datadiffusion Posted January 27, 2020 Author Share Posted January 27, 2020 It's Saturday, it's 9pm, it's time for... Timmy Westwood's Alarm Roundup! Now, is this actually a whole panel in a double gang plate, a bit like the A1 2-zoner that fitted entirely within a thick 2 gang faceplate, or just a very old skool keypad requiring 2 x 8 cores to connect?

datadiffusion Posted February 6, 2020 Author Share Posted February 6, 2020 (edited) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/124073127497?ul_noapp=true Another dreamer... a shame as that battery internal speaker, which only ever worked with that panel, was quite quickly discontinued IIRC. I'll stop at using the word 'rare' though. I also seem to remember the size of it is due to it taking about 20 D cells "Cost a lot when installed". Yeah, well my 1992 Astra was £10500 at the time, however... Oddly they still do a Homelink 75 like system, the i-On 40 Style, which obviously supports all the latest wireless sirens etc... and has cloud. Never seen one in the wild.

MrHappy Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 a common use would be a 24hr circuit on say a wine / spirit store in the cellar in public house anyone opening the door would set the alarm off, a zone omit module would permit authorised people to use set the 24hr circuit & access the store. There a 2 types, one with key on the front & one controlled by an external switch normally a 5 lever chubb lock in the door The common method was contact on the door with cc wiring inside under hardboard, operating the chubb lock turned off of the circuit secure the lock on the door turned the alarm back on Quote Mr Veritas God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
