Hi, i am just about to purchase a Texecom Veritas Excel panel & would like to have a cupboard that has valuables & a safe in on 24 hour security but am not sure what to set the panel at to achieve this.

IE: if the alarm is turned off for normal house use i would want the cupboard alarmed until i want to go in there. I could set it as PA or Fire, but thought there would be a better way. Any suggestions.

Image below gives the options in the left column.

Many Thanks

Chris

zone omit unit + 5 level shunt lock is the better way

agreed, but you could shunt the circuit with the shunt lock if its not certed.

I think you need a more powerful panel to do it inside the panel with programming

Thanks for getting back guys, in my old house i had an old Karizma ID Panel (The one with biscuits) & this had the facility to leave the safe on 24 hour if needed, but seeing as i have not purchased the panel, any recommendations on panels that might have this facility. Prefer texecom but not inessential.

Thanks

PS> Just on another note! any suggestions where to purchase a co2 detector & a LPG gas detector for the system. Smoke & heat are no problem, but these 2 seem to be illusive. (Moved to the country & have log fires & LPG cooking)

If you want your stay with texecom have a look at the premier

IMO Premier 48 would be better than a Premier 24.

As for CO2 detectors there are Honeywell Units that have a relay output.

SF340J (Low Voltage) or SF340F (Mains/Battery)

Also there's Honeywell LPG detectors (Z10 series).

Thanks everyone, will upgrade to a Premier & look at those Honeywell units.
