Hello yes was fiddly, but works perfectly now it’s tidied up, another skill learnt LOL

Works perfectly now......hopefully it will,last another 25 -30 years...LOL

Thanks, at least I know, alls well that ends well.... thanks for your help

Thankyou the picture here is the way I wire it up first but had a continuous tamper .... then swopped the yellow and black, as per a DIY site...and it worked !!!

Hello i had the black and yellow wire swopped..... now tamper has cleaed and all,ok... would still like to know about the selectable resistor contacts ? thanks for all the help

Hi when i said worked, that was a little premature......the tamper goes off checked wiring can’t see anything wrong help please

Hello thank you so the two wires not connected are not needed and can be left as such as now.? so do modern alarm systems not have resistors ? Or are they built in now ? was rather fiddly getting the resistors onto the contacts, but worked ok.. thank ps the only built in resistor contacts I can find are selectable....is this easy to select ?

Sorry, back to my original post, changing a door contact....from what I have read, it’s a simple matter of the switch wire being connected to the two silver screws.....and the tamper wire joined together and secured up in one of the brass screws.. i was k with that.. however, I have resistors in mine, one between one wire ( connected to a brass screw )and the silver screw....plus another resistor linking the two silver screws.....there are two,other wires, I assume the tamper wires, but these are not joined, they were just tucked away in the back of the switch.... i believe I can replace the switch, using the existing resistors , not sure if the tamper wires should be twisted together and secured in a spare brass screw.. many thanks red is One switch wire the 2nd switch wire; green, connected with a resistor to the blue terminal. Yellow the resistor between the two switch wires.

Thank you

Thanks want to do the bellbox myself as can’t affod new panel yet... so is the pyronix a good option as. A good bellbox or because it’s ewsier swooped ? thanks i believe there is a chart somewhere of the wiring for various bellboxes ?

Hello is my best panel replacement option still the gardtec 600 ? I wouldn’t do this myself, but would like to keep my existing word system, sensors etc ( don’t need a dialer.... also need to replace the front bell box, starting to disintegrate....what’s the easiest like for like replacement.... thanks again

Agreed thank you

Yes that was what I was told, maybe the original installers omitted a fuse or put in the wrong size... an alram installer used the psu from a dialler unit that is unused to,power the board, seems ok one day has been suggested, hopefully can keep the original PIRs etc, will just need a new control panel and a front Bell sounder.. thanks for the help

Hello thanks, was a bit worried, as a long time ago I changed a PIR and somehow managed to blow the PSU on the control panel, although I have since been told this shouldn’t have happened......
