gixerlad Posted January 6, 2014 Author Posted January 6, 2014 Matthew, I had a look on the secuirtywarehouse site but cannot see any resistors, am I being stupid(probably) Can I ask, do any smoke detectors that are connected need a resistor also? Thanks. Ben.
matthew.brough Posted January 6, 2014 Posted January 6, 2014 Security warehouse won't sell them. This is what you want http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1K-TO-10K-CARBON-FILM-RESISTOR-1-4-W-1-2-W-E12-RANGE-FREE-POST-OVER-5-/320874387076?pt=UK_BOI_Electrical_Components_Supplies_ET&var=&hash=item4ab59a9684 Select value 1k and power 1/4w Any detector connected will need resistors including smoke detectors, yes. www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/
gixerlad Posted January 6, 2014 Author Posted January 6, 2014 thank you again! have managed to power it up and all seems good so far. will just wait for the various sensors to arrive.
matthew.brough Posted January 6, 2014 Posted January 6, 2014 No problem and if you need further help just come back and we can assist you further www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/
gixerlad Posted January 12, 2014 Author Posted January 12, 2014 Hi, hopefully last ' ish question. Having cheated and bought door contacts with the resistors built in, I know need to fit the speech dialer, one shock sensor and one smoke alarm to complete the setup. I have the resistors, thanks Matthew, but stoopid question, how are they wired in, in between the wire and the contact of the item/sensor? I cannot find a definitive answer with the search function but may not be using the correct terminology of course. Thanks, Ben.
matthew.brough Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Easiest thing is to post a picture of the detector connections and I'll draw it on www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/
james.wilson Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Plus its detailed in the manual securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
matthew.brough Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 16+ manual can't be more than 4 pages ?! www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/
gixerlad Posted January 13, 2014 Author Posted January 13, 2014 That is very kind Matthew thanks, I did not find the pics in the manual THAT easy to follow. 4 pages for the manual, thats alarm world humour right? 113 pages including all appendix. I'll have another read and if I really cant make sense of it I will post a picture.
matthew.brough Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 113, wow. The 16+/8+ was a very simple panel compared to it's bigger brothers so I assume it is written in 40pt font. I couldn't think of what you could write so much about the baby panel. I was quite a fan of them in their time for small systems. www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/
