Hi Jeremy thank you for this detailed reply I am going to look into it now

It also seems the current intercom is not a Control4 branded intercom and is actually a 2N IP Verso (without camera) model

It's possible I only need the green pair that is connected to the relay terminals when connecting the Fanvil i66 The 2N IP Verso I/O Module (Part No. 9155034) expands compatible intercoms with two logical inputs and two relay outputs for sensor integration and external device control.

Hi James I am replacing the Control4 intercom with a Fanvil i66 The issue I am dealing with is understanding which of the 3 pairs in the intercom need to go into the new intercom

I have tested the old control4 intercom and the orange pair are the fob. Unsure what the brown pair are as the gate works when that connector block is unplugged

Message from Nice tech support goes against my green pair theory Hi James, From your picture, none of the greens are from the Common on the A60 control unit, if you reference the diagram below I sent you, you have multiple commons in terminal 20, I would assume for the photocells and the intercom unit. (you will need to verify) So from the picture, green is for a NO of your choice and programming of the Fanvil, and you will have to cable trace which common you have free in terminal 20 of the A60 that lead back to the intercom unit to be wired into the relevant Common.

I am expecting the green pair which was connected to the relay terminals to be connecting into the NO1 and COM1

Can you help me with the install of a Fanvil i66 please. I have removed a Control4 PoE intercom and there is 3 pairs out of 4 connected to it O/OW G/GW BR/BW The blue pair at the intercom end was not in use There is a pair of photocells and a remote fob

I now see it's part of the download I got from texe.com yesterday thanks, I was worried it would corrupt the panel running V3 to V6 but it appears it will not Premier-Elite-V6_06_02-Firmware.exe

I have the flasher interface and the usb-com cable and did have the flasher software but I can't find it and it's not available from the Texecom website when I sign in with my installer account

I have an Elite 48 running legacy V3.02 firmware that I am upgrading for SmartCom support. My local Wintex structure does not contain the old flashing tools. Can anyone pPlease provide a direct download link or file transfer for the legacy standalone Premier Elite Flasher application along with the V5 intermediate firmware binary? I can request it tomorrow from Texecom but today is my day off and I was hoping to get it done if possible!

Sounds like it’s easier if I just get my long set of ladders which are on another job and I’ll just go carefully to access it

I’m not there yet but it’s just a fully working siren on the wall and the old panel has been removed for a Pyronix Euro 76 6 core cable total colours red black blue yellow green white

I have an odyssey 1 on a very hard to reach area due to building work that took place years after the original install At the panel end I have a 6 core cable labelled as SAB Is there any safe way for me to continuity test this without damaging the siren without accessing it on ladders?

“Customer is always right” Nope, customer is a buffoon and doesn’t listen 😄

Yes he’s been given all the options but as he’s stuck in his ways he doesn’t want to use an ARC because it’s an ongoing cost and it’s not “how it’s always been since it was installed and it’s all BT’s fault blah blah blah”

Customer insists on having phone calls to a list of numbers rather than the DIGI-WIFI as he says he doesn’t keep his mobile with him to get the app notifications. We’re talking an old stuck in his ways elderly man you know the type “Why does it have to be changed it’s all BT’s fault they should just leave the landline on PSTN blah blah blah”

An update to this topic for anyone reading it Scantronic SD-LTE Universal 4G Speech Dialler This is what I have proposed to the customer if they want calls to mobiles and landlines when there is an alarm activation

Speech dialler on PSTN is obsolete I’m talking about an LTE enabled dialler that can phone the customer over 4G like the old way before the broadband went digital

Thanks for these replies it gives me something to go on. I’m going to speak to Alert Electrical today and mention this

This looks promising if it can connect to the Pyronix Enforcer https://www.adk-security.com/products/gjd-gsm-sim-card-speech-and-text-dialler-gjd710?srsltid=AfmBOor9YHxvd_Mb-zjWJH_uijVtXaf_wqwdDIbAhtQDxnqguhvVzir_ GJD 4G GSM Sim Card Speech and Text Dialler (GJD710) https://www.adk-security.com/products/gjd-gsm-sim-card-speech-and-text-dialler-gjd710?srsltid=AfmBOor9YHxvd_Mb-zjWJH_uijVtXaf_wqwdDIbAhtQDxnqguhvVzir_

I also had a look on Google and it says: Yes, a 4G speech dialer can indeed call a mobile number. These dialers are designed to alert you via phone call or text message when an alarm or event is triggered, and they can certainly send alerts to mobile phone numbers. Here's a more detailed explanation: 4G Technology: 4G speech dialers utilize 4G cellular technology to establish a connection and make calls, similar to how mobile phones work. Alerts: When an alarm or other event is triggered, the dialer will automatically initiate a call or send a text message to a pre-programmed list of contacts, which can include mobile phone numbers. Flexibility: These dialers are versatile and can be used with various alarm systems and other applications, making them suitable for a wide range of situations.

Thanks mate. He’s using the app but doesn’t keep his mobile with him most of the time. Pyronix say I can enable an ARC to receive alerts via the DIGI-WIFI and then they would call him What do you think?

Pyronix Enforcer (unknown model V10 or V11) until I visit site Customer wants to know if it can dial out to various numbers when there is an alarm activation like it used to do before BT moved his landline for the BT Hub onto digital If you have any products you recommend I would be keen to have a look thank you

Second gate controller Thanks mate looks like I can just replace the keypad with the latest model
