Texecom alarm

hi im new on here, will be installing an alarm soon and texacom seems to be the favorite. Do you need a laptop to program these or is it all through the Key pad?

If you are just fitting your own as a one off, and it is a fairly straight forward system then you can program it through the keypad.

It will take a bit of doing, and might make your finger a bit tired, but is perfectly do-able


If you have a few to fit, or the system is a bit more involving, then laptop, software and connector doofer is the way to go.

It makes programming simpler, but the best think is the time it saves if you are installing the systems for profit. (It also means you have a backup of the clients settings should the panel ever crash or need the PCB swapping out etc)

cheers for the quick reply. I do alot of programing of FA panels at work being an electrician so certainly used to sore fingers at the end of a day
