Hello,
I was wondering if anyone would be able to tell me where I could get an old bell box foam detector, like a Viper V-Foam detector. Or if anyone had any information about these foam detectors, I know that they used some sort of optical beam which would be broken if foam was put into the bell box, but that's about it
Thanks

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has an old Concept 4 zone panel that has been removed or that they don't want. I would be willing to pay for postage to send it up to me.
Thanks
-
Yeah, the new Homeywell Accentas aren't as good as the old ones. Well, then don't build 'em like they used to
-
I see, I bet some really old alarms are still going on, I thought it may have been something like they keypad wearing out
-
No, thank you everyone who has helped me get this alarm sorted
I did a Power-Up NVM clear and no it's working fine :D Thank you everybody it just says battery fault on the keypad which is easily fixed lol -
Here you go
-
I have, there is no room on the board for a tamper switch, it would have had a metal switch, I know it's not an EOL problem because it doesn't give me a zone number, it just says 'tamper', I have made sure every single tamper connection is closed, it just won't work. If I press 4 and 9 it will go into 'Attack'. Any suggestions?
-
I tried uploading a full picture, it says the file is too large?
-
It has no tamper switch on the board. Just all these terminals and SCB is linked out too
-
I have got a new alarm and when I power it up, it just says 'Tamper' nothing I can do, I have linked out all of the tampers, but nothing seems to work... I have include some pictures
-
Haha, yeah, I will just wait 'till something goes horribly wrong on the panel, what is the main thing which causes panels to fail?
-
Haha, just our Paragon Plus hasn't been serviced since it was installed
Before we lived in this house, it still seems to work fine though. It was installed by C.D.S. Security & Fire. I wonder how much longer it'll last? -
Thank you
It was for a friend, he wants one. How bad is it for an alarm to have a battery in it which hasn't been changed for 25 years? -
I see, I really want an ADE Series 700 H.S. a very, very old alarm panel indeed, sadly, not much chance of that, do you know where I could get a Scantronic 9500?
-
Well, I am only 15 so I will just use it to mess around and play with, I may use it in my home, I don't know, I use my Concept 6 alarm to play around with. Do you take out many old Accentas?
-
It was on eBay for £15, there is still an Accenta 8 board up there. I will need to use my XM transformer and case to power it. It had a bag full of resistors and its manual.
-
Yeah, it was brand new, so it will come with one, why? Is it hard to Program?
-
Oh, please tell me, does it need the EOL resistors to work? I will have to use my XM transformer to power it, I have an early Accenta LCD keypad too, it is very different to how they look now, same casing as the INFORMA by ADE Honeywell
-
How much?
Accenta Mercury PCB? That was £15
-
Ok, I just like the simplicity of their alarms, I have just ordered an Accenta Mercury ABI PCB, it uses EOL resistors, so I am guessing it will be more complex than the Accenta 8 which is my current Accenta
-
Thanks for all of your replies
I was just hoping to learn a bit more about this good company I am guessing at the time their alarms were quite cheap compared to others like Texecom and Scantronic -
They are good panels, but due a replacement now
-
I know, I think it's a shame that they don't brand their own products anymore, they just say 'Honeywell Security' on them now I don't really know anything about them, so I was just wondering and trying to learn a bit more about this company. Their alarms seem ok, many of their old alarms still working now, I have 3 of their alarms, a Version 2 Concept 6, Optima XM and a brand new, unused Accenta 8.
-
Just wondering, they seemed like such a good company, there is nothing about them on the internet, all the evidence that they ever existed is on here with their old adverts.

Thanks, io have an SAB Module made by 'Setcom', it has foam detection and tamper capabilities, just a small piece of circuit board
