I thought it was totally unambiguous. So do you have the engineer code and access the settings , this isn't a panel I know well But now your saying you have removed the board and that's why the fault came up Can you not put the board back and then just remove line reporting? As as above then you can connect pins for signalling 13 minutes ago, PeterJames said: Stop talking in riddles and just say what you want to do FFS If you cant un program the LF just link it out its not rocket science Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteGBR Posted September 12, 2020 Author Share Posted September 12, 2020 Just one endstation, 3 keypads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterJames Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Was it a plug on Dcom? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteGBR Posted September 12, 2020 Author Share Posted September 12, 2020 The truth is i'm whipped by the company i work for - So spending hours on site messing about with something that was installed in 2000 is not really healthy for me. I thought I would research the panel before i went back to site like a professional. But I reallised that amongst the 100's of manuals I have accumulated over the last 30 years in this industry I don't have a Castle 2500 installation and wiring manual. I Need to resolve it though.

PeteGBR Posted September 12, 2020 Author Share Posted September 12, 2020 Ahh. Working out from description is hard i know. I took pictures for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteGBR Posted September 12, 2020 Author Share Posted September 12, 2020 (edited) Hmmm... I wonder if that Digi still works. Dial capture may work. Will still need a manual to do that. I have a Gradeshift interface board - But the dualcom is 20 metres away in the attic to get signal.

MrHappy Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 if the dualcom is in the loft & is working.... the modem may have been for downloading, remove it or find a something to make it think its connected to a telephone line ?

sixwheeledbeast Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 There is no way to disable the line monitoring with a plug on DC58, you would have to put a line on it and hope it's in low security mode. Surely just ditching the DC58 will stop the line fault? Certainly the case on a TS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteGBR Posted September 12, 2020 Author Share Posted September 12, 2020 Removing the gateway module previously fault caused a line fault. I'm not familiar with the 2500 at all past testing the alarm at service. I doubt the line fault is returned back from the dualcom either. The gateway board is supposed to be an ethernet adapter but is probably causing the existing line fault. I want to remove it and I'm asking where in the menu's I can find the flag to stop the endstation looking for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james.wilson Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 The gateway module is the master keypad. The extra pins on the plugon footprint is the 485 for it. You can remove the modem from it though Quote securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
