Intermediate binary? Smartcom was from V4.x, done correctly you should be able to go straight to V6. Flasher includes the binaries now, they're not usually shipped separate although possible.

Do you have the flash tool PCB + the usb lead ?

I have an Elite 48 running legacy V3.02 firmware that I am upgrading for SmartCom support. My local Wintex structure does not contain the old flashing tools. Can anyone pPlease provide a direct download link or file transfer for the legacy standalone Premier Elite Flasher application along with the V5 intermediate firmware binary? I can request it tomorrow from Texecom but today is my day off and I was hoping to get it done if possible!

why do you want to be on 7.6 ?

Good to know

absolutely direct from Honeywell. Turns out it was due to not doing a default after the firmware upgrade even though the upgrade defaulted the panel (it lost all its settings). but how the 7.06 file can install 7.04 is unknown but clearly without the full coin cell out default it went to an intermediate firmware level.

recently i got an electrician to install some CCTV around my home and I'm chuff with his work. I opted to #removed link# and to be fair it was more cheaper than i thought. 24/7 cctv. power through a wire at all times and backup power. consider blind spots. Just a tip for those who are looking for this kind of service.

We use open VPN on rocky Linux on our hardware and manage the updates. Never used them to link outside the UK but myself over site2site hasn't been a problem for us. Only used with mysql and mariadb though.

Definitely a 7.6 file?

I've upgraded the Galaxy Dimension 48 firmware straight from 7.0 to 7.6 but bizarrely despite using the 7.6 firmware file the panel is reporting 7.4.. I've tried the update twice and no change. Any thoughts what might be causing this?

Thanks @james.wilson Site-to-site OpenVPN was definitely my first instinct for keeping everything on a private tunnel without exposing the controller ports directly to the WAN. My main headache with the trans-continental link is the handshake overhead and packet drop when routing between Europe and Asia. When the tunnel drops momentarily, do you let the remote controllers queue the event logs locally and burst-sync on reconnect, or have you found that OpenVPN handles the session persistence clean enough to prevent database lockups at HQ? Are you usually deploying dedicated hardware routers at each end for the tunnel, or running the VPN client directly on an edge appliance?

I've done it using site to site open vpn

Your not allowed to talk about your employees like that anymore

Relaxing

Hi all, I'm currently mapping out a project for a corporate client with their headquarters here and three manufacturing/logistics hubs across different countries in Europe and Asia. They want a unified system where a manager can issue an access credential (RFID or mobile token) at HQ, and have it immediately active across all sites. My concern is the global database synchronization lag and how local controllers handle offline authentication drift if the WAN link drops mid-sync. For those who have deployed large-scale, cross-border access control: Do you rely on a heavy local edge database at each site that syncs periodically, or are you pushing for full cloud-managed controllers that talk directly to a centralized server? How do you pitch the balance between "Instant Sync" and "Local Survivability" to an IT department that is paranoid about bandwidth consumption and data compliance (like GDPR)? Would love to know what kind of network architecture or hardware logic you've seen hold up best for cross-continental deployments.

just how good is rushless technology ?

Recently bought a new tool Makes me so calm using that tech

Testing the batteries with a meter would be a good start. Suppliers with low turnover of alarm kit often give you duff or discharged batteries. If the new battery is known good, sometimes a power cycle is required.

Are you sure its the panel battery? Where did you purchase the replacement battery, if its been sitting on a shelf for years it will be as flat as the one you replaced it with. How old was the original battery? Anything over four years could have been slowly killing the charging circuit? It could be a resettable fuse on the CPU so as Happy says restart the panel and powering up mains first followed by battery, if that doesnt fix it check the charging circuit next.
