ok sorry its taken me so long to reply, i was getting an error accessing the site last night
I put my lamps across it and it is closed when the magnet is in place,I asked the guy I bought it off and he said that's what is should be doing so it isn't a N/O contact, I will try the in line resistor now, but it wasn't showing tamper? it was saying 1001 door open when it was setting and then would only set if the i opened the door.
The eBay description is "normally closed"
To my way of thinking that means the contact is closed without any outside influence (eg magnet).
When the magnet is adjacent to the contact, the contact will open.Meant for door alarms i reckon.
You can get them normally open. Have you metered it?
You can get them normally open. Have you metered it?Yes, Knights do certain ones as NO
Yep use them a lot on nurse call systems for door monitoring.
thats automatically what i thought as well, and then thought the contact they had sent was the wrong one, but it is 100% closed with magnet in place

it was just listed as
Surface Mounted Brown Door Contact D20B

Hello All
quick question that I cant find anywhere
can someone confirm that door contacts are supposed to be "closed" when the magnet is attached
I have a galaxy intruder panel i'm installing and everything is set up apart from the door contact as its working in the opposite way i want it to
it is saying door open when closed and only sets if the door is open
it has the supplied EOL resistor across it (1K) and is set to 1k in the panel
I cant find any option to change it in the panel, i know it will be so something so obvious just wanted to make sure before i buy another contact
thanks

No haha its these
test lamps

the inline resistor solved the problem.
the only other thing now is, its saying tel line fault press enter to continue when setting, even though its set to no in 50.engineers- 1paramaters 18stopset- 4.tel line fault - no
cant find any other settings for the tel line?
thanks for all your reply's
