Gardtec 800 part set procedure

[Calibra]

Hello

i have the user and engineer manuals, but can’t seem to work out how to add a ne zone to my existing part set 1

 

i did this some time ago, but can’t remember how.. hopefully I do t need the engineer code, I forgot what I changed it to,...defaulted the system and the user code reset to default, but the engineer code doesn’t accept the default value...it’s not locked,as,I have changed it before and the installers confirmed it’s not,locked 

 

need sme help please

 

 

 

thanks

You will need the engineer code to do this. If you go into prog zones. attributes, Part 1 and enter zone no to be excluded.

If the panel is not locked then by defaulting it should return to factory settings.

[Calibra]

Yes I thought defaulting would work, oddly enough I remembered the engineer code just this morning....

 

so so hopefully I can add the faulty sensor to the part set till I fix it....thank you

 

Program zones yes types press no till attributes yes then “test none” displayed pressed yes and shows part set 1 zones...if I press no and enter zone it gets added to part set 1 but confusing but worked 

 

is it best to power down the system before changing a door reed contact ?

System will be fine powered up to change the contact.

Hello

 

thanks, was a bit worried, as a long time ago I changed a PIR and somehow managed to blow the PSU on the control panel, although I have since been told this shouldn’t have happened......

 

[sixwheeledbeast]

Contact is only a zone and tamper pair and has no device power.

I would have expected a blown fuse if you shorted wires replacing a PIR, my only thought would be the fuse was replace for an incorrect size.

[Calibra]

Yes that was what I was told, maybe the original installers omitted a fuse or put in the wrong size...

 

an alram installer used the psu from a dialler unit that is unused to,power the board, seems ok

 

one day has been suggested, hopefully can keep the original PIRs etc, will just need a new control panel and a front Bell sounder..

 

thanks for the help

[sixwheeledbeast]

Difficult to understand what you have been told and what has happened without been on site.

Sounds to me like an auxiliary voltage output has blown, not the "PSU", hopefully the alternative unused supply is rated for the same current and is fused.

Either way it sounds like a workaround the panel is damaged in this case, so replacement would be a good idea.

[Calibra]

Agreed thank you

Hello

is my best  panel replacement option still the gardtec 600 ? I wouldn’t do this myself, but would like to keep my existing word system, sensors etc ( don’t need a dialer....

 

also need to replace the front bell box, starting to disintegrate....what’s the easiest like for like replacement....

 

thanks again
