I installed a new DSC 1864 system in my house. Everything works great with a songle exemption.... the glass break detectors.
They constantly show an open zone.
I have a resistor at the detector and at the panel end, the 5.6ohm resistor shows.
Ive set the zone to a single EOL resistor.
But...
So as clearly indicated, I didnt know where the setting was if it existed so how can I post the settings.
I didnt ask anyone to post a detailed response, I simply asked if what I was looking for was possible. If soneone said yes and needed more information, I wold have done just that.
I have a new DSC 1864 and Im using both 5108 Zone expanders as well as 5204 power supplies.
My question is how would I wire a siren to use either the expander or power supply? I dont want to overdraw my main board....
Thanks.
Something Im trying to understand is if I even need a resistor for a wire Im using as a tamper line. Basically Im putting a wire down the pipe where the communication lines come into the house. I want to set it up so that if the wire is cut from outside, it triggers the alarm...
Hi... almost in the new house so I can get this programmed.
What do you think of this?
Im adding a tamper switch to my system so that if a wire is cut, the alarm instantly triggers.
Do I need to put a resistor on the 2 wires I will use or just tie them together?
(so if I am using the green...
I have one more camera to buy.... a doorbell cam.
Ideally it would be POE, I ran cat6 to the doorbell.... and also have the standard doorbell as well. I would like to be able to listen and talk as well.
Which doorbell camera has proven itself and be compatible with Blue Iris?
Unfortunately there isnt room to put them on the window contacts. My previous 1864 was wired by a company and the resisters are at the board..... so thats what I was going to do. My fault for not asking sooner.
Im assuming the resisters are for each zone..... but not for keypads and sirens...
I wired one continuous wire (well 4 in the wire anyway) from the panel to 8 smoke detector locations and the wire ends at the last smoke detector.
I'm looking for 2 wire smokies.....do they all need to be the same brand and model number?
I got it... and the notifications from the website work.
But Trying to get it working isnt going well.
Right now Im trying to get curl..... and I think I have the other info needed
I have been having trouble lately getting alerts on my phone using GMAIL by sending it to my [email protected].
I just got off the phone and Verizon disabled the ability for that to happen to fight spam.
Anyone have any other way to accomplish it?
No, it does not include them. If I need a third one of each I might have to work on a space for that battery.
I also am still looking for the 2 wire smoke detectors.
I changed the setup a bit, and am going to try to use a single cabinet. I got a 28inch long cabinet and I think it will work.
I changed some of the compponents.
1 Front door
2 East windows
3 Bedroom East Windows
4 Garage roll up doors
5 Garage Entry door
6 Garage Utility...
OK, I got a second 5204 on the way... guess I need a 3rd battery too.
If you dont mind helping me... I may have several questions.
Ive changed to a single cabinet,, and will definitely have resistor questions. Im going to use the DLS5 software to program the system.
Im just need your opinion...
Thanks for your input.
I guess I can add another PC5204 power supply module as well to supplement the available power.
But I did change one thing, instead of doing 2 boxes, Im going to use a 28 inch single cabinet and put everything in there. I have 2 batteries as well....
And I forgot to...
Im building a new home, and bought a new DSC 1864 system.
Im basically duplicating what I had in my previous house.
Im looking for help making sure I get the appropriate amount of items in the cabinet.
Can I get some opinions on which items to put in each cabinet? I need to try to get the...
I'm building a new house and pulled 7000 feet of cat 6.....2000 feet coax..,.1500 feet security wire...2000 feet speaker wire.
Not to mention tons of electrical outlets.
Or maybe this model due to the IR ?
