  1. Hi, could anyone be able to point me in right direction? 

    I have a Siemens system.

    which is programmed but I need a few cause and effects programmed in. I have all the software on lap top ext everything’s programmed but I just can’t find how to do cause and effect on a couple of devices.also have I/o units in faults which I’m sure is down to programming so fingers crossed someone out there can help? 

    Im used to advanced and c-tec panels which I can program easily but this is like a whole new ball game 

    thanks peepS

  2. Ive come across this a few times, tech support usually just say make sure you give it 15mims after setting system to test.

     

    i do find these kits ok though as a alternative to the wired system.

     

    What I do know though is don’t bother putting one in a  conservatory  , 3 times I’ve tried and 3 times I’ve been called back to move or generalyswitch off detector. Far to warm a environment!

    So in your loop list, edit your io device into a new output group ( default is 199) so make it let's say 10.

    then go into your "edit output cause and effect tab"

    right click and select "add output group" create the group number 10 then select input point , then pick your call point or smoke from the list, to add more devices simply right click on your new group and select "add input event" to add more input devices.

     

    you can do it by altering zones and creating zone rules also but it depends specifically on what your trying to achieve to be honest.

    Absolutely worked a treat and first time! 

    Thank you very much,

    saved me a load of time and far less stress 

    thanks again

    And I assume when they trigger (devices in boiler room) all other outputs will trigger? To raise alarm? Or no

    Yes indeed so

    The way described above would only make the IO operate when your boiler room CP or SD goes off, you can select pre alarm ect too,

    when the SD and CP activate, all the other devices (sounders and relays in group 199 will still go into fire as normal)

     

     

     

     

    Yes that’s exacaly what I want

     

  5. I think I’m with you.. so will give it a go, 

    basically it’s a 3 loop panel 80/100 devices used up in each loop, 

    but the request is that one particular I/O unit which is in the boiler room is programmed in such a way that the relay does not change when the system goes into fire condition from all devices apart from  two Devices which are the  smoke and call point is in the same boiler room, 

    when these are triggered the relay needs to trigger 

    thanks 

  6. Anyone got a idea on programming cause and affect on these panels? 

    I’m new to them but basically I have a rather big premises with several I/O units with which one of the units I do not want to be triggered when the system goes into fire alarm state but only to be triggered when one certain call point or smoke is triggered. 

     

    The I/0 unit is in same room as the call point and smoke 

     

    any tips or help would be great that guys 

  7. Integrated! This is wry odd. Made up a mini loop attached one sounder on it’s fine! Attach any of the 4 other main loops on sounder go off! 

    Mist as if they are conventional sounders but they are 100% not.

    its run for 3/4 weeks fine! 

    Unless someone’s been in weekend and swapped then ha 

  8. Hi all, 

    got a 4 loop advanced panel. loops all ok.

     

    upload the device text with config tool, 

    then suddenly loop powered sounds are going off, with nothing coming up on panel saying why or can’t silence them,  and only way to stop them is to just take loop out.

    never come across this in 14 years, any ideas guys? 

    Loop was fine before I done up load.

     

    I’ve since erased the configuration via panel, so no devices then on loop, but still as soon as I plug loop in...sounders  go off!! 

     

    Using Apollo gear with loop powered sounders only! 

     They are the right sounders they are not conventional! As they’ve been working while I’ve tested call points  before upload,

     

    im going back in for a fiddle but any suggests  or anyone experiencing this would be a great help 

     

     

     

     

     

  9. Accenta G3 engineers and user manual needed please? 

     

    Ive just come across a house with the Accenta panel powered down, so I need the engineers manual to reset system as I don't have the codes either

    thanks

    Ok, that's only got 4 wired zones (better than none!) although you can use an expander.

    Or six if you consider the 2 zones on the RKP as well

    Gateway is the IP of your gateway, DNS is the IP of the DNS server. If using a BT router these are likely to be that.

     

     

    Probably not advised if you have no networking skills.

    I can only suggest to follow the manual carefully.

    I do have networking experiences from cctv setup and various other alarm prouducts, it's just my first 'com wifi' installation and was looking for handy tip as experience tells me sometimes these thing can turn out to be hours of unwanted fun 

  12. so 12v and ov to aux 12v aux on expander

    tamp to aux input on expander and program as bell tamper

    bell to output on expander and program as bell sab

    ???

    take it theres nothing to get the strobe off in expander so just loop over in sab off the bell.?

  13. gen question on the texecom wireless ricochet product.

     

    Ive fitted well over 100 texcom panels but only done about 4 of the wireless systems and installed one 14 months ago and it has been working fine but has developed a fault,

    when arrived at the propety all the zones were active, i programed all the zones to then unused then put them back on and now all zones are secure but every single zone does not pick up anything on a walk test or in normal use. ive even tryed relearning a device but it wont even relearn.

    Has anyone come across this before?

    Im thinking the receiver needs replacing

  14. BS5839 is far from a simple, it is a very detailed standard that runs into a lot of pages. The standard itself is protected by copyright so pasting it up here isn't an option i'm afraid.

    Yeah i understand that but i remember when i first started out i had a A4 double side sheet i picked up from ADI it was very handy at the time regarding heights/distances ect
