PSE

Cant say I've ever noticed the service timer on a CP8, Its deffo on a CPX but I'm certain the CP8 doesn't

We use ICom F4200 VHF, get about 5 mile out of them in open terrain Perfect for huge industrial or commercial environment with loads of steelwork

It's not a Galaxy,

Totally missed the word Accenta, Saw the G4 bit. If it was onboard keypad, Which I assumed it was, It's powered by a LM7805 adjacent to the LM7812. Hence my theory of the regulator. As you say, if keypad is powered then it's something else other than the 7812 regulator

Voltage regulator Gone, LM7812, top right of the PCB. Test it with a multimeter, Centre pin 0v, Left pin 12v, Right pin 14-20v If it's in warranty, return it, or its Repairable for £2.00 with a soldering iron.

Just looking at the ACT 336L Lithium battery tester, Has anyone got one of these, And are they worth buying http://www.actmeters.co.uk/battery-testing/336l-3v-and-36v-lithium-battery-tester Regards,

He's said he has looked at the manual for it and cant find it, So therefore if it was a G2, he would of seen the silent part set option, which is the only option to him on a G2 4 wire. The earlier Accenta's have NO option for a silent part set, The later G3 & G4 range do, and its documented in the manuals He said that there was nothing in the programming for a silent option, This indicate to me its not a G2 as its covered in programming Therefore I would assume that must be an older ADE Accenta 6 or 8, or a later Honeywell equivalent G3 or G4 range Either way, Dropping the Sound wire on an older ADE Accenta version or the later Honeywell G3 or G4 works as I stated above

Model doesn't matter, As its Honeywell or ADE as it was back then, its not changed That works right back to the early Accenta 6 or 8 from early 2000 onwards, Audio is separate on its own core

There is no need to rip anything off If its a Honeywell Accenta, G3/G4 range or earlier, Remove the wire at the keypad from the terminal marked SOUND Voila, No tones whatsoever from this keypad

I've got around 300 or more mixed in the van, Might be time for eBay then.... Cash them in

Radio ? What have I missed

A 500mm piece of 25mm galv tube kept in the front of the van, Now that's a good persuader

They are fine until the staple hits a knot in the timber and flirts the staple into the cable, Even worse when you don't see the damage until you start chasing your tail when commissioning

I've had a direct account with CAME for years now, Our discount has been said to be above some wholesalers, Regarding the ZA4, I've just checked, We do pay less than my earlier post above. We do get good prices as we go through a good amount of parts.

Nothing to do with an airing cupboard, But I do have a few stories, First one, About 14 years ago I did an intruder install on a separate garage at the top of a guys garden, Routing and clipping cables around the roof timber, I disturbed a plastic Woolworths carrier bag, So I picked it up to move it. Though to myself, This does not feel quite right, I know what this is... Opened the bag, It was a loaded gun, an old one with the spinning barrel on it. Chucked it right back, did the job and said bugger all. Needless to say, Earlier this year he was charged for letter bombs and attempted murder on the news. Second one, (One I will never forget & My Favourite) Must be about 10 years ago, We did a large amount of student accommodation places with very basic intruder alarms. You go into the house, Each room is a separate persons room and shared kitchen/bath etc. Anyway, We got most of the cabling for the install but when it the external ball, We needed to get the to the front bedroom So I knocked on. I $hit you not, this young fit as bird opened the door to let us in, As we started to move a couple of items about, another girl got up from the bed, NAKED and started talking to us like it was normal. They were a pair of lesbians, There were some weird looking objects on the floor and an image that sticks in my mind of a double ender LMFAO, I'm sure we all have some great stories but these two have to be the ones I can most remember like it was yesterday

Youre looking about £45.00 for a ZA4 board
