Scotty2 Posted October 18, 2010 Posted October 18, 2010 Does anyone know can an autodialer be fitted to the veritas R8 system. i think the switched negative for the bell box can be used.
Guest Oxo Posted October 18, 2010 Posted October 18, 2010 Take your pick really. Most work the same way. Some allow the polarity to be +ve or -ve. Cooper do a decent one. As do Risco.
Scotty2 Posted October 18, 2010 Author Posted October 18, 2010 Is this the norm for adding an autodialer to this type of system?
Guest Oxo Posted October 18, 2010 Posted October 18, 2010 Low end panel ( to pros) so yes a lot use a dialler. Better than a SMS text service and cheaper than a standard central station connection(ARC). There must be thousands of panels with diallers attached. Note it is illegal to have a dialler call 999/911.
Scotty2 Posted October 18, 2010 Author Posted October 18, 2010 sorry i may posted that question slighty wrong. What i meant was is the autodialer normally connected to the switched negative for the bell box or is there another way of doing it. I am going for the Veritas R8 as i have fitted them before and have had no problems but never realised that an autodialler could be fitted to this system. I know some systems come with a connnection output for such an item
Guest Oxo Posted October 18, 2010 Posted October 18, 2010 Ahh right, You can use the bell output yes. Cannot remember if there is a programmable output on a R8, not fitted one for over 10 years! The R8+ and Excell do have outputs. If it is a R8 and you use the bell switched neg remember a bell test will trip the dialler as well as any user errors that let the bells ring. Whereas an intruder output would only trip if a zone was tripped when set.
AdrianMealing Posted October 18, 2010 Posted October 18, 2010 What Oxo said, and as i am completely biased, a Texecom dialler will suit you fine. amealing@texe.com Head of Industry Affairs Visit Our Website Texecom
Guest Oxo Posted October 18, 2010 Posted October 18, 2010 Soz Adrian, if I had started mentioning every dialler would have been typing all night lol. OP, using a Texecom one would be easier as all wiring would match up.
hpotter Posted October 18, 2010 Posted October 18, 2010 some bellboxes dont like you messing with trig output from panel, gives them a tingling feeling. i assume all ok if tex panel/dialler & bellbox though?
james.wilson Posted October 18, 2010 Posted October 18, 2010 See id go for a honeywell or menvier unit myself Soz adrian never used a tex dialler. Just dont rely on anything sms based.
