You do realise we all have nothing better to do?.....

You probably posted as a guest? I havnt seen the post to enable it?

Hi everyone! I'm new here! I'm just an ordinary bloke with a little bit of electrical / electronics knowledge. I wanted to ask a couple of questions about replacing the battery inside a Securit 800L+ Control Panel, so I posted to the "DIY Installers" section about a week ago. When I pressed the "Submit Topic" button, however, a message appeared that said something like "Your new topic will be verified before appearing in the forum." (I don't remember the exact wording, but it was something like that.) Is there something else that I am supposed to do in order for my post to appear? Thank you for your help!

This is more of an ad then a question kind of post

did you know this post was from 2016?

I can remember the Crompton Parkinson battery factory on the banks of the Tyne at South Shields, late 80's

If it hasnt been serviced in a while its probably battery, replacing the battery may fix it. However, a good battery would have lasted 8 hours, so your battery is pretty poor, and if your battery has been that bad for a while it would have degraded the charging circuit, which means that the charging circuit wont charge your new battery.

I'd assume you have a fault in place check if you do. Also when was it last serviced

Electricity was off for 55 mins after it was turned on the alarm panel is showing tamper but it won't accept my code

Now for cherry coment- I reckon the bloke who fitted it will dead..

Yeah, it's quite old. I didn't think the bell box design dated back that early. Plus it's plastic coated so I thought maby mid to late 70s

1972 on the battery!

Bought this recently. It's configured as a tenement alarm. So the keyswitch on the side would arm and disarm the bell box. Very very old.

I don't like dark mode either , effects my sun tan

Dont like dark mode but the buttons at the bottom are handy

If you set most of the options in theme settings to classic it looks fine. Very customisable from the user perspective. Dark mode and mobile OOTB is a great improvement.

Buy sensors with compatible FSL resistors built in if you haven't started already.

This is the thread your looking for. https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/35485-programming-texecom-premier-elite-without-a-usb-com-or-pc-com/ It's TTL at the COM port, a search will find online resources on this topic. As an installer it's not worth the effort to make up these.

Hi all, I'm currently consulting for a client with 5 small satellite offices across the region. They are struggling with the manual overhead of updating user permissions at each site. Every time they hire someone new or a staff member leaves, someone has to VNC into local servers or, worse, travel to the site to update the standalone controllers. They are asking about moving to a Centralized Cloud-based system, but their IT security lead is worried about "real-time visibility" and what happens if the local internet goes down. For those of you managing multi-site installs, are you seeing a major shift toward Cloud centralization lately? How do you sell the 'Real-Time' benefit to the IT guys without triggering their fears about network reliability and data privacy? Is the reduction in truck rolls worth the potential security trade-offs in your experience?

by me but gone

Tagging it on this topic... Maybe a mod could put it the correct topic ? Fitted internally 😁

You can buy a 3rd party one or generic one which has the pin end loose for the panel end F22art or whatever the lead is detected as in windows ?

Thanks James....I just did some research and you are right, there is a 12v pin. Im just after the TX RX and Gnd (Not the 12v)so hopefully shall be good.....

they may look identical but the pin layout may be different check this first, o think there is power on the port
