Can anyone suggest a way of making the strobe stop when the bell stops? I always find it strange that after an alarm condition the strobe carries on for ever until a reset. A continuous flashing strobe day after day is an open invitation to the low life to "do" your house. If the strobe stops when the bell stops then all is well. I know the latching strobe was a way of telling Plod which alarm has been set off, but these days Plod is not interested and neighbours seem similarly afflicted, so no need for continuous strobe I suggest. I have a gen4 CP and a couple of (different) bells but I suspect I could simply power the strobe from the bell signal - would that do it I wonder?

thanks for the update datad.. hmm I seem to have failed to realize that many rkp's incorporate a prox reader as well hence the poor uptake of the ADE device as you say. I wounder if the texecom prox reader keypads would be compatible with an ade gen4 panel? say the DBC-0001 for example?

Thanks dufjax - good to hear that. Anyone know why these units have been discontinued now? I don't seem to be able to find a simple alternative. Surely keyfob alarm setting with a remote unit like these is a useful feature which no other device seems to offer.

Wonder if anyone has installed 2 or 3 of these ADE Simple set readers in one installation? Can you learn a single keyfob to all 3 readers or do you need to have keyfobs for each one? Hope it's not the latter!
