menvier m12 and psu question


Recommended Posts

the expander is plugged onto the molex pins on the board and thats what i really don't understand as it has been tripped before from cooking and stuff and has sounded the alarm but i really don't understand why it hasn't tripped this time,

 

unless for some reason it has sent a spike through the system and cooked the detectors and expander card?

Or you deleted it off system ?

i don't think i have i haven't been messing around with it for years,

i know the expander card works or at least some of it does because i had someone try to kick in my front door today and i had to push the panic button which worked fine so this seems to be a mystery, i have ordered a new power supply so lets see if this fixes it

What happened to the door kicker ? And did your panic button reset or snap?

well he pretty much left after the alarm went off, and of course it's broken it's an old panic button lol the key is long lost and i have to remove the cover to reset it

 

also i replaced the psu and the system is working again and being complicated and awkward like i am i wired the fault output from the new psu into the panel and set it up as a technical alarm just so i know if anything happens again
