  1. If it's not been serviced then it's not on contract. Therefore, you will be at the bottom of there todo list for today.
  2. I am not trying to put you off but when flashing it's critical that it goes well or you will brick your panel. If you save a few quid but you brick a panel it's not a good cost saving exercise. Also the flasher has been the same for years, even the older less powerful panels had the same flasher separate. I can only speculate the reasons for this, maybe security or cost are some of the factors.
  3. I second that. The programming port is for flashing only.
  4. Pete I have reported it. Will have to wait for an Admin to appear, Mods only make Tea and sweep up...
  5. Would facilitate more cowboy jobs IMO.
  6. A now blunt 4.5mm HSS bit makes a tidy job of that if I need to.
  7. Yep. No but it's new. Really? Was that the side by side catastrophic failure test?
  8. If it works? Plenty of Racal's, pad's and foil knocking about on maintenance here. Talking of blast from the past check out this playlist...
  9. 3.77 It still not clear, but they seem to be all the same hardware. You can buy spare units and program them to be whatever grade you need. Completely agree.
  10. I guess it depends on what your calling CS2300-R. Take your ebay example this shows a "CS2300-R" but the product part number is CS2412. It doesn't seem easy to tell which products your vulnerabilities relate to from these CS numbers.
  11. They are powered from a common supply and fuse anyway.
  12. Err, well unless on engineer reset, no.
  13. Have you reset the system? It's possible the battery charging circuit is faulty or has a blown fuse.
  14. The negative posts are obviously from individual experience. To each there own, not one panel will suit all installers for one reason or another. Some of the positives you mention are negatives for others.
  15. I assumed standard practice for CR's. After a number of 18-23 month failures you realise it's not worth testing them.
  16. It's 20 years old and most likely never been serviced in years get the system decommissioned or upgraded.
  17. A shed full of servers will do then?
  18. This is a fair point who wires plug tops to there new goods any more. The difference I suppose is isolation and competence, plugged in equipment can be isolated easily and without being competent. Arguments aside did you not get your answers to your three questions in post 2?
  19. 0.75mm flex is rated to 6A.
  20. Follow the manufacturers instructions and choose the best position with that as a guide. Post 2 was generic so advise would be the same upstairs.
  21. You need to contact your installer.
  22. It's double NAT'ed by the sounds of things. If this is the case there are a few ways to resolve. Remove NAT from one device. Correctly configure the NAT to stagger through the deivces. Or worse case option is to DMZ the first NAT device (useful to check for double NAT)
  23. If red is radiators then SW would not be facing windows from your diagram. However, I did say that the plan doesn't help. They cover 90 degree so it can be a waste in flat.
