I have just fitted a Galaxy Flex 50 in my house, and it seems to be up and running. 

I would be very grateful for some pointers to resolve a few minor snags.

 

I have a radio fob. Is it capable of doing a Night Set?  - Rather than the Part Set.

(It will be convenient to use this indoors in the evening - Otherwise, I suppose, I can make the Part and Night identical.)

 

I have put an internal siren/speaker by the front door, so I can hear the setting sounds as I leave the house. The keypad is deeper inside the house.

I am not hearing the setting sounds on the speaker. I had expected this to duplicate the sounds from the keypad.

Have I missed a setting? Any suggestions for fault finding if it's in the wiring?

 

Thanks

Think you need to set part set option for night, if you get me 

 

Does the speaker do the end beep?

Thanks. Good to know for sure.

I probably don't need both Night and Part sets. One will be enough.

 

I don't hear anything from the speaker.

Which tones should I get?

Are there any settings relating to this. I couldn't find anything.

I have not checked the wiring or speaker yet.

Ok start on wiring , where have you connected it , I do t know the flex much , but settings I don't think so

Thanks again. 

Good to know there is a fault, before setting out to trace it.

Another quick question ...

 

Can radiofobs be associated with 2 separate alarm systems, well out of range of each other?

 

And also other MAX fobs and cards?

 

Thanks!

I see no reason why not, esp with the MAX.

 

For the RF fobs I guess you would have to be sure that you don't use the fob more than 256 times at one site before returning to the other, as that could upset the rolling code...

Unless they are 2 way, in which case I am unsure of the answer.

I thought it will work fine 

 

Only fibs that don't are some texecom ones , something about them writing to the fob Inna certain condition , can never remember what though

I believe they are written to just once on registration, preventing them being cloned so easily?
