Hi All, I'm having a bit of difficulty trying to work out what electrical work I am permitted to do myself in my Scottish flat as most information I can find online relates to England or regular houses. I keep coming across this PDF online which seems to state that I can do very little outside...

So I am at my grandparents in Maidstone installing a Wireless Pyronix alarm in their bungalow. To run power to the panel, I take a 1mm² T&E from a junction box in the loft (what is on one of the lighting circuits) to the FCU and then to the Pyronix panel. First check for power at the panel and...

Just a few questions about the Pyronix Wireless Enforcer system, as I am installing one tomorrow at my grandparents. 1) What is it about a 4 digit code not being compliant with BS8243 for unsetting the system as stated on the panels flip down guide? I take it it has nothing to do with the...

My house has a Gardtec alarm system - installed about 10 years ago now. Over Christmas (I was away), neighbours told me that the external sounder went off on two occasions. On returning, the LCD on the keypad appeared to be completely dead. I assumed some sort of power failure at this stage...

Can anyone supply me with instructions on how to lower the entry/exit volume that comes out of the main panel when entering/exiting? It's currently deafening levels, and there's no way you could come back late at night without waking up the already sleeping household. I've got the engineers...

Hi, Over the weekend we noticed the alarm didn't seem to be working. Turned out its working fine, but the internal sounder, (a Elmdene INT500) is not working.. If we arm the system it used to emit a squark, same on disarming.. Not it just emits a very small clicking noise.. I removed the...

Hi there. I rent a property and it has a C&K 700l fitted and the keypad panel has died. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to just straight swap for another identical panel. I have sourced one I just want to know if I'm wasting my time. Thanks in advance.

My power went off and we had electricians, britishgas and western power to try and fix the issue. It took 6 hours. As soon as the power came back on the alarm started to go off but the screen for the keypad wasn’t on so we can’t shut off thhe alarm. How do we go about turning off the alarm...

Hi all, just wondered if anyone had come across this. We have inherited an alarm system in our new house and are pretty close to having it programmed the way we want it. The alarm is an Accord XPC for which I have the manual. What I can’t find info on is the attached prox reader (used with key...

Please please please for the love of god can someone tell me how to disable the insanely annoying beeping I'm getting every 10 mins so that I can get a decent nights sleep. We inherited this alarm system with the house and its seemed to work ok until now. I don't care about replacing the...

Hi, I am installing a DSC PowerSeries PC1832 panel and having trouble disarming. With the alarm set, when I enter via a delay zone I am unable to disarm the system with the user code. After the delay the alarm enters the alarm state, at which point I am able to stop the alarm with the user...

Ive had an Yale ENA "Smarthome" alarm for a while, but today i made the dreaded mistake of entering an incorrect code 5 times to access it. Now the system just beeps at me furiously no matter what key i press and nothing else works. I cant login. Tapping the Engineer button to try and log in as...
