  1. You marked zone 1 as kitchen door and front door , perhaps that's what he meant by dropping one off that

    And you mentioned two keypads one in kitchen and one in porch , some keypads have a zone available onboard texecom I think so you could run off those instead of cabling back

  2. The current panel I think is a basic Texacom (?)

    There are NO magnetics on any of the external doors, just a few internal PIRs.

    I might consider glass break etc, and possibly the speech dialler at a later date, this is why I'm considering a higher specification panel so I can extent/upgrade in the future....

    Whilst I'm no expert installer I just want to be sure that I can set-up a Galaxy panel in the typical residential configuration (doors and PIR's only)

    thanks

    Read up on eol wiring , and perhaps get a galaxy g2-20 with cp38 prox keypad, as said above cheap to buy and will give you more upgrade options if you decide you need to

  3. If companies advertise they are insurance approved , it means all there installs should meet the requirements of having a certificate , urn or not, so a piece of paper to certify every install shouldn't matter

    I assume inspectors can select any install to check if they wanted ?

  4. Al-Yeti "...Whoever asking is talking rubbish.."

    Thanks for the reply, in response to your question ... I am asking.. I am asking a perfectly legitimate question in my original post.

    Hi Mr Happy, your quite right I do have an uncle called Arfur.

    You said your lecturer was asking, now you changed the story again.....

  5. "....all this stuff here in the forums is just chit chat and opinions?..." So no irrefutable proof then.

    "....You do realise professional advice is paid for..." But you just said it's chit chat and opinions.

    "...OP why are you being evasive?..." I can't for the life of me think of one reason for being evasive, nor can I point to any post where I am being deliberately evasive, Why would I do so, I have stated the views of a lecturer in electronics and look to yourself and fellow professionals for concrete evidence to the contrary, I have no intention of starting a war here, if no one can offer irrefutable proof then we'll drop the subject... but check out some of the evasive and sometimes personal replies Norman, viz;

    "....i can only assume whoever is asking the question over and over again is somewhere on the autistic spectrum..."

    What you mean "irrefutable proof then."?

    You want a circuit diagram and explanation of how it works? Whoever asking is talking rubbish , what's irrefutable ? And about any device and what it does? Unless we say all manufacturers are basically talk rubbish?

    Electronic s boffin should think about it himself as he would know how and what circuits do to component level,

    What's his qualifications please?

  6. You had irrefutable proof in post 4. You walk around the house on a 2 way system, leds on DETECTORS do not light up as you walk round, then put the panel in walk test and walk round and leds on DETECTORS light up now. If this is not clear proof the panel is signalling back to the detectors to activate them then i can only assume whoever is asking the question over and over again is somewhere on the autistic spectrum.

    Only if it's two way

  7. "....so how is that 2 way?.."

    I didn't say it was. On the contrary, these are not my remarks they are the comments of the electronics lecturer outlined in the original post, where he maintains that there is not two way occuring in a standard wireless system, anything I insert thereafter is not my opinion but rather a portion of his original comment..I am merely seeking the advice of this site's experts. The question is in the opening post.

    Now you changed your original statment from some saying "two way..." And now your saying standard wireless

  8. I'm referring to the Texecom ones here, as Pyronix ones are on all the time.

    ? Texecom and Pyronix (& prob Honeywell) are two way as the panel requests information from the detectors (signal, battery info) and then sends it back when you or I request at any time. If it was 1-way then you/I would have to wait until it polls the information.

    If it was one way, what you means , "polls the info" one way means there is no info in some cases???

    On most panels I know, why do the leds only light up in walk test? This alone is proof that the detectors have received an instruction from the panel.

    Yes talking about two way panels, one way panels don't do this
