Hi All,

i have Texecom veritas R8 , 6 zones, 3 key pads, 1 bell box texecom.

i have added the texecom speech/text Dialler and it is connected as the installation manual.

 

Telephone works when the Alarm is tested for voice message.

 

But it does not work for Text message.

 

it is all wired up correctly and the Alarm system is working fine.

 

text is not working.

Who is your phone line with?

Don't bother using TAP text messaging it is unreliable.

You'll probably get the messages next week if at all...

Mine is with Vodafone 

it will still be TAP

Well then use the maintained tap service , but it's expensive not worth it for a general txt 

 

Your better off using outputs and connecting to a gsm dialler and get a contract SIM that you don't have to top up, just have an SMS max 

 

Then keep the phone  dialer aswell 

I try to avoid speech diallers,

 

IIRC the last time I had the misfortune of touching a Texecom speech dailer it had all the menu's for texting but was the speech only product.

Yes there are two versions, cheaper speech only (CGA-0001) and speech and text (CGC-0001). The cheaper one does have all the menus too.

being our resident texecom nerd....

 

How old do you reckon that  cheapest made in china  "awarding winning technology" battery is ? 

I recall Texecom stopped selling batteries around 10 years ago?
