  1. No, newer keypads are square although if you are 100% comfortable with the whole DIY thing, an older 9330 LCD keypad would cover the exact same space (esp. if the existing keypad was a newer 9827) and work even with a brand new 9561PD or a 9571 9853 etc.... However you would almost certainly be buying that 2nd hand, although new unused ones do turn up on ebay from time to time. Our advice is always to get professional help / installers, although any DIY questions are welcome on our forums too.
  2. Hang on, there is the NVM change to try first! This will require a complete reprogram though which is best left to a pro, and we can't give out engineer manuals I'm afraid. But to be quite honest, this is an old panel and a nice new LCD display such as on a 9651 or a Euro Mini etc... would be a huge improvement.
  3. 9800 or 9800+ if showing 'LB' I wonder if the power cut has cooked the NVM chip itself, a common fault at this age on the panel. Try a complete power cycle, mains first then battery, and let us know. Beware of mains voltage if not a trained alarm technician or electrician. But I would recommend replacement with a 9651, although new NVM chips are still available (despite their obsolescence within the wider IC industry)
  4. I would imagine you can set the associated user account to Arm Only?
  5. Well done for not going down the Yale tat route, the Texecom 24 is fine but pay careful attention to your pirs and dts. I would recommend a healthy budget for these, consider texe brand by all means but also risco iwise and vanderbilt e-line. Dont just buy the £4 budget ones. If your alarm is bells only you are essentially wanting to avoid ever having a single false alarm, as your neighbours may come over the first time it goes off, but regular false alarms will erode confidence in the system. That said, system design and sensor placement is a huge part of why a professionally installed system is worth the extra expense, as well as the ability to have proper monitoring.
  6. Wish he would edit the one I quoted to make sense!
  7. Hi, when you say you are new to the industry, do you mean you are a security installer* working for yourself?
  8. Always the sign of a rush job isn't it, bracketed PIRs sat in the middle of the ceiling. Used my 2nd one ever last month, moving an existing IR120.
  9. The supplied eol board is this one https://uk.spiap.com/products/intrusion/detecteurs_mouvements_lentille/carte_fin_de_ligne/aope01.htmlSW can (I think) supply the other one, a PE02 for not much more but thats only needed for Aritech in terms of 'common' UK panels AFAIK. As for the screw, I've been fitting the IR200 for years and you'd be surprised how small a gap you really need, its never been a technical or aesthetic issue, and it's actually less than you'd have the leave on the ir120, because despite the 'catflap' screw cover, the e-line is far less chunky at the too so wont foul the ceiling as it hinges into place.
  10. TBH they are already going for a fair few quid on ebay, can't see prices rising just yet
  11. Nope youre right, it's something they introduced on the last incarnations of the now discontinued 9751 9752 and 9853 EN models that's slightly pointlessly crept into the remaining 9651 model
