Galaxy Engineer Sockets
jackaddressable replied to jackaddressable's topic in !!..DIY Installers..!!
It's definitely not a newer one lol Classic 504, still in pretty decent condition although watching the memory battery closely for signs of corrosion. Runs good still. -

Ah okay. Does each socket correspond to a line on the panel? -

Don't think so. In my panel, there are 3 sockets labelled S1, S2, and S3 on the right hand side of the main board. The S1 is connected to a RIO via a 4 pin Molex style lead. Does that help? Thanks -

Hi guys, Simple question, what are these and what do they do? Many thanks, Jack
-
Is it above 1200 ohms that you'd see high res? I seem to recall that?
-
Yeah, cuttable links inside. It is a shame because I like the design of them, but they do need to work. Are the PCB mounted batteries replaceable? I'm assuming they're for memory? Also, I have seen a few Dimension panels on eBay, I've always got an eye out for when this goes.
-
Really? Wow. That's actually surprising. I don't really like the resistors inside, but that's just a personal thing. To rectify this, did you switch to another manufacturer on your own installs?
-
To be honest, the panel is getting older anyway, and is a candidate for replacement. It's an old rip out. Galaxy Classic 504 lol.
-
Alright, thanks. Sorry to bother you
-
Well, resistance was showing 1135 ohms, but I'm not sure what it's jumping to and why. Obviously jumping over 1200 ohms though, and opening and closing the door made resistance to 1040 ohms. It's a door contact too, a CQR. System was not fitted by myself, but by the last owner and maintained by me.

Hello, I have a zone on a RIO with high resistance being randomly reported. I've omitted the zone for the time being, but what's the most likely issue in your opinions? It's on a standard RIO, but the fact that it happens randomly, i.e. one moment all is fine, the next it is not, makes me think the problem may lie with the RIO?
-
Yeah, I read that is a decent idea somewhere. I have another question - is there anything else that can cause a tamper on one of these keypads? Specifically loose wiring? Regards, Jack
-
Honeywell should have made those tampers a bit better. From what I've seen here, quite a few have had this problem. I'm not trying to disapprove of the card method etc, I just think that it's a shame for engineers and installers alike to have such a basic problem. I'm more annoyed that there is a problem, a solution is a solution.
-
Okay, thanks. That's fine, will do. It isn't the best, but will make do. Thanks mate.

Hello, I've got a Galaxy MK7 keypad giving a keypad tamper. The tamper switch on the rear of the keypad is not being adequately pressed down by the mounting plate and accompanying tamper peg. Does anyone have any advice on a short term solution for this issue? Regards, Jack
