Jack b Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Can any one help me with identifying a few of these terminals on this old ADT box. PID and anti drill. Also does the tube markings mean i can have an extra xenon tube for an inside flash if someone were to get inside the box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the main pcb board it has toplok uk so i assume the bell box is a Toplok box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norman Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 It's an old ADT box, pre merger between Thorn and Modern when they went with the Elmdene Rapier for their HS applications. Batt shows 1993 so well before the 1997 (ish) merger. Quote Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pid connections are for connection to a pid(point interface device) bit like a galaxy rio ,used on very old ADT focus panels which were way ahead of their time back in the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
