Trade Control Panels

I've got a site with a 100 zone Aplex panel, all was fine t'ill this week then zones 1,4 and 51 started developing Short Circuit faults.. Thing is these zones aren't SC at all, and are actually within range at the panel.. (closed = 31 to 34).. Another strange thing effecting only these zones is that when opened they are all out of range (50 to 54)..? I have verified that with the detection actually removed that the zones all register Discon (readings around 84-88), and that with the zones wires actually shorted they register correctly as Short..

Anyone used the dycon panels. What you think we are thinking of using them due to all the features esp the fact you can talk to ARC or Engineer though the keypad.

Seeing as the Wisdom wireless bell isnt ready yet ive been forced to look at another wireless system with a wireless bell. Ive got the info and prices for CQR Freewave which seems to do what i need and that is basically "Price, and probably install this friday a wirelsss system with a wireless bell". Anyone used this kit? Any info regarding this product would be sweet as time is pressing clearly.

Anyone know what panel a Multiplex 100 keypad belongs to? Ta..

Hi guys, I may be installing my 1st ever Abacus "G3 version" Evolution soon; How do you lot rate this panel.? Any panel specific quirks I should know about.?

Grrrrrrrr just had murder with a customer. This customer has had a break in and the intruder has smashed the cpu not surpised where the last alarm company put the cpu in full view. Anyway the customer needs a new cpu and after explaining that this panel is now obsolete she isn't having it. Anyway any you guys know where I can go and get one new or second hand. The keypads fine but will accept one if anyone has one in case. Thanks guys

Hello guys. Can some one please help me I went to work on a take over now after my last post for the engineer code the customer had a wall replastered and the plasters took the DSC ICON KEYPAD off the wall but I can wire it up as theres no diagram or letters nothing at all to indicate which wire goes where.

Had a good meeting with Dave Armstrong from Coopers today a lot of ground gone over and some explainations as to certain problems with M750/800`s. Lots of stuff approaching our greasy paws and it looks like the tech sides being sorted too. So well done for approaching things rather than burrying heads in sand. PS Darren for the email i did reply.
