Guest matt332 Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 When wiring up a Texacom Veritas R8 can I wire a PIR and a door contact from the same room into the same zone? Does this have to be wired in paralell?
breff Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 1.yes, but not advisable and not allowed by regulations for us pros. 2. no,series. The opinions I express are mine and are usually correct! (Except when I'm wrong)(which I'm not)
Guest Matthew Shaw Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 . I have 3 pir's and 3 magnetic detectors, and 8 zones! Would it be simpler to connect 1 detector per zone, - is this advisable. I am also unsure of which zone to programme the area near the keypad. The keypad is in the hallway with one PIR covering the area. All other doors/zones will be closed upon setting the alarm. The front door is a couple of metres from the keypad and has a magnetic contact fitted. After reading the instructions I am unsure of wether to program this zone to be entry/exit or inhibited entry. Thank you.
Nova-Security Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 . I have 3 pir's and 3 magnetic detectors, and 8 zones! Would it be simpler to connect 1 detector per zone, - is this advisable. 3 pirs + 3 magnetic contacts = 6 Zones leaving you two spare. Thats the proper way. www.nova-security.co.uk www.nsiapproved.co.uk No PMs please unless i know you or you are using this board with your proper name.

Adi Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 Inhibited (walk through) I really can't be ar**** with it anymore.
Guest Matthew Shaw Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 Thanks. Could you explain why so that I know!! There is a PIR in the hall and a magnetic contact on the front door (entrance from exterior to hall). What is the difference between inhibited and entry/exit program mode?

There is a PIR in the hall and a magnetic contact on the front door (entrance from exterior to hall). What is the difference between inhibited and entry/exit program mode? Entry will start the entry delay when the detector is triggered. Inhibited entry will allow you to violate the zone ONLY if the Entry delay has already started. So if someone comes in through the window (and does not start the entry delay by opening the front door), the inhibited entry zone becomes instant.
dpaengineer Posted October 25, 2005 Posted October 25, 2005 Just to add... You will also need to set the PIR in the hall to entry/exit on a night (part set). This will start the entry delay when you come down stairs instead of triggering instantly. Trade Member
