James R Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Hi all, got an install coming up - galaxy flex panel with dt pirs Any advice from anyone who has fitted these? Not my choice, it's been specced by others. Honeywell programming software looks like it costs an F-ing fortune. What's up with that?

I installed classic galaxy for years and always used the keypad, never had an issue just used to carry one on a flylead and find somewhere comfortable to do it. Even better doing it on the bench in the comfort of your office. Quote Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If port forwarding for use with the GX app, you can only lock down the RSS and UMS passwords with RSS at the moment. In saying that, the best advice is to use a VPN rather than opening ports up.

One question, got an ip module that's been specced - would that just connect to customers network to be able to use the app? Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also specced a gsm/gprs comms module - we are setting up radio/radio Dualcom for keyholder monitoring, I take it there's no need for the honeywell module as well?

No, but it can be used for direct SMS. The Ethernet module can be used for the gx app, allowing remote control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can avoid the app do so , it's messy , the selfmon virtual keypad might do them if they want to set from bed lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
