March 2, 201115 yr comment_270566 Hi I wonder if anyone can help, I am fitting Impaq plus with magnetic contact to my doors but I only have 4 wires for some strange reason, all the other cables are 6 core! I have setup the other detectors as eol, at the moment I have the resistors between alarm and alarm / alarm and tamper, if I wire alarm to reed and then from reed to the panel will that still work? I should probably have said I am wiring to a Texecom Premier 48. Thanks for any help.

March 2, 201115 yr comment_270589 cant see why not, just series up the shock & contact using eol for a pair (will be single zone though), the other pair power obviously.

March 2, 201115 yr Author comment_270591 Thanks, I'll give it a try, I assumed it would work. Wrestling with another problem at the moment, I have 1 zone set as Not Used but it keeps showing as tamper! That'll keep me busy this evening!!!

March 2, 201115 yr comment_270592 dont use tex kit meself, though apparently they are like the old fashioned menvier kit. try putting 2.2k resistor across the unused zone in the panel/expander. see if that does the trick.

March 2, 201115 yr comment_270593 Thanks, I'll give it a try, I assumed it would work. Wrestling with another problem at the moment, I have 1 zone set as Not Used but it keeps showing as tamper! That'll keep me busy this evening!!! Even if you've come out of engineering? They don't save changes until you exit programming. But, as mentioned either resistor it as mentioned or two links to short out zone+tamp.

March 2, 201115 yr Author comment_270594 I got it sorted, it wasn't the zone which was the problem it was the separate Aux Tamper which I didn't notice needed linked out. Now I can get on with the real programming work.

March 2, 201115 yr comment_270606 You can just turn it of in global, monitor hardware. True, much quicker to find a piece of wire or a staple IMO Then you don't need/forget to program it back when you come to use it. There was a time were Texecom stuff came with links fitted.
