Hi,
This is confidential information in order to access and reprogram the alarm.
How can we share it safely?
Cheers!
You shouldnt be sharing it, you have no way of knowing who you are sharing it with. You could be passing info to a burglar for all you know. Its why we have a trade area where we have screened members and we can be confident that trade members work in our industry

Hi,
Anyone still interested with this?
I have something to share.
Please ping me.
Cheers!
You cant reply till you've made five posts. If its something you want to say just say it we wont judge

why did you not put the original poe where the splitter is?

Hi all, fully realise that this is a very old thread, but I'm looking for guidance on exactly this topic!
@DaveDave - what did you do with this in the end please? I also moved into a new build with a 9751 and all sorts of door and motion sensors, and I'd really like to somehow use them in a smarter system so that I can get alerts when I'm away, and integrate with my wider smart home system etc. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Jase
You could just change the panel for a smarter panel, it depends on how clever you are really. If you are running home assistant or similar, then yes you can integrate some panels using I/O units, if you are just using phillips hue/ Alexa and crossing your fingers you will need to rethink

I've taken the front cover off the keypad
Graham,

Your first statement worries me, get a pro in

Hi there I too have a problem assigning my new proximity tags to a new system. I’ve followed all the instructions to assign a tag to a user and it say to hold the tag near the keypad and nothing happens. Ive been through all the menus and can’t find anything else that relates to enabling the proximity reader. The remote control fobs won’t link up either. Any thoughts ?
As Alyeti says it could be any number of things, what model panel do you have and what type of prox fob genuine or compatible? Scanny wont work with any 125khz fob the it needs to be Manchester Format which are seldom found on the Chinese compatibles

Do you have any links to documentation for this make / model? Such as a downloadable service manual. I'm reasonably technically minded.
Sorry as we have no way of vetting people that come here therefore, we are unable to provide engineering manuals for panels, for all we know you could be someone looking to compromise a security system.

This one looks cute, is it possible to find one with a calibration cert?
I think we called them and asked for a calibrated meter pay a bit extra and the cert comes with it

Apparently the solo stuff fits the pole

found a cheaper smoke tester, but I have loads of them https://www.firedetectionshop.co.uk/p/detectahead-dh1and-detectapole-dp1bundle/

No Climb seem to have the market for Fire test equipment. I suppose in their shoes I would do the same. I would think it is a small market so nobody is keen to take them on with their own alternative. There are Chinese alternatives but they are not closely similar. I think I will have to put service charges up on Fire and buy more kit

Ive seen those ones theyre even more expensive and they only take little smoke test canisters. Many people on FB are complaining that they are more expensive o run as well as more expensive to buy

The Chinese one looks a bit pants , seems to use a filament bulb

Thanks very much for your welcome and response. I have the instruction book which tells how to set up a part set so I could do that but the instruction book doesn't say how to set up an "AREA", (which is an amalgam of zones) which is what I want, it simply says I need an engineer. Unfortunately there are no Abacus guys still working I think who could tell me how it's done. From the instruction book I think I can get access to the engineer code because I am the "main user" and this would allow me to set up an "AREA".
No you cannot program the panel without he engineer code
-
Ive been looking on Alibaba to see if there is a Chinese copy, interestingly they have one made from a lightbulb in big cup thing. I assume that the bulb gets hot and sets off the heat.
Im thinking I could just replace the element in mine with a bulb holder and bulb, If I can fix the original I may give this a go and see if it works

Will ask the question tomorrow!
Ask him both questions please, I dont mind paying
-
Hi and welcome, you would need the engineers code in order to change anything that isnt already set up on that panel. Have you tested to see if part set has not already been set up?

The Testifire one issued to me at G4S was £1400.
The fire guy at has one apart at the moment, he seems to know what he's doing, if theres anything I can ask him for you Pete?
Can I send him two to fix? LOL Seriously how do you get the middle bit with the fan and heater element out?

never took one apart, shock to see how dear they are,
I'd wait to for ebay/ facebook stolen from their former employer set to become available....
theyre still incredibly expensive
-
Anyone successfully repaired one or got one apart at all.
I have two now keep blowing fuses I removed the MOVs onne to see if it was those but it still blew fuses theyre £600.00 a time if there is a known fix than its a big saving

Hi. Have changed BB provider and now can't set alarm remotely as is permanently says not polling cloud. How do I change BB on the alarm system please?
You could just set the SSID and password the same as your old router, or call your installer
Well we have hit a new all time low (verisure problems)
