Dan24 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Hi, I've got a galaxy g2-12 with a standard 16 ohm speaker but the volume control doesn't seem to make a major difference to the output, even on 1/30! I need the speaker to hear the chime inside the house, but it's way too loud even on the lowest setting, but then in alarm I want the speaker to be as loud as possible. Is my panel faulty or is it a problem across the G2 series? The tones are really high pitched compared to any other galaxy I've heard. Has anyone else found this problem and got any way of sorting it, like if the firmware can be upgraded etc? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james.wilson Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I seem to recall it being a firmware issue. securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan24 Posted August 3, 2013 Author Share Posted August 3, 2013 Looks like it might be easier to upgrade to a dimension, plus I can then add wireless devices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxo Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Try an Elemedene Inter internal sounder. IIRC that will give you more control of the tones if you cannot flash the panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Arab Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I found that the volume only really worked well if you put one wire through a 1 k resistor (which'll reduce the sound too) then the volume control works better Trade Member Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxo Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 500 Ohm is the better size to use. A simple way to lose the "noise" on an intercom system too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
