  1. Again Id create a topic just for that
  2. Assuming its a flex then you should be able to wire it up. Id suggest you head over to the DIY area and make a post for each bit that your doing, ie data for keypads and expanders. Title it accordingly. If you post with 'ive got all this gear how do i make it work' few people will respond as the reply would be huge!
  3. No iirc the fire input will obviously fire the bells. However you could use deterrent zone option ? I use technical zone on hkc for all my external detectors. However i use fire for my smoke detectors
  4. yes looks like you have another code. Engineer cant do users you need the 'manager' code
  5. agreed texecom, pyronix is where the numbers are at
  6. To prove router etc coukd you use your own phones Access point temp to prove the gear etc
  7. I've got an old oil filter from a 1989 escort only used once Should fit an orion or maybe a sierra
  8. agreed. I prefer sounders than speakers personally, hi-lo's particularly
  9. its long obsolete. you need a 9800 keypad for a 9800 panel, like asking about using a fiat ecu on a citreon engine etc
  10. A speaker is a speaker, ie needs a speaker signal. A sounder needs switched voltage (in our case 12v) to sound.
  11. As above it was many years ago I'd assume the same thing will happen with ring blink etc. Also iirc it was a Motorola rebadge from a visonic unit with firmware that could only use their service sold at a discount on product hardware cost to recoup on the service. Plus to be a customer you must be paying bt to be one?
  12. As above it should be one sensor per input. The old old regs allowed 10 per circuit if latching but that was a hangover from the 70s. I'm a big believer of if you can get a wire to it you should but 10 devices on a wire is worse. If you can't use some form of Id then I'd suggest wireless is better in this case. You could use addressable with hkc and keep the single sensor per point etc
  13. You appear to not have power to the keypad. This could be cable damage, faulty keypad, disconnected in the control panel etc.
  14. As above its probably a test call under tel no 1. Its a requirement for grade 2 communicators to test the alarm path at least once every 24 hours to prove it could use it if needed
  15. Does anyone rate risco anymore? I know the past and how it was 1 way would you use it out vs anything else?
  16. OP U fortunately as a DIY grade system I doubt any of our members will have installed your system only removed them when upgrading
  17. If you dont know the code and it hasnt been serviced in years your gonna struggle to stop it without fully decommissioning it. Alarms need a little looking after or they cause issues as you have found out
  18. It's not a very respected manufacturer anymore that why Mr h is saying bin it. How old is it, when last serviced etc?
  19. meter the tamper return from the sounder to check its not that causing your tamper
  20. Agreed very few free things work well all the time. Its a security system at the end of the day. If signalling is important 'dont' use an app
