al-yeti Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 4 minutes ago, RevolvingSteve said: I am going to have to move 2 x PIR onto 1 zone (failed to take into account the final zone on its own door contact). TBH I almost put both upstairs PIR's onto 1 zone to start with so it was easier to omit/exclude them from the night arming, so I'm not bothered about now putting them onto 1 zone. How would I adjust the wiring on zone 11 & 12 given to compile them onto 11, I have the PIR's internally wired like the image below. Obviously replace '1' 0v '2' with 11 & 12! How many devices you have in total contacts and pirs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevolvingSteve Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 11 x PIR'2, 2 x Door Contacts My other option is just to leave the other (Non Final) door contact for now and replace with a Wireless one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So buy an expander as you have a 20 zone panel I thought Edited January 19, 2019 by al-yeti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevolvingSteve Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) Yes it is, I just don't have the expander to hand so was trying to get it finished today, didn't see a major issue with putting 2x onto 1 zone as they are just 'upstairs' and the manual states it supports unto 10 devices per zone, so I can't be the only person wanting to do this? I am the one with no knowledge here though, so if there is a good reason why this should not be done, just say, its all learning for me!

Steve Don't that's worst mistake Work out which sensors you need on now Think about where you want expander which may just be next to control panel and order one You will just open more fault finding problems trying to get eol working on sensors paired up when you don't need to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! I'll leave one of the upstairs PIR off for now and order the RIO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevolvingSteve Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 Arghh I removed the door contact and can't remember how I wired it as it only has black/red wire. I think this was just across the zone number and 0v as they don't need 12v? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good bloke you can then also get an RF card later I believe and have wireless zones , unless you already have that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
