MDT/Avanti Keypad alternative?

Recommended Posts

Hi, I have a wired alarm system based around an Avanti LC panel with a range of sensors and currently 2 keypads. I would like to add a third keypad so I can set the alarm from the garage door but I understand my system is now obsolete. Is there a suitable replacement for the MDT alarm keypad? or is it a case of replacing the panel and the keypads but retaining the sensors I have?

Any help would be much appreciated

The best replacement would be something like a Scantronic 9651, Pyronix Euro Mini, or Texecom Premier type system.

 

The cheapest would be the first 2, but all of them will work with your original wiring, bell and keypads - you will need 3 new keypads though.

 

However, you might like to take the opportunity to add internet 'cloud' type connection to your system, which would be a big and useful upgrade.

So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands

Not quite, for Scantronic (AKA Eaton) would would need an I-On 40H (not just i-On 40) which is a very similar to the 9561 but much better, the Euro Mini I don't think supports it, the Texecom you need

to add a SmartCom unit (I believe other members - they are not on board now are they?).
