soulstyle Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Peeps, I have a problem i cant seem to fix. My G2 is all working fine. However, i want to add an additional PIR i have wired. Problem is, everytime i try and connect the 12volts that feeds the PIR, the bellbox starts ringing and the keypad goes blank. Disconnect the neg and the bellbox stop ringing and the keypad returns to normal with an alert message. No fuses blown etc. I a little lost??? Can anyone give me some advice so i can add this additional PIR

Someone told me I was ignorant and apathetic, I don't know what that means, nor do I care.
soulstyle Posted July 24, 2011 Author Posted July 24, 2011 1st thing, what terminals are you getting the 12v supply for the PIR from ( Where on the PCB )? Let me take a look tomorrow. Cant remember off the top of my head. But the other 4 our powered from the same terminal.
soulstyle Posted July 25, 2011 Author Posted July 25, 2011 Ok. Update, I have a blown battery fuse. Fuse replaced. I have 4 PIRs powered off one set of aux contacts I also have a dialler and the keypad powered off the second set of aux contacts So i just tried taking the (pos)+ out of the feed to the PIRs and the bellbox outside started ringing. The keypad was ok this time. However the bellbox rings until i reconnect the (pos)+ feed to the PIRs??? Panel in Engineering mode Can anyone help???

Panel in Engineering mode If that is were the bell is powered from, it will ring if there is no power to it (engineering mode or not). The bell has a battery that takes over if it loses power. That said the bell power should be taken from it's own terminals not the AUX.
soulstyle Posted July 26, 2011 Author Posted July 26, 2011 Bell is powered from its own 12v supply at the bottom of the circuit board. Its got me stumped??? If that is were the bell is powered from, it will ring if there is no power to it (engineering mode or not). The bell has a battery that takes over if it loses power. That said the bell power should be taken from it's own terminals not the AUX.
9651 Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 Dead short on the cable....? All load, bell and aux is fed from the same fuse.
