Quote he has probably is costing more than standalones, so he probably thinking get rid them as he doesn't want extra ones on ceiling , then goes buys £5 smokes which still works out cheaper all the smokes plus the £75+vat , than having them replaced, system tested and so on
Dude a tip for you
Apart from me recieving my 7ahs "today" and you didn't lol
If you need the stuff quicker, put in comments send part shipment if items not in stock and you will get your stuff quicker and the rest you can do what you need to do
You do any work these days or just surfing the net?
Yes it does lol
Make zones unused or spare , then flaff around with it and hop you don't blow a fuse or something
On a side note put linked smokes and you can still link it to the alarm
Doing above means you can remove all of them leave cables as is , protect all the ends incase you have them put back
And then fit whatever junk you want
Enter engineering mode and remove both portal and rio from the system.
2. Exit engineering mode and remove the devices from the config when prompted.
3. Set the RIO address to 2 and add back to the bus.
4. Enter eng mode and menu 72 to detect the device.
5. Add the portal and then menu 72 to detect it.
You didn't do this yet tho
I wonder do Honeywell make it this way because they are trying to keep the dimension compatible with the G2 and flex and so on but they still can't get it right for the average DIY user
Even complicated for installers
All the cheap ones normally fail quickly anyway
Problem with these units IP rating on the sensor itself isn't very good
I do am arf and put a plastic cover over them like a rain sheild works well
I want to try the bowls one day ......
