Is obsolete but if its been looked after is useable. Or put a flex or a 2-20 in its its place. YOu can then reuse your keypad but id update your detection, bell etc Yeah it says 16+ on the large chip in the middle of the PCB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin1208 Posted March 1 Author Share Posted March 1 Hi Thank you all for your advice. We've decided to replace the ageing GALAXY 16+ and ditch the idea of trying to keep the existing keypad as I can't find any installers willing to fit any Galaxy products.( only Visionic/Scantronix/Pyronix Euro 46 have been mentioned) I'll be getting a system professionally installed and hopefully utilising existing cabling (prewired when house was built in Year 2000) Looking to get all existing motion sensors/Door contacts/Keypad and siren replaced, essentially we need a 4 zone wired system with 3 PIRs 1 door contact, no monitoring or fancy Apps required. Would be grateful for your recomendations for a reliable basic alarm to meet those requirements please. Cheers Col Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixwheeledbeast Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 I'd be surprised a house with a flush keypad fitted would only need 3 sensors... If your having a company in it's no good recommending kit, they will use what they support. If you found somewhere reliable that supports Galaxy then less repair work. Usual recommendation is 3 quotes, go with the place that makes you feel the most comfortable NOT just the cheapest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
