Reddwarf4ever Posted July 8, 2019 Author Share Posted July 8, 2019 (edited) Thanks i was previously planning to remove the smokes from the system myself and find a way t disconnect the cables. looks like I will pay for some help, but managed to remove the first smoke detector using engineer mode, but now can’t work out how to make it active again ( unremove it) can you help with the steps in engineer mode to a ode to activate this smoke again p l e a s e.....plus steps to remove contacts in engineer mode in case I need to remove PIR in the future......Risco said page 84 of the manual, but would be great if the steps to add a contact and remove a contact could be listed for me... thanks engineer mode Yes prigram zones Yes Enter zone number Tes this is where I need the steps p l e a s e..... incidently the gardtec 840 was installed 1987 and upgraded 2003 so the smokes are 16 years old it is hanging on, both the keypads have lost their front flip covers, the rear bellbox plastic is very fragile...and the control panel has had the PSU from the dialler jumped across , as the main control panel PSU blew....so its all working, just getting old.

datadiffusion Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 (edited) true dat Not seen one in the wild for a few years now, but can always make out that Gardtec exit tone when I hear some shonky old shop shutting up for the night 3 hours ago, Reddwarf4ever said: incidently the gardtec 840 was installed 1987 r u sure? I am guessing you have, or have had, the oblong keypads then?

Reddwarf4ever Posted July 9, 2019 Author Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) Yes that’s the keypads...... can anyone one help me with the engineer sequence to remove and add zones ? P l e a s e have the manual, but the YES NO options get a bit confusing, I am capable, I am to programming, but just need a little help. thanks in advance... PS the displays are crystal clear.....and I am certain as I can be it was installed in 1987 as it was installed as the house was being built, which was in 1987......why does the year sound strange ???

james.wilson Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 That panel didn't exist in 1987 Plus it's the later style the old one was rectangular and had 3 different case options Quote securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

Reddwarf4ever Posted July 9, 2019 Author Share Posted July 9, 2019 If it is the contaur 6 keypad, what year do you guess at ? i had an upgrade in 2003, don’t remember the keypads being changed, but who knows.....my memory doesn’t LOL if it had ACE would I then have a Fob ? Which I don’t have..... found the engineer contact remove procedure....... Enter engineer codePress yesProg zone yesProg zone type yesEnter zone number which is to be turned offPress noYesYesPress no until it says offPressYesPress 0/esc until you come out of engineer mode.Just need a way to identify the smoke connections in the control panel, I know the zone numbers, but don’t know if the zones are numbered in the control panel, or maybe there are special connections just for smokes.....now I can remove the zones in the program, just need to remove the cabling at the control panel any help please ?
