  1. Attributes for each Zone I would expect only (Omittable and Access to be on) Version number should be on a sticker on the main processor. Or menu and 4 together You "may" have run into a software bug if you are on version 5.01.02, this was patched in 5.02
  2. Is it an intermittent issue? Do you have any other attributes enabled? Are you running firmware V5.01.02?
  3. You are manually omitting those circuits that's how it should work, omits are temporary. Permanent changes are done with programming or wiring them out.
  4. Do the buttons not function at all (no beep) when you press them? Or is it just the wrong code.
  5. The posts above cover everything. It's a TS series Menvier. Could be either a 590 690 700 790, either way...
  6. You are relying on your employees but you wouldn't have taken them on in the first place if you didn't have some trust in them. Your going to struggle to stop people keeping there own lists but this is only the same as having individual passwords for every website login which is recommend. Having the "app" on your company website behind an engineer login portal is another option.
  7. Unlikely to be possible if the bell is in full working order.
  8. That's the idea. The seed wouldn't be known and if the engineer left the company they wouldn't have access to it.
  9. The way I understand it, audio must specifically be required for the original crime prevention purpose you need at design stage. Saying that you have realised audio is enabled means there was no requirement to have audio so therefore should be disabled. The quote above covers it word for word. Maybe in the grand scheme of things no-one notices or cares for years, but when an event happens and evidence is released that will be when it all boils over, with a good chance the local authority may enforce complete removal. Leaving you with no system.
  10. Any panel can be put in wrong, different areas seem to have there own sparky panel of choice. Kit options as in the panel is modular by design with an array of module options for every problem. The aesthetics of all the kit is far superior too. Some of the things I remember are lack of:- wiring types, custom outputs, output types, users, log events and on the bigger panels Areas and Zones which is a niche use case but I have fitted 640's in the past.
  11. Didn't rate any of the HKC stuff I am sure it's functional but to me it's not a flexible both on kit options and programming to the Premier. I did a HKC course a few years back and fitted a couple software is nothing to rave about IMO. I have less and less care for GUI in software like this as time goes on, give me a panel I can program from a terminal I'd be happy. I would prefer browser based just from a open perspective not seen Eaton yet, I know the Texe software will work without Windows with the correct lead so no need to jump anywhere if this continues.
  12. Sure I have said this before but there are two things with the Texecom menu structure that I think confuses people. *The first is there are multiple ways to do the same thing or reach the same menu *The menu structure has been consistent since pre EN, so many more features have been put into there respective menus they could be confusing to find. IMO both of these things only affects the casual users, it's completely logical for someone that fits them regularly. For example all the main menu options on the Premier do have a numbered shortcut and these have also been kept consistent over the years as above, you don't have to scroll around if you know these. I rarely break out the laptop to program them, can program most of them quicker then I could boot a laptop up with Wintex.
  13. If Texe so hard I have no idea why it's popular with the DIYers but whatever.
  14. Oh wait a minute I misread your post, sorry Front Door needs the last attribute called "Guard" enabled.
  15. I heard Mr. H is renting out the DeLorean at a decent rate.
  16. If the seed to make the engineer code is that easy then I wouldn't say it's worth the effort. It's a little bit better to stop someone reading it off the panel to learn all your codes (possible but unlikely) but beyond that it's too easy to share the seed info which ideally shouldn't be known.
  17. You can take all the pictures you want but you will not find a replacement at the wholesalers everything TS series is obsolete. I agree with above who says it's faulty? Possible XY problem?
  18. Good practice but not mandatory. Inspectors may suggest it but again not mandatory. Large companies just end up with lists of codes, as your unlikely to be able to swap every site. Some companies use either POTD or some random engineer code generator from a seed like the customer number, makes it harder remember them all. More importantly stops others having a handful of codes to all your sites.
  19. You could be right, I believed it was part of PD6662, I maybe mistaken? Texecom must have interpreted that a part set banner is allowed?
  20. Can't remember if disabling some EN50131 settings in Global can do it but it's designed to conform to EN50131 OOTB. The part arm banner will display if part armed, signalling will be disabled on part set so will conform. You could clear it or make it the same as the normal banner message if you don't want it.
  21. If they are on the Expander then you have to also assign the expander to A and B in the same way too. Not clear what you want to adjust RE banner message but it's part of the regs that the display doesn't show if an Area is armed
  22. My guess is an Arduino or some other SBC?
