james.wilson Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Well someone who has experirence with the xpc better correct me if im wrong but if i remeber the accord was an 8 zone panel that could take an rf keypad. I would have thought that zone 8 was a device not a global low battery alarm. So yuor only using circits 1 - 7 securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

antinode Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Sounds like you have the MTC100 transmitter (little white box with a thin wire antennae coming out of it and red LED). The Powercode stuff uses a 3v Lithium battery. Replacing this and closing the lid on the transmitter should clear zone 7 and 8.

antinode Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 now im confused i thought he had a wireless accord xpc so would have ademco pir's, Now he has visonic stuff? Seems like he's got like a standard Accord XPC (did'nt know there was a wireless one?) with a Visonic wireless setup for a (probably) detached garage.
