dwdave Posted August 1, 2015 Author Share Posted August 1, 2015 I think I'll be ending up with around 30 but I'm using a few rios to reduce runs and increase op. I have about 4 in place at the moment but will likely end up with more. Especially if I go wireless in some areas. Quote 'till the next question ...

Nova-Security Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I think you have badly designed your system, using rios to reduce runs only makes sense and saves money if you have 8 circuits that are 100m away from the panel. A GD48 would have give you 16zones onboard and 4 rios and the software on the panel is more suited to a home then a 500/520 which are aimed more at high security installations that need other things.

dwdave Posted August 1, 2015 Author Share Posted August 1, 2015 I had a job lot of rios so I wasn't to bothered about that. Equally it gives me lots of little runs that can easily be replaced or moved later if required. Agreed its not the best way though. Bear in mind that 1 rio was going to be used for integration to my raspberry pi however I have only briefly looked at the galaxy app and not sure what that can do for me at the moment. I believe I need the ethernet module for that to work. Quote 'till the next question ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nova-Security Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 How do you definitely and without doubt know that it is a panel fault... anybody ? DWdave have you checked the panel (see earlier post) ? Could be due to the fact that he has checked the fuse's and the panel doesn't stay on when the mains is removed. Not a panel fault more the smart rio inside the 500 Quote www.nova-security.co.uk www.nsiapproved.co.uk No PMs please unless i know you or you are using this board with your proper name.

Nova-Security Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Honeywell need to develop it more In what way ? can do anything with galaxy if you know the panel Quote www.nova-security.co.uk www.nsiapproved.co.uk No PMs please unless i know you or you are using this board with your proper name.

Fair comment, missed that post, This is hypocritical but it might be worth checking the panel in it's last known good configuration without the rio's. "....Not a panel fault more the smart rio inside the 500..." That was my reasoning at Post 20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
