Im going to run out of PIR zones as there are only 12 on the board.  'Garage' for example I am happy to have both PIR on 1 zone.  Thought that was OK, but please advise if Im being dumb!

So you need to buy a Rio to expand the wired zones 

 

Galaxyguy if your reading? 

 

Is flex20 same as g series you can use any zone as wired and wireless

 

If that's correct buy a Rio , expand fully and then do what you have to do

Right, after 3 weeks of Xmas madness I got back onto this today. 

 

Fired the alarm up and I have one fault which is 'Tamper O/C' on zone 12 (1018 from memory), which is the door contact for the back door.  The issue I have is that the door contacts only have 2 wires (Black/Red) so they don't seem to have a tamper circuit or anywhere to fit a resistor?

 

I presume this is done at the board, but should the resistor just be inline on the '12' terminal?

I'd assume your mickey mouse contacts could be made usable with a jb or soldiering iron ?

Yep, maybe I just bought the wrong ones!

 

Ive just checked and here:

It seems to imply they do have resistors? Am I just being thick?

Looking at this page:

Looks like I've ordered the wrong one! They are pre-wired but Ive got type B:
Type B Resistor (For Scantronic, Cooper, Pyronix PCX, Texecom, Castle-Care Tec G3+) [SC513/WH/G3/B] - 4k7 Ohm Switch, 2k2 Ohm Tamper

 

I need Type A:
Type A Resistor (For Honeywell, Microtech (Galaxy) - 1k Ohm Switch, 1k Ohm Tamper

 

Rookie error I think!

Your panel came with resistors somuse them dude if that makes sense

 

Someone's already done a drawing somewhere here

program the values to suit the contact ?

 

If that's possible? I'll have to consult the manual....

The drawing is mine, but that's fine for the PIR's, this is for door contacts with resistors moulded into the unit so I cant get to them.
