Gardtec 872 panel LCD screen broken


Recommended Posts

if you do if for a living its easy enough

 

the fault with normally be, cable, device or controls

 

is their power at every keypad ?

 

no = check power is provided for the keypads at the controls / power supplies

 

then check wiring & the data line is terminated with 680omhn (or whatever) ect..

 

should the wiring prove okay, put each 1 keypad on data bus at the panel on short length of wire with 680omhn resistor (or whatever) to terminate the data , if every keypad don't work its probably the controls

 

if you can afford a dog & home / property big enough for 4 keypads, you be in position for the maintainer of your security system to pop along during the week & short it out for you ?

Lcd fails on these panels frequently, they still make 4 wire keypads but if your keypads are 6 wire then its time to think about updating the system its close to 30 years old now and they stopped making the early ones well over ten years ago.

 

That said if you live in a house that needs four keypads then maybe you should consider having the system updated and under a service contract anyway. Im not saying you have anything worth stealing, or that you will be targeted, but the bigger the property the higher chance of non oppurtunist burglary.
