Then its into programming and the instructions that come with the expander tell you how to do it. !

arfur mo Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 i had this recently - the manual said the old connections but the pcb had the rs port i wonder if he has checked the battery? lol (sorry Bazz it's an 'in' joke, Angus is our battery 'Mod' ). i bet you (Angus) had a panel where they run out of the newer instructions so stuck in old stock, anyway the tech help number is on the back so give them a call be quickest as it also depends on the version number of the software. regs alan If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!

I think i may be wiring the 485 bus connection wrongly but not sure I have gone from panel to interface card on serial cable then from interface card with 4 core to zone expander but every time i try to install zones it says wireless reciever not active please help you definately need to use the blue 4, maye 5 pin connector on the rear of the pcb. i know this as i cut it off and tried to wire it into the data line! i had to use a galaxy digi cable to make it work. the newer ones come with an expander already connected i think.
