Hi all

I hope someone can help me .I have installed a galaxy g2-44 alarm into my house .it all works apart from getting the unit to phone out when the alarm goes off . I have a phone line attached to the unit as it past that test in the setup but I can find a way to test it's dial a number . I have god the unit to phone my mobile when it arms/disarms or goes off . But it just won't do it . Do I need an additional card or have I not set it up right .

Many thanks for any help

The g2-44 doesnt have that feature.

It wont call a phone etc, needs to call a proper arc

The on-board dialer requires a two way handshake, so even though you should be able to get it to ring your phone, since your phone cannot offer the handshake, the panel will report a communications fault.

 

You can still add a separate dialler, or extend your system with IP based monitoring with a low cost Ethernet module or Honeywell's E080 Ethernet.

Scantronic later firmware 9751s and higher had a call mode on the digi called 'home beep',

It would play a single tone down the phone!

On top model 9853 only you could even press 5 to acknowledge!

Wow

Lamest feature eva, but handy to test I guess.

Hi all

So if I added an Ethernet module how would that tell me if the alarm had gone off ?

You would need the receiver software or a monitoring account. The software only receives alarms etc. Designed for multiple sites where the co has their own 24 7 central security

Doing it simply is add a speech dialler , Honeywell Informa for example, connect to one of the outputs eg bell output to input 1 and connect to telephone add your messages, easier to get someone to do this bit for you
