Andrew Averill Posted February 14, 2020 Author Share Posted February 14, 2020 Ok panels off and pics uploaded. The Wires are six core and are marked up as follows- Keypad Landing x2 Bell Speaker Speaker Hall Porch Landing Kitchen Bedroom There are three spare cables marked with a “?” Going no where. I could put a signal down them to trace. Interesting the maximum chain is three. Suppose that’s too many on one six core to wire three PIR’s separately?

You don't have any they are same as before Either you find parts Or you get installer to put in a bus system like hkc Or you go wireless and try and keep some wired bits so hybrid panel Most of this will end up being repetitive , although good to see pictures , conclusion is same scrap it because no one will want to maintain it and you will find your situation harder as time goes Scrap scrap scrap 2 minutes ago, Andrew Averill said: PS we have a 35kg dog to take into account with PIR’s......

Andrew Averill Posted February 14, 2020 Author Share Posted February 14, 2020 Ok so consensus is scrap it, no problem. If a hybrid system, which is the best combination panel and PIR’s keypad etc. The same for a full wireless system, panel & accessories? Don’t care how much as long as its reliable etc etc etc.....
