Hi has anybody taken over one of these it also has a door entry system on it.

Yea take over a few over the years.

Guardall panel no longer made, I have installed them in the past didnt like them that much then, I wouldnt want to take one on now. We look after group of leisure centres and two of the bigger sites have Chubb looking after the intruder, every year the customer asks us to take them over, and I keep giving them a price to replace the panel, it never gets any cheaper and Chubb keep the contract.

As I remember they were a bit a of bugger to program two phone menus one for the built in digi the other was for dialer and both very similar I often made the mistake of being in the wrong one 

If it's a Chubb panel it will have a rolling engineer code. You will need an AVRISP2 In-system programmer and the UK firmware from Guardall to change the firmware from Chubb. A lot of pain really. I maintain about 100 of them. Jim

In a nutshell sounds like not worth it for a single panel

Guardall use EOL 8K2 in parallel. I've changed a few out to Texecom Elite panels and left the EOL's as Guardall values. If you program the panel zones to 4K7/4K7,  it works fine. Jim

Not worth taking it over if it's one or two systems with those in and even then you'll need to flash it.

better off swapping it out. 

 

The speaker outputs on them go sometimes -goes into full alarm even when unset without warning.
