Colhay Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Hello, Anyone experience with these Premier Elite IR PIRs (AFD-0001). I just installed a new Premier 48 panel and thought I would change out the old manky looking PIRs that are probably 10 plus years old for some new texecom ones. On power up 2 work fine,3 of the 6 have status LED lit all the time and dont change state during a walk test. The final one has a dim glowing LED but does get bright when activated and seems to work ok during the walk test. They are all wired the same and jumpers were all set the same before power up. Anybody else had problems with these units? Seems a very high failure rate for new units but I fail to see what I could have done to cause any problems to the new units Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/40803-texecom-premier-elite-pir-3-out-of-6-fail-on-power-up/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
al-yeti Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Where you buy them from? Pot? Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/40803-texecom-premier-elite-pir-3-out-of-6-fail-on-power-up/#findComment-456284 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colhay Posted January 7, 2017 Author Share Posted January 7, 2017 Bought from here http://www.easy-light.com/ I will email then on Monday about returning them. Just seems a pretty high fail rate. I would have been better off keeping the old ones Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/40803-texecom-premier-elite-pir-3-out-of-6-fail-on-power-up/#findComment-456286 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixwheeledbeast Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Are they working at the control panel? The dim one maybe the plastic LED prism missing from the cover? Not used them in a while prefer other sensors.

Colhay Posted January 7, 2017 Author Share Posted January 7, 2017 I tried one on a short lead from the control panel and its still the same. As soon as powered up just brings on status LED. All PIRs are getting the same voltage around 13.6V. Maybe I just been unlucky getting a dud batch Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/40803-texecom-premier-elite-pir-3-out-of-6-fail-on-power-up/#findComment-456293 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colhay Posted January 9, 2017 Author Share Posted January 9, 2017 Sorry I should have elaborated. The PIR alarm contacts dont change state at all. Im sending them back there is nothing more I can do with them.
