I solve "by accident" the "0004 AUX TAMPER" problem by setting all the outputs (1001 to 1024) to "spare" (latch) and output *99 to E/E Horn (latch), then restart the system. Thanks all! ... Note that this is the first time I have an alarm system and I find that the Galaxy Flex is nice piece of hardware, with a lot of software options. I got mine through securitywarehouse because it is not easy to find this kind of system open for diyers here in Belgium. Until now, I like it very much even though it is not newbie-friendly.

Thank you GalaxyGuy, I just did what you said and I got 0V between T and 0V. I think I have one solution left: Cold Start (51.17.4) to set all settings back to default setting. Do you think that could be a solution?

Do you have an idea how to acknowledge the tamper error. I'm now stuck in the Engineer mode because each time I want to back to normal mode, the tamper check routine returns this error and give me just one option: press Esc and go back to Eng. mode. When I restart the system, the error is still there.

No, I din't All my cables come into the panel from hole in the back of the box. When I push the telephone cable through this hole, its head hooked the T-to-0V wire by accident. It happened because the wire used to make the jumper T-to-0v was a bit too long. So I remove the wire, reduce its length and put it back. I'm really lost with this 0004 AUX TAMPER error.

Following the installation guide, the "0004 AUX TAMPER" corresponds to address 0004 which is "Bell/Siren tamper ("T" terminal)". The Guide says that this T terminal must be connected directly to 0V terminal if no bell/siren is fitted. That what I do. I think that the system has detected that the T-0V jumper has been removed momentarily (yes, I hooked this wire by mistake by installing the phone input). Even after putting back the wire, the system retains the tamper and doesn't want to clear it. ... Now I have the question: On the pcboard, over the outputs 1,2,3 terminals, there are 3 "pull-up links" for outputs - a kind of 3 jumpers. What do they do? What are they for? Someone has an idea? Regards,

Hello! This week-end, I install and program 3 new RF door contacts and wire the telephone input. Everything work well, except now I get "0004 +AUX TAMP" error that seems to stay there forever. During installation I disconnect by error the wire which is used to jump T terminal to 0V terminal at the outputs pcb board. When I want to leave Eng. mode, the tamper check returns error "0004 AUX TAMP". So I shutdown the system, put the jumper T-0v back, then power-up the system. But the tamper error stay there and I don't know how to clear it. Somebody can help me? Thanks

You are right, it's 680ohm (the ones included in the kit). Ok, next time I will try # before eng. code. Thanks

Thanks again. You're right. I have to read better the Installer Manual.

It works! Setting MK8's address to 1 and now it's communicating with the system. It is a big step forward but I feel that there is still a long way to go. Now I' stuck because I cannot access to the Parameters menu. I'm login with the manager code (1234), then I try to go to the Parameters menu (51), the system says "Insufficient Access Right". Then I try to login with the engineer code (112233), the system says the same thing, "Insufficient Access Right". The system seems to recognize only one code, the 1234. But this code, I can go nowhere. except to basic users settings. .... EDIT: I found it. I have to go to menu 48, then enable Eng. Access, and then I can log in with the eng. login. Ouff!!

You're right! I just reread the Installer Manual and it says that the valid MK8 addresses are 0 to 7. I will try it this evening and I hope that will work. Many thanks.

Hello, First, I would like to apologize for my english which is really terrible. Then, maybe somebody can help me to solve my problem: I just receive my kit of Galaxy Flex 20 + MK80 keyprox + 3 Activ8 pir detectors. I wire everything as recommended. - My PIR detectors are wired with 1KOhm in || with "Relay" and 1KOhm in serial for eol. - Each zone is occupied by a single detector. - The 3 detectors are connected to zone 1002 (Exit) 1003 (Intruder) 1004 (Intruder). - Unused zones are "terminated" by a 1KOhm. - The keyprox MK8 is set to address A, with a 860Ohm Eol and connected to A-B of RS485. - The RF Portal is set to address 0, connected to terminal link the RS485. - The telecom lines are not connected yet. - The backup battery is not connected yet. I did a check all the lines with a ohmmeter to ensure that everything is ok, and then I power on the system. ... When the system is powered, I get: - The keypad emits a steady sound that goes off when I press a button. - The first line of the keypad reads like that: *********************** - The Led of left right bottom of the keypad flashes; - The red diagnostic Led of the control panel motherboard lights up steady for some secondes, then flashes continuously. - The LED of the PIR detectors indicates that they are in working condition and reacts property to a presence. But, the problem is: The keypad displays *************************** but nothing else. Even by pressing a few buttons, nothing happens. Thank you in advance if you can help me.
