al-yeti Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Metal as more room , plastic is easy enough if you follow the instructions and use it's cable management , you can get it all neatly behind the pcb Both work if it save a few quid and gets you a dialler , better than bells only Quote
datadiffusion Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 I'd buy it from Security Warehouse, but TLC are OK. Quote So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands
Percha Posted January 17, 2015 Author Posted January 17, 2015 As I currently have metal I will get this again as I am using wiring from original install. I am hoping for a straight transfer from old panel to new. Any tips on what I should look out for? Quote
al-yeti Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 yes don't forget your bell box will be going nuts outside when you disconnect the panel , providing its working well or it will flop due to no servicing perhaps so won't matter..... Watch out for mains electricity Dc can be lethal for burns Not trying to scare you but all things to keep an eye out for If tlc has courier then they few quid more expensive I think Oh and stretch the spring in the keypad a little , otherwise nearly always tamper when you pull flap down Quote
Percha Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 Thanks so the old bell box went off when I tried sorting current system out (thought I knew code and cannot get engineers manual for it to reset codes). Reading various forums most people state just get a new panel and keypad that is serviceable. What I currently have is 17yrs old but was working OK up until 5yrs ago. I will get a new battery at least for bell box as that died when I set it off. New panel will also have new battery. Mains yes good call, I have been bitten before by my father in laws hedge trimmer that had two prong connection with mains wired on the male side of it not the female! Quote
