BveshPatel Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 This topic maybe exhausted but I couldn't find s definite answer hence why I am asking the question ; On a scantronic 9651, software version 4 can you have multiple magnetic door contacts on the same zone using FSL? I have currently tried this however I am getting tamper each time a contact is opened and wondered what could be the cause as I have tripled checked the terminations and can't seem to find the fault. I am able to exit engineers mode without any tamper however when a contact is opened it goes directly into tamper, however if I have just one contact connected it works fine. I am using 4k7 for alarm and 2k2 for tamper. Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/39711-multiple-reed-contacts-fsl/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
datadiffusion Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 No version of Scantronic allows multiple FSL on one zone, at least, not without modified wiring as per the manufacturers instructions i.e Elmdene, Knight etc... Galaxy I believe does allow multiple 1k/1k contacts on one zone with no modification. So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/39711-multiple-reed-contacts-fsl/#findComment-439862 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BveshPatel Posted February 4, 2016 Author Share Posted February 4, 2016 There maybe a little bit of a confusion here. It's not multiple FSL but rather two contacts on a single zone is using FSL/EOL where the last contact has the 2k2 resistor in and the first contact only has a 4k7 resistor.

james.wilson Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 That wouldn't work anyway unless you mean zone doubling. Only panel I know that does this is the cpx as it's never used anymore securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

J&D Security Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Sound like you have them wired wrong. check the manual again should have single leaf and double leaf wiring diagrams. You'll need to bring 1 leg of the first resistor across with another core. janddsecurity@live.co.uk Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/39711-multiple-reed-contacts-fsl/#findComment-439888 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BveshPatel Posted February 4, 2016 Author Share Posted February 4, 2016 Would it matter if the contacts do not have a specific tamper terminal?

datadiffusion Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 No, just loop in. But by using proper contacts like Knight https://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/knight-g2-surface-contact-with-tact-tamper-and-selectable-res-p-3868.html Its all done for you anyway.

Adi Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 i wired 4 knights eol on one zone last week (2 sets of fire doors, linking 2 zones together in the control panel) fun and games were had then, never again. Would have been cheaper for me to buy an expander. I really can't be ar**** with it anymore.
