  1. Once complete I intent to use my alarm day and night.

    Complete set for when away from home and part set for perimeter / ground floor at night.

    I will also have one zone that I want to be set all the time. It will cover a safe. But it will need to be disarmed for authorised entry. A 24hr zone function on the galaxy can't be disarmed. Probably on a contact / shock.

    Is this where groups come in?

  2. I was just being a daffy diyer

     

    With the cover open the tamper caused the open circuit.

     

    closed up the cover and the values kicked in. although i had set 1k and 2k which gave me 3k I quickly fixed it.

     

    Pro in the making here! 

     

    cheers all.

  3. I have the instructions, but im just a little stuck with the setup here. I had it working fine with a 1k resistor in the panel and the zone wired into the ALM terminals and the ALM jumper set to 1k.

     

    If i move one of the ALM wires over to the TAM terminal as suggested in the diagram the panel reports Open Circuit Tamper (infinite resistance).

  4. Im fitting my Pyronix DT PIR's which (in my old house, not installed by me) didnt use the built in EOL resistors but had them all in the panel.

     

    I want to make this one a bit neater and somewhat more "proper job".

     

    Im guessing the clue is in the title - END of Line - that the resistors need to be within the housing of the detector and not within the panel.

     

    I need 1k closed and 2k open - i can get the first 1k from the built in resistors, but my issue now is physically, how would I fit the second 1k resistor into this space...

    and does the tamper work on the same 1k/2k principle ?

  5. I'm pretty sure one of the cables is one I've used before but I will check.

    I've got a serial cable and a converter to up size it to parallel.

    I will set the baud rate at 9600 on the module, galaxy gold and the comm port of the pc.

    From what I recall it just plugs into the S1 socket on the 500's main board. It doesn't need Extra Lines does it?

    Thanks
