Why do you need 22 contacts anyway? You only need to put them on external entries/exits, let the PIR's do their job.

I notice since I installed my new SW 10-70 panel, I haven't had any false alarms. Separate tampers for each zone, so the sum of series resistances is less (11 sensors plus junction boxes, bell box, keypads etc). Maybe the immunity against transients spikes  and  bad connections due to tarnished tamper connections in junction boxes is better?

True story this, today after 3 years in storage we wheeled out our (new at the time) Bosch dishwasher and said goodbye to the crappy built-in one that came with the house.

 

To my annoyance, it went into error 5 minutes after every cycle, even though it had been cleaned and drained before we moved.

 

What was it? The flow switch uses an externally mounted reed over a sealed into the main water jacket rotating wheel with magnet. Jammed shut. Mild percussion maintainance fixed the machine

Not sure, it's two years old. Why do you ask?

Just wondering how you update it , your in Ireland yes? 

 

Updates allow you to use some new devices that come out and fix any issues , although mostly I only needed to update for devices , firmware seems stable otherwise
