Galaxy 8 - a few questions

Hi everyone, once again thanks for your input.

I understand your concerns here, I'm in I.T and the amount of work that's being off-shored is frightening, some of the code that comes back is very good quality but some is abysmal especially when it is to be used in validated systems.

I had the Galaxy 8 panel lying around anyway (donated from a relly) and thought it would be a waste to not use it - particularly since it has such a good reputation.

Thanks for the advice given, I'll persevere and hopefully the Odyssey manual will explain how to connect it to the panel.

cheers

Dave

If it does not, someone here will be happy to go through the connections & programming with you ;)

i,ve checked the manual - there are 5 connections a b c d s which are all itemised in the manual. with your hopefully gained knowledge from working on the test bed you should have no problem finding the right combination.

ps i found the manual by doing a search for texecom oddysey sounders in google and it wasnt in any protected places so i arnt given any info that can,t be found by joe public

if you read the manual in more depth it tells you about the tamp and what /where to connect. depending on how you have been testing the galaxy it should be self obvious where it goes

as i am sure you know by now the tamper return is the signal the sab (BELL) sends to the c/u unit - usually a negative.

if the negative is lost the alarm will indicate bell tamper
