These impaq-w door contacts are fun fitting on upvc doors with curved edges... The lip on the magnet is ever so slightly out to fit under the rubber

I always bin the magnet they come with, fit a proper one from a surface door contact. Looks neater too imho

Nice one ... I have a couple of those in the tool box... 

 

The first one wasn't too bad as I fitted it pretty flush to an internal wooden porch door (so the missus has to shut it in future!)  

 

One after this is a metal  patio door...

Okay sometimes the metal doors will screw with the magnetic fields of the magnet. If you get issues cut a bit of plastic or rubber to sit between the magnet and the door. If you cut it to the same shape as the magnet you should hardly see it, esp if it's white.

But can you omit two zones from both part sets? And if so, where would you do this? 

 

Each zone, under attributes "omit part 1 and omit part 2" will only then be active on full set.

[1animal1]

Thanks Lyme, I'll give that a go if i get interference. 

 

Regards the part sets... In attributes you can only assign one attribute 1, so you either omit 1,2 or 3. After swb messaged, I noticed right at the back of the installation book, there's an option in the zone menu to tidy the part sets up...

I am not sure why you can't do that.

You can assign as many attribute 1's as you need.

It would be useless if you couldn't use Omittable/Part 1,2,3/Access/EE2 or Part Guard simultaneously

Agreed, although I normally program via wintex so it's a tick box option

[1animal1]

That may be the differentiator, Wintex... I certainly cannot see a way of selecting more than one attribute through the panel - I have been wrong before several times on this thread  

 

I'll hopefully have my lead any day to review what I've done.

 

I'll tell you what i haven't managed yet - adjusting the key volume down.
