries's topic in General Security & Fire Queries
If you know what you are doing you could, but I wouldnt advise it if you know nothing about alarms and you dont have anyone you can call, or spare parts. The keypad is used to control the system, if you down power and power up and the keypad still doesnt work you wont be able to silence it. There could be a number of reasons why your panel has done this, if it hasnt been serviced in a while all the batteries will be u/s, it could be a cable has been damaged it could be the keypad has died. Post where you are (Town) there maybe someone on here able to help Galaxy is a well loved known brand and most good engineers know it even if its not their weapon of choice nowadays -
Thanks for these replies it gives me something to go on. I’m going to speak to Alert Electrical today and mention this

Keypad on Galaxy Flex 20 only shows ********
Stijn replied to Bram de Vries's topic in General Security & Fire Queries
Hello, I seem te be having a similar problem, yesterday my alarm started displaying the same issue. Only it had been working perfectly for the past 5-6 years. The problem now seems that my installer seems to have gone out of business and nobody want to touch this old thing. I'm capable of doing a reboot (disconnect mains and battery) myself but am wondering if this wil have any influence on the problem. Regards Stijn - Yesterday

You do you are correct, but I was comparing apples with apples, only my apples were much nicer than the apples that the OP was suggesting, those are only good for pig fodder. With my apples you could make one of those lovely lattice apple pies, or a nice cool glass of Cider, or just eat them as is. Yep you could have it monitored and the SIM would be included in the package, or you can just buy a PAYG SIM or add another SIM to your existing Mobile package
-
But you still need SIM card? From maintainer? -
Id swerve both of those and go for something like https://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/intruder-alarm-equipment-c-36/remote-signalling-c-36_57/pyronix-v2-gsm-speech-dialler-with-automation-control-p-2428.html Im surprised that Pyronix didnt recommend the above as an option, I say surprised but Im not https://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/intruder-alarm-equipment-c-36/remote-signalling-c-36_57/eaton-universal-4g-speech-dialler-p-6447.html

a digi-gsm would send texts.... if you can get one
-
Does that app itself allow SMS? I assume it's a free service he is using ? If your going to pay for an extra SIM with that many alerts it's pointless, cheaper to get better monitoring and have that included

This looks promising if it can connect to the Pyronix Enforcer https://www.adk-security.com/products/gjd-gsm-sim-card-speech-and-text-dialler-gjd710?srsltid=AfmBOor9YHxvd_Mb-zjWJH_uijVtXaf_wqwdDIbAhtQDxnqguhvVzir_ GJD 4G GSM Sim Card Speech and Text Dialler (GJD710) https://www.adk-security.com/products/gjd-gsm-sim-card-speech-and-text-dialler-gjd710?srsltid=AfmBOor9YHxvd_Mb-zjWJH_uijVtXaf_wqwdDIbAhtQDxnqguhvVzir_

I also had a look on Google and it says: Yes, a 4G speech dialer can indeed call a mobile number. These dialers are designed to alert you via phone call or text message when an alarm or event is triggered, and they can certainly send alerts to mobile phone numbers. Here's a more detailed explanation: 4G Technology: 4G speech dialers utilize 4G cellular technology to establish a connection and make calls, similar to how mobile phones work. Alerts: When an alarm or other event is triggered, the dialer will automatically initiate a call or send a text message to a pre-programmed list of contacts, which can include mobile phone numbers. Flexibility: These dialers are versatile and can be used with various alarm systems and other applications, making them suitable for a wide range of situations.

Thanks mate. He’s using the app but doesn’t keep his mobile with him most of the time. Pyronix say I can enable an ARC to receive alerts via the DIGI-WIFI and then they would call him What do you think?
-
Needs upgrade to app etc, in short no
-
Pyronix Enforcer (unknown model V10 or V11) until I visit site Customer wants to know if it can dial out to various numbers when there is an alarm activation like it used to do before BT moved his landline for the BT Hub onto digital If you have any products you recommend I would be keen to have a look thank you

With installation of course experience counts, it separates the wheat from the chaff. On call and servicing is a different story, logging into a panel and isolating a fault isnt rocket science. Walk testing, checking panel voltages, batteries, monitoring, and sounders is also relatively simple. Fault finding also requires a bit of skill, common sense, understanding of circuits, and detection. Experience helps a lot, it can halve the time of a breakdown when you know common causes, and less common causes.

Why is this industry so difficult to employ in

Experience counts I like your guys access control techniques no door is a problem as such good jobs -
Glad to hear your actually using part set so many people dont.

MrHappy replied to PeterJames's topic in Security Job Requests and Vacancies
all staff are superstars who should be paid 80k all subscribers think an alarm is £300 -
The problem as I see it lots of people think this industry is easier than it is, the chap that came today couldnt even wire a 3 pin plug but thought he could become an alarm engineer, it would take a lot lot longer with him than a person with some basic knowledge, as you have teach the basics first. On the other side of the coin engineers think its much harder than it is. They seem to think that it takes years of experience to do their job. Yet many competent diyers can install a half decent system (not as good as a pro but a working system). I reckon that it is possible to teach someone with a tech background to do this job in 3 or four months. Yes experience makes you better at what you do, especially so with breakdowns, but the minimum requirements is all thats required for servicing and to go on call.

MrHappy replied to PeterJames's topic in Security Job Requests and Vacancies
One day I'm going to sell up & get a proper job on the tools. I reckon I could walk into just about anywhere working with just about anything (fire/security) & be the equal of anyone already working there ? -
We had an engineer hand his notice in, I found a replacement, but he seems very needy before signing up, £5k more than he is being paid at the moment, van with aircon, halo ladders, he wants to see a copy of the contract. I put out an advert and got only potential trainees applying. My newest IQ test is to give people a 3 pin plug to wire, I discovered that some of these people are a danger to themselves wiring earth into the live (surely a fuse gives a clue). I sometimes envy the smaller co's I need 6 engineers because of the callout. I can use subbies for install work but not to cover callout. If it were not for that Id only use subbies life would be so much simpler.

Another Premier Elite Question.
Dave Walton replied to Dave Walton's topic in !!..DIY Installers..!!
Ah......I see......, thank you.... So guard access covers both options.... As a DIY'er I haven't really much experience of a panel that has as many programming options as this has and thus I'm very grateful for the help and advice offered from the good folk on here. Your help in sorting this out for me is much appreciated. Regards, Dave.
