Great thread and impressive pics of install. It has convinced me which system to install in our house. There was a veritas8 in before but cable has all been removed so need a replacement.
I have seen a basic texecom24 kit for about £240 which should give us all we really need to start. My wife would like a wireless key fob. (we had one on our old house). I have seen the fobs on the texecom web site, am I right in thinking I would just need one of these and a IXP-w wireless extender, which may also allow a wireless sensor in the remote garage or it it more complex than that?

Hi virgilns, I'd pass those beers onto pcaouolte...massive help to me.
Can I just jump on your thread and confirm your Pryonix sounder wiring (specifically the tamper connections)?
Mine turned up yesterday, but I haven't had chance to look at it yet. I assume you connect wires to the same contacts as the exterior bellbox
12v+ to Texecom A
12v- to Texecom D
BA to Texecom B
SPK to L/S - (aside from the L/S, which as pcaouolte has pointed out, enters the -Spk contact next to the Aux contacts) - internal sounder I presume?
I'm a little unsure over the tamper connections here though?? Perhaps I can't see the wood for the trees, but I'm stuck as to how I utilise the tampers and/or where they connect to in the panel?
Many thanks.

Yes, you connect the wires the the same contacts as the exterior bell box and also the L/S connection which, as you say, is for the internal sounder.
Tamper connections from the Pyronix go to the Aux/Fault connections on the panel, take out the loop of wire that you currently have in these connections.
Make mine a Cider.

Cider it is!
Many thanks - makes complete sense that - I'll fit it up in the week.
Cheers.
No need. I've enjoyed trying to help. I've been helped by people on various forums in the past its nice to be able to give something back.
