[Safe limpet issue]

Another thing I found was if the magnetic feet have twisted this can cause them to false alarm. Make sure the feet are tight too. Other than that same as previous comments

I do know way back in the 90s Ambassador Alarms was owned by East Midlands Electricity never knew about Weat Midlands

[Door Intercom GDX5]

Thanks for the reply. That’s what I was thinking. Must be some sort of data type entry system 

[Door Intercom GDX5]

Has anyone got experience of the 4 wire GDX5 door entry/intercom systems. I have a good friend that has a faulty handset but having not used one and not being able to get my head round the fact it’s 4 wire instead of the usual 5 wire systems I’ve used can someone tell me. Can I use a normal door entry phone like a BSTL or is it only a GDX system phone that’ll work ?

 

cheers

To me it's like the system has defaulted to factory settings after the power was cut

If keypad is off it’s box that’ll be tamper fault. If keypad has no display possible keypad or cable issue

If you really want the stroe to keep going after the 20 minute cut off just programme the output as intruder

 

[Paragon alarm service went well]

If in doubt gie it clout

[Set up for galaxy with no door contacts specced]

I would have thought you'd do the first detector as entry, then time set would be enough time to allow the detector to settle say 30 seconds then it depends how far keypad/prox is from the detector so say 20-30 seconds

Set auto test to 00 rather than 24 and restart panel

Could be the standby battery has given up and dragged down the system

[Honeywell long range detectors]

Are they mounted on a solid base or outer cladding ?

 

[Menvier TS690]

Is the 690 not programmed the opposite to what you normally do in that the zones you think are included are excluded, I'm sure I had this years ago and that was the only way I got it working

[Galaxy 16 Plus Communications Conundrum]

Your only other option was to programme the telephone number/s you want it to dial into the receiver tele number and put any 4 digit account number in other than 0000 and when the alarm activates it'll call the numbers 8 times and just beep at you. But best invest in a speach dialler that way you can acknowledge any  activation message

[Galaxy 16 Plus Communications Conundrum]

If the phone line wasn't connected before you started it may be that the system has been hit by lightning so disconnected, you can check this by doing a continuety test with a multi meter check between phone line b terminal and earth (it may be a teminal and earth) if you get a reading of about 10 ohms or less the pcb is damaged

[Wireless Detection]

Another option is a curtain pir on its side at approx light switch level, in the good/bad old days there was a (wondered ?) ex35 pir that had a pet option within it, so that if you slid the board to pet it acted like a curtain don't know if there a newer version out there now

[Elmdene bell box wiring help]

If you're just putting power on are you holding the tamper switches down as from memory the things sounded when you put power on till the tamper switches are closed, also watch the big white paddles as they were for anti foam and caused nothing but hassle so slide them off 

[Wireless Detection]

You do get pet friendly pirs for the galaxy the only issue I've had is cats like to jump on things so unless you can site them so as there's nothing in the field of view the cats will jump on, the only other option is the old turn the detector upside down and mount it lower

good luck

[Texecom Premier Elite 48 - QD false alarms]

I would suggest with the dining room one if the activation was around sunrise that it's a good chance it'll have been a spider, as any time I've had activations around sun set - sun rise it's spider playtime

[Grade 3 Roller Door Contacts]

I had this too, so I bypassed the tamper loop part of the contact and no more problem, can only think that the loop isn't very good inside the contact, this is the pair of white wires that are there only for a tamper
