This is the wiring from the old PIR that I have just rewired to as it was.

I have just set the alarm and this zone triggers the alarm!

So it did/does work. (Not sure about the other zones)

OK you have a texecom veritas r8  

 

Looking at the wiring  none of the zones are linked out and there's nothing wired to the SW out terminal  which is good 

 

This most likely narrows the fault down th the pir   the eol link on captures are a switch  set it to OC OC which is the top option 

I will give this a try!

thanks!

Here is the wiring on the P15, plus also the the G2 switch is on and the shutter at the bottom is set to dog. I haven’t moved the EOL setting.

Have you tried fitting the old PIR temporarily and testing that

 

Are all the other PIRs working ok

 

What panel do you have

Is it a veritas as it could be wired to a switched output and or the zone linked out

I took this yesterday when I had it open.

Thank you all for the replies. 
late finish today so I haven’t been able to do anything with it.

The plan so far is

1. take a photo of the current new PIR with wiring.

2. Set the old PIR up, take a photo of the wiring and do a test to see if this triggers the alarm when it is on.

3. Test the other zones too to see if these trigger the alarm when it is on.

The system has worked for the last 3 years. However I can’t be sure this PIR worked when armed!

The new pir didn’t light up when there was movement when armed but did when not armed

I have purchased 4 new ‘Capture P15 AKB-0001’ PIRs to swap out the old none cat friendly texecom AAA1000s.

I naively thought that it would be a simple task. I made a note of what wires went into which terminal and did a like for like swap with the PIRs.

After I powered the alarm back up, I got the blue light from the PIR when it detected movement but when I set the alarm it didn’t sense a thing.

Can anyone tell me where I’m going wrong, I would be most grateful.
