'Garage' for example I am happy to have both PIR on 1 zone. Thought that was OK, but please advise if Im being dumb! So you need to buy a Rio to expand the wired zones Galaxyguy if your reading? Is flex20 same as g series you can use any zone as wired and wireless If that's correct buy a Rio , expand fully and then do what you have to do Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/42521-honeywell-galaxy-flex-20-pir-wiring/page/2/#findComment-480902 Share on other sites More sharing options...

RevolvingSteve Posted January 12, 2019 Author Share Posted January 12, 2019 Right, after 3 weeks of Xmas madness I got back onto this today. Fired the alarm up and I have one fault which is 'Tamper O/C' on zone 12 (1018 from memory), which is the door contact for the back door. The issue I have is that the door contacts only have 2 wires (Black/Red) so they don't seem to have a tamper circuit or anywhere to fit a resistor? I presume this is done at the board, but should the resistor just be inline on the '12' terminal?

I'd assume your mickey mouse contacts could be made usable with a jb or soldiering iron ?

Yep, maybe I just bought the wrong ones! Ive just checked and here: https://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/intruder-alarm-c-36/door-contacts-switches-c-36_44/cqr-grade-3-white-surface-door-contact-with-magnetic-detection-p-4714.html It seems to imply they do have resistors? Am I just being thick?

RevolvingSteve Posted January 12, 2019 Author Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) Looking at this page:https://www.cqr.co.uk/images/stories/cqr_pdf/Magnetic Contacts/Surface Contacts.pdf Looks like I've ordered the wrong one! They are pre-wired but Ive got type B: Type B Resistor (For Scantronic, Cooper, Pyronix PCX, Texecom, Castle-Care Tec G3+) [SC513/WH/G3/B] - 4k7 Ohm Switch, 2k2 Ohm Tamper I need Type A: Type A Resistor (For Honeywell, Microtech (Galaxy) - 1k Ohm Switch, 1k Ohm Tamper Rookie error I think!

MrHappy Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 program the values to suit the contact ?

Your panel came with resistors somuse them dude if that makes sense Someone's already done a drawing somewhere here Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/42521-honeywell-galaxy-flex-20-pir-wiring/page/2/#findComment-481988 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to consult the manual.... 8 minutes ago, al-yeti said: Your panel came with resistors somuse them dude if that makes sense Someone's already done a drawing somewhere here The drawing is mine, but that's fine for the PIR's, this is for door contacts with resistors moulded into the unit so I cant get to them.
