indigodigital Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I am fitting a Galaxy 2-44 and have a door contact that does not have any wiring instructions. Its a simple magnetic contact rated at G3. Can anyone tell me if I need to fit a 1k resistor across the alarm and between the alarm and tamper contacts in the junction box? Also do these need any power from the panel? I am assuming no. I hope that makes sense. Many thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alarm Co Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 you have to fit two 1k resistors on all galaxy panels one for your alarm circuit and one for the tamper circuite 1k on alarm circuit goes parallel and the 1k tamper goes in line hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chriswatson Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Some Grade 3 contacts do come with the 1k resistors builtin, Elmdene green contacts and CQR type A contacts both come with the 1k's built in. Stick your meter on the contact set to ohm's to check. Chris. jobs@mintsecurity.co.uk 01246 888444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
