mogden Posted September 1, 2008 Author Share Posted September 1, 2008 Guys, What if I replace the PIR's and the controller, as suggested. I would still have to use my 4 wire low voltage cables as replacing them with mains is not an option. Are these light control units still available? Thanks.

james.wilson Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 yes, you could use say a gjd opal xl sensor and a sapphire controller, you could go voltek but they dont make a 240v keypad interface. Most proper lighting is all 12v, and the switching and 240v bit is fitted elsewhere. As yours is a 240v controller you need a sapphire or emerald. securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

james.wilson Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 for performance id stick with gjd. Also its rare that the light and the sensor are in their best positions when mounted together. I always like the light to be higher and the sensors at 2.4m securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

I always like the light to be higher and the sensors at 2.4m very true, but why depends on the layout and performance required if it's a bungalow, 1st floor flat - mansion what ever, offering the alternatives for concideration seemed to me a good idea, the o/p has obsolete kit which he could fit a GJD head to and will work - but for how long? relays in the controller wil be near their sell by date, lamp housings corroded as most do, so a realistic budget often overules ideals. regs alan If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!

james.wilson Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 I think someone suggested changing both ends arf.
