I have. I’ve got it working, it was a schoolboy error on my part. For some reason I got it into my bed that EE was the keypad so I wired it into there. Of course I should have wired it into data and clk. I’m embarrassed to even write that!
Nah no embarrassement
Good job

HiI’ve finally been able to wire this up today (new extension was delayed). But I can’t get it to work. They keypad buttons are illuminated and they beep when pressed, however none of the LEDs on the left are illuminated. Also, entering my user code does nothing, apart from the key beeps.
Can anyone suggest what I have missed? I didn’t understand the reboot comment above so I have not done anything besides the wiring.
Original keypad was address zero so I have set this to address one.
Many thanks.
Jim
Reboot meaning disconnect mains and battery , reconnect mains and the battery in this case

Agility is one way wireless, surely two way coms would be required for a panel to tell a bell its in engineer. In the same way it would tell detectors its armed. Im not saying your wrong, but why would manufacturers make a wireless system that disables the bell in engineers and not make a hard wired one that does the same. After all you only need 5 of a 6 core cable to wire an sas so you have a spare if you only use 6 core. Not that I would use it though its sound too much of a risk.
Very few would do it though, too much faff and another thing that could go wrong, with serious consequences, nobody wants a failed to operate on their hands.
Ok but it's possible
I would always wire it in but leave it dissed at panel for my own use , but then don't use those bells much anymore , shame it's not a standard feature on all bells

Generally this is correct you can't open a siren without triggering it, but it will all depend on the system and it's condition tho.
Faulty, poorly installed or wireless may react different.
Engineers mode would disable internal warning devices on tamper, however wired bells (SAB) are self activating, it's in the name.
Galaxy? Or similar using delta with tamper disable connection to an output when in engineers mode , sure it will disable the tamper ......

Loads have chucked it but for whatever reason, not passed it on?
Data's probably wasn't worth much beyond a web address, telephone no & a list of names ?
Not even the names sell these days, telephone number web address ? Maybe still small change in grand scheme of things

Wow, thanks for that. You found cheaper stuff than I did, well done.
Btw I didn't realise its showing not available, but for the sake of spi key just buy any key for dimension range they all the same , you just won't use the firmware that might come with it
On 21/08/2022 at 08:26, james.wilson said:i assume its the remote password in the panel, not the rss program password
How comes spi key not showing available

I'll have another sesrch for it. Yar, company won't pay for it...if I were self employed I'd just buy it I guess.
The latter just an extra tool , but you need all this gear if your going to continue
Although I can't see even dimension with a future , powerful commercial panel

Hi,
It told me invalid password or something of the sort.
Er..no...I don't get paid enough to just go and buy that kind gear unfortunately.
It's cheap and cheerful tho........ So company doesn't supply you with anything ? Or I guess self employed don't tool up
eBay then sometimes although just as cheap to buy it with updated firmware

Hi,
It's a 520. Our Engineer code is in, and we know the MGR code. Unsure about user codes, thats another reason I'd like RSS access.
I didn't do the panel take over, I was there as a revisit to service it...I just like to get backups when I can...nobody else in our company uses the RSS software or can be bothered...I just like to because I can, well usually can. Haha
So what's rss telling you when you hit enter?
And by now I assume you have bought spi key right ?

SMH...*rolls eyes*
I have connected to several Galaxys, I am aware that you ordinarily just use the blank password...it didn't work.
Thanks for your input though, very helpful. (I wish there was some form of punctuation to alert the reader of sarcasm).
Unfortunately I don't have the rs232 module or a dumpbox, or SPI key so can't go down that route either, which is why I was here asking a question. Didn't really fancy defaulting the panel just to take a backup...kinda defeats the object eh. But with the log showing a rogue/unauthorized remote access I figured the issue needs to be addressed.
So what panel is it exactly, you got picture of label please?
And your also not clear what codes you possess? User only ? Engineer? Master?

Hi,
Ex telecoms engineer, been playing the Electronic Security game for 2½ years now. Managed to bag myself a copy of HONEYWELL GALAXY RSS software and today encountered an ex ADT site. We took over the alarm 18 months ago, but I'd never been to this site until today. I thought I'd take a backup...turns out there's a password stopping me connecting. Worryingly, after I went through the event log and saw, several weeks ago, a remote rss session doing a database save, I can only assume it was ADT accessing a site that they now no longer maintain. Is there anyway I can bypass/remove/change this password does anybody know? Thanks
Unlikely has password tho
Didn't you just hit enter when it asked for password , or you got scared?
