Enrolling Honeywell Wireless PA Fob (TCPA2B)

[Samuel P]

I am having difficulty registering a new wireless panic alarm fob (TCPA2B) to a Honeywell Galaxy G3 panel.

 

The steps I'm using are:

1. Enter manager code the go to 42 --> 1 (user codes) 

2. Find a user that does not show R[], pres Enter

3. Enter 12 (Radio Fob) --> 1 (Learn Fob) --> Enter * ->> 'Awaiting Fob' is displayed

4. On the keyfob, press both buttons until red light shows.

 

However, after about 20 seconds the screen is going back to 'learn fob' menu option as it is not picking up the fob.

 

Batteries are new and have tried a couple of new fobs. - None are being learned.

 

Any assistance would be grateful.

You do have a portal on it?

Would the "RF fob learn" menu still appear without one?

If your trying the new version pa button it won't work with old portal , you need version 3

 

Old square oblong will work 

 

But from what I know round new ones won't with can be worn on wrist or pendant , atleast it's how ingot it to work 

 

Oh and you need newest firmware on panel
