Hi all
Ive recently added a new PIR in kitchen extension - well that was a few years ago really and the alarm hasnt worked for a while now as weve had quite a bit of work done in the house
I have had the tamper light on for ages on the keypad and the alarm would not set - so Ive been trying to sort and while its working now (kind of) I dont think any of the tampers are working at all
Ive added new PIRs today and by swapping the old ones off (for the pet friendly type) - I think the alarm should go off when the covers comes off but its not working - so I dont think the tamper is right
I dont have any resistors or anything like that so I assume I just have a global tamper ???
I have a communicator module and have looked at the install instructions and while the tamper to the main board is probably wrong (with the two greens) what I dont quite get is the junction block too
I have no idea what the black and blue wire is in that block
I know the colours are different to the manual but that was my installer who did that (i have tried to contact him but no reply)
Having the tamper back on isnt a massive deal but it would be nice to get it wired up correctly - I think the junction block is the key really - thats where most of the green and white wires go (which are the tamper wires on my system) Im just not sure what that black and blue are
I have a mutimeter if that would help to diagnose
Any advice would be appreciated
Thanks

Thanks for the replies all - I will have a crack at it later on today or this week just to see if I can identify and understand how he has wired it up
Its good learning anyway plus I was thinking of converting it to a smart alarm with one of these konnected boards and hassio - but not sure yet its a bit of money for lets face it not much benefit really
