antinode Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Would'nt recommend a Scantronic for a newbie, even the 9448+ needs a manual to program unless you know them well. I would stick with a Texecom Premier, the manual is nice and easy to follow. Only for a pro fit - it doesn't come with a manual remember, how would he set it up? Programming a Galaxy on a basic, non-compliant bells only system is'nt that difficult IMO. The menu structure makes it reasonably straightforward. I fitted my first without a manual and did OK.

Rufuss Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 Thanks for the info so far Lads, If I went for the texacom premier some one mentioned i could use zones on the key pads?? Instead of an expansion unit?? Can these be used/programmed for timed access/exiting?? Sorry if these questions are so basic Thanks Rufuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luggsey Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Hello,This is my first post so please go easy! I have just purchased a property which I am currently renovating and since purchasing it has been broken into twice. So I need an alarm quick. I am a qualified Maintenace Technician (Industrial) with 2381 and 2391 so not a numpty just inexpeiranced in alarm systems. I have only done 2 jobs on an alarm system which were pretty basic one was relocating a PIR and replacing a N/G battery these were on a optima panel. I need a system capable of monitoring 10 zones and 4 remote pads due to the odd lay out of the property. If any one could recommend a good make/model thats capable of monitoring 10 zones I would be gratefull. Thanks in Advance Rufuss Texacom is good stuff if u can get it, I don't know their model line up for 10 zones but if you are using 4 keypads with Texacom you could use cheaper LED keypads and one LCD keypad. With 4 keypads these will be more expensive then the panel I suspect, check prices of keypads first! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Life is like a box of chocolates, some bugger always gets the nice ones!

luggsey Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Ah, I see where it went wrong now! Texacom Panels I have never fitted one of these models, but they are normally well priced. LCD/LED KP for some but not all..... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Life is like a box of chocolates, some bugger always gets the nice ones!
