Yup that's right, I think they marketed a wireless only, Bosch originated system for a very short while but now, nothing...

So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands

IIRC Bosch took over about the same time as DD243 came about 2010 ish. Bosch could have done so much more with DA I was surprised when they took the route of Castle, it must have hit their profit margin, not only paying Castle for a rebadged product but developing their own keypad to work with it 

 

 Think DS went to bosch 2004 /05 ?

 

The hybrid 6/14 R was a stable bit of kit, I have some old kit on the shelf but don't think we have any maintained any more

 

The Euro thing was briefly sold as ADE, Bosch, Castle & Pyronix I'd guess cheaper than developing your own kit

I junked my last 2 DA systems last year, both old Abacus 8 types, although felt ahead of their time with the full LCD display etc... on a small no. of zones panel I suppose, given their age.

 

It was a slightly odd feeling that despite the 20+ year old boxes having been changed for 9651PDs (current model Eaton) the customer hadn't really gained anything other than fobs and possibly less power consumption!

I had a brand new 6/14 on the shelf until we move September when I threw it in the scrap. Along with a brand new Bosh/Euro panel a prosys, and loads of other stuff, I had to be ruthless. Shame really there was some nice gear but I couldnt warranty it and it would be more trouble than its worth selling it cheap. Ebay is just a ball ache, so scrap man it was

Hi again

Could anyone walk me through checking if I can remove the fob. I tried using the engineers menus but got a message saying trouble remote (note sure if that relates) with the local siren going off. Could only press no to stop it then could not get back to day mode so had to reset the system again. Please help!

you have a ksw input on a panel that is a bit past it. I doubt anyone could keep it going

 

I don't think it is going by the rest of the conversation, it's all native gear from what I understand above, including the remote?

In theory a fresh set of batteries in all and could be OK, seems to be quite good kit from the sound of it, for it's age.

So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands
