Texecom OLD Premier/Veritas

Update: I have added the jumper/dupont in zone 4 between Com and Z4. Zone 4 is still active. (PS, there is another reply just before this I made on page 2, this overflows from that) I also then changed the dupont for a resistor to emulate EOL resistor

Zone Type = Instant Zone Wiring = NO Partition = 1

Program your zones as above

 

Remove ALL wiring from controls apart from Mains. Check they are all Secure.

 

Use wire links between your Z and Zcom to check the zones go active when linked.

Hi SWB, I removed all wiring per your instruction, set zone 1 to instant, wiring NO, partition one. here are the pics.

So does Zone 1 change state when you open and close the circuit?

[Shadrack]

Nope, no change with or without the jumper cable

[sixwheeledbeast]

Try and set the alarm with the circuit open then close the circuit to set the alarm off?

Maybe try the 3 other zones too, you will have to program them in like zone 1.

If nothing is changing state then it maybe knackered, I can't think of any other reason.

Something seems broken if the panel is showing Ready but the NO circuit is closed.

I've armed the armed partition 1 just fine. I then closed zone 1 through 4, one at a time, then all together, no changing of states at all.

yes without actually seeing it etc to confirm it sounds goosed

Well thank you guys very very much. I really appreciate the help I got! Much more than I expected. I'll see if I can save up for a new panel. There's a supplier with the Premier 412 8 zone for R1,027.41 so I'll see if I can get that next month or the month after. or would you guys recommend a different one? the others are pricier so may take longer to save for them.
