  1. I like netgear so why not a non cheapo one of those?
  2. I disagree Al. Most home have some ha just nothing to do with the alarm Co.
  3. I've been playing with it, I started with home assistant then tasmota on sonoff. Have a look it's certainly not above yours h https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-home-assistant-websocket
  4. You are exiting engineers to find the module?
  5. Seems we might get along, on the trade thing I'm sure they take 33 in a 30 just as serious
  6. All i can say is apply the same logic to everything else in your home. Id like to know the ages of everything else. We dont say it needs to be replaced to do what you want for profit to us, your here posting no-one is making any money. You still have an old system none of us here would have in our homes. I moved into a house with ts 900 10 years ago. Its gone. I have a v2 hw 1070 now a 10270 due to firmware upgrades. When i cant upgrade firmware i get rid. This is the bit of kit i trust to protect my home and all around it (granted its linked to HA)
  7. Im more suprised its not setup how you want, ie spelling issues etc, being shot is SA does not
  8. Pete is that why when the wind blows I swear I hear gun's?
  9. Id suggest you start a new topic about this
  10. When first powered up its in a test mode showing open circuits. Once you clear them all it will then go to rest / day mode. One option is to remove all circuit wiring (marking up first and take a photo) then link out all to prove the panel. If the panel functions with all circuits, tampers etc closed then you have a base point to start from
  11. on power up from new (if you reset it then its the same sort of thing) it will show active circuits till you press a button etc. Whats concerning me is the fact its not accepting the default code. If its that old it wont have an engineer code. Just the user code.
  12. It is knocking on though an optima compact gen4 isnt exactly much. Old yes useless maybe not, worth spending much time on, no. But depends how much you need it and how important reliability is. Is also god a horrid cheap battery on it that certainly wont help if it was ever 2.2Ah id be astounded
  13. you have the wrong manual thats an original compact as it only has 6 zones.
  14. It looks like you have used a optima gen4 manual on a non gen4 optima. What optima do you have? If its pre xm you may have just blown it
  15. Assuming you have set the relevant circuit correctly then it may have an nvm issue. It's very old now
  16. agreed but 2000 ohms is a lot. I would expect it to be the pir but if you test the tamper switch at 200 ohms this will confirm, testing set on 200k wont show a high reading. It should be very close to 0.3 ohms (not 0.3 K Ohms) plus whatever size the built in series resistor ir (not the ones in the terminals) you could try adding something to the red dot to adjust the close point if the case is slightly twisted
