Agreed. We always use red/black for power.

I think the point was if the remote reset algorithm could be figured out, there is no need to call the arc as in effect, the system would be on customer reset.

Dunno, but thats why we arent yet in BSIA as it is an entry requirement

Yes

Don't disagree arf but as I keep getting told. Remember the golden rules, the one with the gold writes the rules and as compliance is mandatory to get a urn even if I think they are bollox I adhere to them to get what I need.

Only not allowed for one disarm method but because the rules say so.

Good idea

I've no idea what your on about. Select, insert and update are all strange words to me. Best pay technistore zillions to do it for me.

Hang tight, there are a few galaxy fans here who have probably used them. I'm presuming the process is the same as the door, pir, dt and flood which is out the panel into learn and then tamper it so i presume the vibrios the same but I don't want to misguide you as I've not personally done it myself.

Before my time I'm afraid. We had already ditched galaxy by the time they brought the shocks out.

Only having 8 portals maximum on a system proved a real problem for us for commercial stuff. We installed about 100 portals and then moved away from galaxy. The stuff we have out there such as rf floods and dt's seem to work ok but had a few radio polling fails over very short distance beaten portal and device and in open air.

Honeywell documentation says 24 devices, hence 3 rio addresses. You had issues with >16?

Yes, just wire it as a standard rio and when you exit engineers it will say x modules added. Rf portal can take up to 3 rio addresses depending how you set it up in the programming.

4 digits

Lol

I thought it a bit strange having such a big number. No idea why it is so.

000001 - 999999

Just for clarity Aritech ATS does use seed codes, Aritech CD does not.

Totally agree. I know webway use a few in their stuff rather than recreate something that already existed.

Sorry it is. I meant a keypad on the system not a keypad plugged onto the portal.

Yes, RF portal is done via the keypads. 6.5

It's easy enough on a GD. Each RF portal is seen as RIO's and you can tell it how many rio addresses you want to take up. It's a case of putting the panel into learn and tampering the device and all is well. Program everything else as a normal zone.

He gets moody occasionally.

Absolutely
