breff Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Should be possible, you may need to common the negatives of both panels though. The opinions I express are mine and are usually correct!

lawandorder Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Should be possible, you may need to common the negatives of both panels though. Yes you can do it no problem, I have worked on largeish sites where multiple panels were connected to digital communicators. As Breff says you will have to common the negatives assuming you are using positive trigger.

Rulland Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 As Breff, obviously the dialler is getting 12v from one of the panels- I would assume that the panel that is getting the signal through is the one supplying the dialler-using a common 'ground'-it's probable that the other neg input has no referance to ground and as thus is just 'floating' as far as the dialler is concerned.
