sixwheeledbeast Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 All down to if it's wired DP or EOL. More systems are wired EOL, inverting the wires shouldn't make a difference so maybe something is loose/shorting out. Selectable you will have to make sure they are compatible with your panel normally you cut a link within them, or you can get ones with screw terminals which you can fit your resistors in. 1 Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/42090-gardtec-800-part-set-procedure/page/3/#findComment-476628 Share on other sites More sharing options...

magpye Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 The strands along with the core of the yellow wire need to go correctly under the screw also, basic stuff needs a bit of practice. It also looks as though you have nicked the yellow insulation. Someone told me I was ignorant and apathetic, I don't know what that means, nor do I care.
