Infinite Prime are 1-way

I can only assume with a low battery the communications between devices goes a bit hit or miss like when you have poor signal on your radio, and the panel/receiver see this a jamming.

to be fair the first time I had a jamming fault was after I let a low battery go all the way to jamming fault. walked in and set my hard wired devices off, but wanted to see what happened and I still had protection. But the low battery was logged for a long time before it got to the jammed state.
as for timings never had a 7 minute wait either, after setting everything up complete the commissioning of the mesh using ricochet monitor to monitor the status, when its 100% complete, then do my walk test, always wary that those near foot traffic may have been activated and sleeping.
as for modes I always leave in the default mode they were learned on as that's what was recommended seem to recall years ago putting a quad in hybrid mode threw a wobbler I am guessing that's been addressed a long time ago now. Change batteries every 2 years seems to work fine.
always awake permanently on
auto sleeps for 3 mins after being activated
hybrid I believe is on when the system is armed and if you get the rotating line it represents the devices being started up
You will be surprised when after 3min and your PIR still will not respond. Put an auto PIR on with chime and see the results.

The armour is for protection not stopping EMF.
should not be run together and segregated as they are different voltage bands, unless all cables are rated for the higher voltage band.
all your cabling should be installed to BS7671

Also don't forget the standard wireless PIR's have a slow pickup response.

Hi isecurity
on the auto setting the PIRs didn't seem to "wake" at all. I seemed to wait a long time but may have got impatient/frustrated. Will try on auto again before trying hybrid.
As i said the time is between 3-15min before the detector becomes active again in auto mode.
When I tested, i was getting average 7min.

Quads/PIR's should be Auto, Dualtecs hybrid, Impaq Shock/contact Always awake.
PIR's become active after 3-4 mins, this is to allow the wake poll signal to be seen, saves battery life.
3-4 min is wrong.
Just put all your PIRs into hybrid, this also saves the most battery life.
-
You can leave them on always awake.
-
When in auto mode the detectors go to sleep for 3-15 min after detection, however the system is set.
for best results put them in hybrid mode, asleep when not needed and awake when set.

Confused ?
If you have programed a Dimension then a G3/G2 will be a walk in the park !

I'm intruigiued, this panel 'Honeywell lesucre wireless system' does it have main to that small keypad or bell?
Ask as I had a survey this weekend with the same system!
I would avoid Galaxy as my prerference go with Castle!
It's all wireless and none of it can be wired. The only one with mains is the little control panel thing with sim card in, which has a mains plug in adapter.
Why would you avoid Galaxy ?
-
Unfortunately there will be no cables to disconnect or reuse as the picture shows the Honeywell lesucre wireless system. I'm not sure but I think the wireless PIR & door contacts can be used with the galaxy wireless range but fitting a pro panel is not for the DIYer.

I thought guard access will cause full alarm condition if entry/exit timer has not.started. ie for a hallway pir. As the front door is not going.to be opened shouldnt it be programmed.as.timed.entry/exit zone
If you have a read of the manual it states a Guard Access zone will start the part set entry timer when system is part set. I personally use entry/exit 2 attribute and never had a problem.
-
Are you remembering that it will go to sleep for 3min... when your testing it?
-
Your down stairs hall PIR needs the "Part set" (1,2 or 3) attribute removing and the "Entry/Exit 2" attribute adding.
Your installer should be able to do this in around 5 min or if you have programed it yourself you need to look in the zones section of manual.
-
James is closer and we also cover your area but it would be 2-3 week until we could fit you in.
So if your still stuck give me a bell.
-
The customer should have a filtered master face plate, so your connection to the voice part will not require any filters nor do the telephones.
-
Does Texecom have a range tester ?
No
-
It may also help if you use the wireless bell units.
I think you may have to try it and see what results you get.
-
I can't quote but don't all cables have to be mechanically protected under 2m regardless of the device?
If I'm wrong then it's a good future rule to go by...
Is that not a fire alarm reg ?
I would have to look but it's wine O'clock
-
No.
But you may need to make them look nice and if they/it is installed in an escape route then....BS7671 521.11 comes into play.
521.11.201 Wiring systems in escape routes shall be supported such that they will not be liable to premature collapse in the event of fire. The requirements of Regulation 422.2.1 shall also apply, irrespective of the classification of the conditions for evacuation in an emergency.
NOTE 1: Non-metallic cable trunking or other non-metallic means of support can fail when subject to either direct flame or hot products of combustion. This may lead to wiring systems hanging across access or egress routes such that they hinder evacuation and firefighting activities.
NOTE 2: This precludes the use of non-metallic cable clips, cable ties or cable trunking as the sole means of support. For example, where non-metallic cable trunking is used, a suitable fire-resistant means of support/retention must be provided to prevent cables falling out in the event of fire.

Thanks, but I need a pencil style contact but with a small/ flat magnet, I don't see one listed.
?
Most of the page are pencil style contacts. Have you clicked on any of the products listed to see images.

Zone omit
in Regulations & Standards
Posted · Edited by Simlec
Depends on the fault been omitted, but as I read it yes they can omit most faults.
Do you not have access to bs 50131-1 ?
