adpteddy Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Hi Everyone and a happy new year to all. Can someone tell me if the Honeywell Galaxy 60 Panel will support the Mk7 Keyprox Keypads or will I need a new panel, also what software revision does the panel need to be at if they do work with them.

adpteddy Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 Many Thanks everybody for the speedy replies. I have just checked the panel in question and the version is at 1.04 which is way down. Is it possible to upgrade the version on the Galaxy 60 and if so whats the easiest way or is it cheaper to fit another panel ??? Many Thanks Luke.

goncall Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 1.04 is old,you will need a new pcb for prox from what i remember you could change the chips on the pcb,not sure if you needed a v2+ or v4+ pcb to start with.are you changing the pcb to comply with dd243 or pd or just for bells only system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basicly the customer has 5 sites with galaxy systems in, he has just purchased a sixth site and asked me to take a look at the alarm thats fitted there. So I have a look and its the aforementioned Galaxy 60 panel, customers other 5 sites all use the keyprox tokens to set/unset the panel so naturally whats the new site to be the same. The site is currently bells only but I will be looking to make it comply as he will want it monitored later on this year, site currently consists of Honeywell dualtechs and some shitty old door contacts. Basicly customer doesn't want to spend a fortune hence seeing if a version upgrade would be cheaper than a new panel. Many Thanks for the help so far.

Many Thanks for the help so far. you'll need to go g2 or g3 and change the detection if the site is currently bells only,depending on the size of the site and grade required you could go with a galaxy 2 but i find the galaxy 3 is the better panel even for g2 systems tho you may need to change the rios as well as if its the old metal style it doesnt have the grading sticker on them tho im not that sure if that is the case to be honest.
