    yes any sab needs a permanent 'hold off' supply

    Hello and welcome back
  3. james.wilson
    where did you look?
  4. james.wilson
    visit here from a security nerd point see how much detection you can see, top points for the disguised stuff you can find
  5. james.wilson
    Someone has done you down then, im afraid it was past it 20 years ago
  6. james.wilson
    Mic levels too high and feedback. Plus is the on hook switch broke / need adjusting?
  7. james.wilson
    Doors shut at night, draught from anywhere near the sensor, open fire Place?
  8. james.wilson
    also your z4 tamper is that. Its the last signal the panel recieved it is waiting for a tamper restore to clear it. Turning the battery off will ensure it cant send any signals
  9. james.wilson
    i dont, without knowing the cause just slowing down the sensor is hiding the issue and making for a potential no detection
  10. james.wilson
    yeah cant show coverage to level 1 users. How you do this when doing a walk test without emptying the building is another issue
  11. james.wilson
    you wont be able to, but if went it tamper before and you havnt reset it, it may be locked out so wont go off anyway
  12. james.wilson
    qfa good point my bad you have a tmaper fault that will need to be found and restored or bypassed to test the panel. It wont reset until its cleared
  13. james.wilson
    if you have engineer access and its an old galaxy then remote comms is on by default. If newer one then it will be on manager auth iirc. You using a 232 module?
  14. james.wilson
    Also is a pir suitable for the room, Can you post a photo of the room from the pir position. What settings are the sesnsor set to and im assuming no pets?
  15. james.wilson
    but the ion has awful 1 way wireless?
  16. james.wilson
    depends on the age of them by the sounds they are knocking on.
  17. james.wilson
    its a good level of detection, I have all external windows and doors with shock sensors and all downstairs rooms have movement sensors. All on their own circuit. 2 external sounders but proper signalling
  18. james.wilson
    you should only have 1 detector per zone/circuit
  19. james.wilson
    too late ive got them and like the convenience but get your point
  20. james.wilson
    thats still an eternity electronics wise
  21. james.wilson
    if its important to you then as Mr H its long out of date, working for the minute you test it is one thing working to rely on is another. Id say the 46xx series went obsolete mid 90's? If its not important then turn it off. I doubt any of the pro members on here still have your system on any support contract. There is a reason for that. One thing is it was a very good system in its day
  22. james.wilson
    to be fair ive got a few of these around the house. Rather than split add them where you need them
  23. james.wilson
    ok then id next be metering the back of the board on each switch to see if the tamper switches themselves. If not it is totally knackered
  24. james.wilson
    im not sure i recall that panel due to age but is the zone light on as well or just the tamper light. Also when you close both tamper switches do you get the tx led to flash on the contact?
  25. james.wilson
    is there links in the connections on the one from the front door? iirc the external and reed are series connections so if there is no link the contact built in wont function either
