Guessing myself Right led flashes? What's left led doing ? Red or green Is it in secure or insecure mode , as I thought one mode requires both fob and code in some sequence
-
I think Imran thought you were the customer not the installer and has confused the issue -
That would be my guess. but as factory standard the timer is usually too long. Have you put the com and n/c in series with the lock and power? I know its a daft question but I have no idea of your ability
-
Not used one. Is the strike time really short? Does the strike lock require the same voltage as the KP? Have you tested your findings with a multimeter? Is it just not wired correctly or some other simple mistake?

I have a stand alone KP500 only attached to an electric strike lock the com NC the key pad is giving the lock power, locking it i have programmed it, with fobs and a code when i swipe the fob or enter the code , the keypad flashes green and accepts it however the power does not drop for the lock the lock will of course open it I take the power off manually taking a cable out

Speech dialler on PSTN is obsolete I’m talking about an LTE enabled dialler that can phone the customer over 4G like the old way before the broadband went digital -
Obsolete item, I probably got some.... Somewhere -
Which is also what i was told on the tavcom mains compliance training. _______________________________________

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 -

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?

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.
