Once complete I intent to use my alarm day and night.

Complete set for when away from home and part set for perimeter / ground floor at night.

I will also have one zone that I want to be set all the time. It will cover a safe. But it will need to be disarmed for authorised entry. A 24hr zone function on the galaxy can't be disarmed. Probably on a contact / shock.

Is this where groups come in?

You could use groups for that, or you could use a link to disable. Either way is doable, I'd probably go down the link route for 1 circuit

Ive seen the "Links" menu but I have always skipped by it.

 

I will get the programming manual out in a while and read up on links (what they are, what they do)

 

Thanks.

its like a virtual link.

You have a source then a destination. Quite powerful when needed. In your case id say a link source would be a latching code, destination be the vibe on your safe

I've just read up on links and is starting to make sense.

Could I set the vibe on the safe to have a custom output for a local siren.

ie, if for intruder I have 2 ext sirens, 1 internal siren and a master blaster as my outputs, could I have the vibe on the safe only output to say the one internal siren?

Only if you link the circuit to the output. If the sounders are on bell outputs then bells will fire in alarm

Would you normally put all sounders on the bells output?

Could I use a safe limpet = are they any good?

Depends what you want the sounder to do , ie programme the output

safe limpet is yes, but id suggest if you need one then you shouldnt be doing it urself.

I don't need one to satisfy anyone but myself. It's not a requirement , more a personal request.
