Do you mean the 2400?

Detection that was used was the 178xx range otherwise known as xenex but with an addressable base.

Originally there was a thought that the 800 might have been a direct replacement for the 2400 but it never worked out like that

Memory failure again, yes I did mean 2400, we did look at it (800) to replace 2400's but it was no good, we just used a vig and put T-Breakers on the lid of the zone boxes.

What I was asking was did you ever use the "new" 2400 conversion bases for newer style Zennex detectors? It crossed my mind that these may be the same as 800 bases?

OP you will need to speak to a Gent SI installer in your area, Gent will tell you who that is.

Yeah the 800 used addressable bases for xenex detectors, not sure if they were the same for both systems though. I only saw one 800 panel in nearly 10 years with gent so don't know a great deal about them.

is that panel in a school in old colwyn??

no, a hmo in Rhiw Bank Avenue

thats a gent 800 panel it uses addressable bases, and conventional gent heads, so easy to change. u need a sort of dongle to connect to the panels comm port, and they are obsolete now.

i have the 800 software if anybody needs it.
