pcanimal Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 Hi, I had this alarm fitted and now need to go wireless. The c079 module states it needs a new firmware update. My panel says v1.0. Would be expensive to update it? Many thanks.
Lwillis Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 The update has to be done with a dongle and a laptop. When was the system installed? Is it under a maintence contract? Should just be a cost of a call out to update the firmware. (Price Will depend on area and company)
pcanimal Posted November 4, 2014 Author Posted November 4, 2014 It was 2 years ago. It's not under any contract. Fitted by a guy who did alarms. Sounds simple just need to find someone. I need to move the cable for the keypad. I'm in engineer mode is it OK to just unplug cable? Many thanks
Lwillis Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 If it was fitted 2 years ago I'd be suprised if it needs a firmware upgrade to take the RF Portal.
pcanimal Posted November 5, 2014 Author Posted November 5, 2014 Oh right! How do you check I could have sworn when I checked through the menu it said v1.0.
norman Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 It'll be printed on the chip inside. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.
GalaxyGuy Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 If menu option 23 is saying V1.0X, then it's a V1.0 and needs updating. All G2 PCB's can be brought up to the latest version.
pcanimal Posted November 5, 2014 Author Posted November 5, 2014 Yes it's version 1.0 but it's also a g2-20!
9651 Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 1.0, two years old? That's been in someone's shed for a good while? Yeah we'd do it for the price of call out
