    Magnetic lock timer not working.

    Hi, I have come across one of those power supplies in the past, it has a built in timer to release the lock. The lock is wired into terminal 1 +ve and Terminal 2 -ve The release buttons are normally open so you use the green pair on each one, wired in parallel. These are wired into terminals...

    Magnetic lock timer not working.

    Looking at the drawing, the wiring is wrong if this is a maglock that you have installed, the release buttons need to be in series in order to drop the power to the lock in order to release it. The drawing shows the buttons in Parallel so this will cause a short circuit on the lock supply, so I...

    Accenta alarms (explain keyswitch and set to an idiot)...

    On the Accenta six, you could wire your relay coil between the set output (+ve) and the bell B terminal (-ve), then the relay would only trip if the system is set and the bell rings

    Accenta alarms (explain keyswitch and set to an idiot)...

    On the G3 panel wire your relay off the INT communicator terminal, that will prevent sending a signal if the strobe is tested. The keyswitch input would work with a relay output triggered by the app.

    Accenta alarms (explain keyswitch and set to an idiot)...

    The keyswitch zone will set and unset programme one without using a code, you would need a boxed keyswitch with a tamper switch in order for it to work securely, or a shunt lock (normally a Chubb lock fitted with an internal microswitch) The push to set is used to terminate the exit time once...

    Aritech CS350 Open Zone

    The resistors are in the right terminals, it looks like in the first picture the blue/white wire to the second detector is not connected to anything, try connecting it to the white wire that it is twisted to. Can you post a better picture of the first images terminals, I am finding it hard to...

    Aritech CS350 Open Zone

    The Aritech CS350 works with end of line resistors, if you connect a 4K7 resistor across the zone in the control panel it should show closed, if that works then you have either a cable fault or the detector wiring is wrong.

    Galaxy Alarm Tamper Keypad

    The keypad tampers can be troublesome, especially on an uneven wall. Make sure the keypad is correctly clipped on to the wall mounting plate, and sometimes a few layers of insulating tape on the tamper peg helps.

    9.5Kw Shower Installation

    My money is on the switch being incorrectly wired, as the neon only illuminates under load. As stated previously check the switch wiring and in case of any doubt isolate the circuit at the CU and await the arrival of your qualified electrician.

    scantronic 9800

    Hi, the bF fault code is only for the internal control panel battery, have you disconnected the mains and checked the battery voltage on load ?? The external sounder battery will not be monitored by the control panel. If the circuit board is not charging the battery, the circuit boards often...

    Alarm door contacts Help!!!!

    One important factor in this thread is in my mind, the fact that a tamper loop on the door contact provides double pole protection to the device, if an attempt is made to short out the wiring to prevent the contact from working, a fault condition will be generated. A single pole pair to the...

    Bt headscratcher

    Hi, each incoming BT line is only a pair so it is common for a property with more than one line to share a cable, pair one being blues, pair two oranges, pair three greens and pair four browns. In properties fed by overhead drop wire, the practice is also common, orange and white being the...
