Hi All

 

I installed a Pyronix Sterling 10, 15yrs ago, which has been a great piece kit however the key pad is on it's way out.  I've done a little research and not been able to source a new keypad (not sure I want to get a used pad). I am after some advice on what are what you guys would suggest as good replacement, I also want to add some remote monitoring to allow me to set/reset etc...

Current setup (all wired):

8 x PIR

6 x Zones

1 x Panic Button

1 x Siren

1 x LCD Keypad

 

If you need additional information to support, just let me know.

All help is appreciated, It'll be good to make an informed decision based on the collective experience.

 

Thanks in advance

euromini or texecom elite would be my choice

Galaxy G2-12, MK7 Keyprox, new 12v 7ah Yuasa battery and LCE module will be the cheapest hard wired IP panel at under £150.

 

Wire 1 zone per sensor.

If you think the Sterling 10 was a great piece of kit you will be amazed by anything not branded Pyronix.

If it's served him well for 15yrs I'd say that it is (putting aside my personal thoughts on Pyronix) brother in law had a Pyronix panel in his house for c20 yrs up to moving, again that's done it's job imo.  

 

I'd look at the Texecom range btw.

Just saying compared to the Sterling 10 everything else is a breeze to program use generally maintain, or even just come out of engineers mode

Fully loaded top of range texecom should be a breeze then

End users don't care about 2 of those 3 and the third they get used to. iirc to set the brother in laws you pressed 2 buttons, (running man and 1 or 0) doesn't get much easier than that.

The diyers do though 

Thanks guys for the quick response, I'll do some more research and may come back for more advice no doubt later on.
