breff Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 You have 2 zones in each keypad+ 8 in panel=12, just needs a 12 core to each keypad. The opinions I express are mine and are usually correct!

Guest Dobbin Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Glen. I don't need an expander after all. Do I need the 12 core from the keypad to the control panel or the control panel to the device? What core cable do I need generally? By the way I got a good quote from Alert but a great quote from Safedirect.

breff Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Either wire devices to the keypads in 8 core or wire them all to the control panel and join them at the control panel to a 12 core going to the keypad using 4 cores for the keypad and the other 8 to carry the 2 zones and tampers.

Guest Dobbin Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Just working out where to place the sensors and I need some more advice. Can a sensor be placed in a south facing conservatory or will it get too hot and cause a malfunction (or false alarm)? If yes what sort of sensor would be best?

Dobbin 63332[/snapback] A dual tech detector is probably your best bet for a conservatory. That way, the temperature won't really affect it if it has been set up properly. You could also go with a few shock sensors on the window frames, but because there are so many possible points of intrusion in a conserv, volumetric (ie a dual tech) is probably your best bet.

breff Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Make sure it also has a white light filter. The opinions I express are mine and are usually correct!

Guest Dobbin Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 I am planning on using the Texecom Mirage Dual Tech Sensor. I have checked the brochure on the Texecom website but I cannot see any reference to White Light Filter. Anyone know if this Sensor has a white light filter?
