nickp8 Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 I have a Eurosec alarm with a Gardtec speech dialler unit, which has gone faulty. I want to replace The Gardtec speech dialler with one that also has text message capability. Would the Texecom speech and text dialler work with the Eurosec alarm? Would the wiring be the same as the Gardtec? If not can anyone recommend a unit that will work and the best place to purchase it. Thanks.

Thanks. you could replace you panel with the CPX version, which will be a direct replacement and has VoCom speech dialer built in, and i think it will also text to. whats wrong with you original dialer? or do you just want the text facility?. be a bit wary, as for some reason 'dialer's' and Orange text do not get on all that well, i don't know why but it has been flagged in here. regs alan If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!
nickp8 Posted July 3, 2007 Author Posted July 3, 2007 The original dialler does not call out when an alarm is triggered. The installer has checked it and it is faulty so he is going to come round and replace it. I would like one with text messaging, so I was going to buy one and ask him to fit that instead and sell on the new replacement Gardtec, or i will swap them over myself if it is easy enough. Nickp.

Unless you have " fallen out " with the original installer you really should let him get on with his own job ( you`ve already paid for it once even if indirectly ) whats the difference between a text and a missed call ? both let you know the cats escaped lol angus
