Gadtec Wireless Expanders

[Bazz1977]

Hi all i have a Gardtec 595 i am trying to add a 8 zone wireless expander but am have great trouble. I think i may be wiring the 485 bus connection wrongly but not sure

I have gone from panel to interface card on serial cable then from interface card with 4 core to zone expander but every time i try to install zones it says wireless reciever not active

please help

The 595 has a connection on the back of the circuit board(newer ones are 4 pin) This expander cable goes from board to expander.

Then its into programming and the instructions that come with the expander tell you how to do it.

Thanks for help

I have used plug on connector from rear of panel to interface module using the 04-070 serial cable then from interface module to expander connecting the Bus Connections but when i go to add wireless zones it says Receiver 1 not responding

Any ideas were i get a wiring diagram or full install manual

later versions of the G595 i believe, do not require the interface anymore they connect direct (as per the panlel drawing in the quick start guide).

Have you switched the Zex on in the programming???

i had this recently - the manual said the old connections but the pcb had the rs port

i wonder if he has checked the battery?

lol

(sorry Bazz it's an 'in' joke, Angus is our battery 'Mod' ).

i bet you (Angus) had a panel where they run out of the newer instructions so stuck in old stock, anyway the tech help number is on the back so give them a call be quickest as it also depends on the version number of the software.

you definately need to use the blue 4, maye 5 pin connector on the rear of the pcb. i know this as i cut it off and tried to wire it into the data line! i had to use a galaxy digi cable to make it work. the newer ones come with an expander already connected i think.
