Mdc15 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Hi, We have had a pm360 system with the gateway box and a seperate keypad to set the alarm with (nothing visual at all). We have had the system for nearly 3 years and I am looking at alternatives. Will it be cheaper / easier to purchase a new system entirely, or will it be better to do a full hard reset of the adt system to try and use it as a standalone visonic alarm? (once the contract has been cancelled of course. I am tech savvy, no issues with fiddling with things! Thanks, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixwheeledbeast Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Pretty sure Visonic ADT is not compatible with off the shelf Visonic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mdc15 Posted August 14, 2019 Author Share Posted August 14, 2019 Exactly this is what made me suspicious, if it was locked to ADT then their wouldn't be a second hand market on ebay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixwheeledbeast Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 People put any old tat on ebay. It would be the only place to buy it, if you think about it that way. Bit like second hand Sterling keypads and iD biscuits for example... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything this probably increases the value on the likes of eBay, they do use a slightly different freq, not locked but only compatible with like for like rx.

Just search visonic ADT on eBay plenty available , used and new But you need to find out how much ADT charge to reset it for you , or you can try and default it yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
