tinnitus Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Hi guys, I have a galaxy system split over two floors, keypad on each floor. Both floors have been split into groups, 1 and 2. Is it possible to designate floor 1 keypad to group 1 (floor 1) and that is the only set point for that floor and the other keypad to the other group and that will only set that group (2nd floor) effectively 2 separate systems. It would be great if we could use the same fob or code on both floors without selecting the group. Also, I’m assuming the exit tone will still be heard on both floors at the same time? They are wired into separate outputs. thanks in advance guys, sorry for the long drawn out post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james.wilson Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 use group restrict on the max, keypad and user. Program the user to both groups. re the sounder just program as e/e horn for each group Quote securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

tinnitus Posted January 29, 2020 Author Share Posted January 29, 2020 Tell me it’s not just assigning the group to the keypad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james.wilson Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 it is. But you need to add group restrict to the users too Quote securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

Do I not need to assign each keypad to the group in menu 58? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you need to add group restrict to the users too So when I’m in user codes, I go to the user, modify group, then what? I’m assuming the user should have both groups but no “*”, that way they can set both groups without a choice but the keypad is what decides the group? Also, do I now need to disable groups again in menu 62? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinnitus Posted January 29, 2020 Author Share Posted January 29, 2020 That was hard work! Setting up the fobs to work the same way was in a completely different menu. It all worked in the end. thanks for the help guys, really appreciate it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve23 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Hi @tinnitus I was thinking of setting groups up on mine but couldn't see what benefit I would get. It's it only really helpful if you have a keypad upstairs, I'm only having them downstairs at each door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we had to use areas because the client had an office space split over 2 floors and wanted more flexibility. I can’t see a good reason to use it at home unless you had a completely separate area. I’d say part set and full set are all you need. what did you need to do? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, No there's no specific area I need separate. I'll leave that alone then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
