Hello

yes was fiddly, but works perfectly now it’s tidied up, another skill learnt LOL

[Gardtec 800 part set procedure]

Works perfectly now......hopefully it will,last another 25 -30 years...LOL

[Gardtec 800 part set procedure]

Thanks, at least I know, alls well that ends well....

 

thanks for your help

[Gardtec 800 part set procedure]

Thankyou

 

the picture here is the way I wire it up first but had a continuous tamper ....

 

 

 

 

then swopped the yellow and black, as per a DIY site...and it worked !!!

 

 

[Gardtec 800 part set procedure]

Hello

 

i had the black and yellow wire swopped.....

 

now tamper has cleaed and all,ok...

 

would still like to know about the selectable resistor contacts ?

 

thanks for all the help

[Gardtec 800 part set procedure]

Hi

when i said worked, that was a little premature......the tamper goes off checked wiring can’t see anything wrong

 

help please

[Gardtec 800 part set procedure]

Hello

 

thank you

 

so the two wires not connected are not needed and can be left as such as now.?

 

so do modern alarm systems not have resistors ? Or are they built in now ?

 

was rather fiddly getting the resistors onto the contacts, but worked ok..

 

thank

 

ps the only built in resistor contacts I can find are selectable....is this easy to select ?

[Gardtec 800 part set procedure]

Sorry, back to my original post, changing a door contact....from what I have read, it’s a simple matter of the switch wire being connected to the two silver screws.....and the tamper wire joined together and secured up in one of the brass screws..

 

i was k with that..

 

however, I have resistors in mine, one between one wire  ( connected to a brass screw )and the silver screw....plus another resistor linking the two silver screws.....there are two,other wires, I assume the tamper wires, but these are not joined, they were just tucked away in the back of the switch....

 

i believe  I can  replace the switch, using the existing resistors , not sure if the tamper wires should be twisted together and secured in a spare brass screw..

 

many thanks

 red is One switch wire the 2nd switch wire; green, connected with a resistor to the blue terminal. Yellow the resistor between the two switch wires.

Thank you

Thanks

want to do the bellbox myself as can’t affod new panel yet...

 

so  is the pyronix a good option as. A good bellbox or because it’s ewsier swooped ?

 

thanks

 

i believe there is a chart somewhere of the wiring for various bellboxes ?

[Gardtec 800 part set procedure]

Hello

is my best  panel replacement option still the gardtec 600 ? I wouldn’t do this myself, but would like to keep my existing word system, sensors etc ( don’t need a dialer....

 

also need to replace the front bell box, starting to disintegrate....what’s the easiest like for like replacement....

 

thanks again

[Gardtec 800 part set procedure]

Agreed thank you

 

[Gardtec 800 part set procedure]

Yes that was what I was told, maybe the original installers omitted a fuse or put in the wrong size...

 

an alram installer used the psu from a dialler unit that is unused to,power the board, seems ok

 

one day has been suggested, hopefully can keep the original PIRs etc, will just need a new control panel and a front Bell sounder..

 

thanks for the help

[Gardtec 800 part set procedure]

Hello

 

thanks, was a bit worried, as a long time ago I changed a PIR and somehow managed to blow the PSU on the control panel, although I have since been told this shouldn’t have happened......

 

[Gardtec 800 part set procedure]

Yes I thought defaulting would work, oddly enough I remembered the engineer code just this morning....

 

so so hopefully I can add the faulty sensor to the part set till I fix it....thank you

 

Program zones yes types press no till attributes yes then “test none” displayed pressed yes and shows part set 1 zones...if I press no and enter zone it gets added to part set 1 but confusing but worked 

 

is it best to power down the system before changing a door reed contact ?

 

 

[Gardtec 800 part set procedure]

Hello

i have the user and engineer manuals, but can’t seem to work out how to add a ne zone to my existing part set 1

 

i did this some time ago, but can’t remember how.. hopefully I do t need the engineer code, I forgot what I changed it to,...defaulted the system and the user code reset to default, but the engineer code doesn’t accept the default value...it’s not locked,as,I have changed it before and the installers confirmed it’s not,locked 

 

need sme help please

 

 

 

thanks
