texecom keypad zone help

[kamchow]

i have a texecom 48 panel and a texecom lcd keypad.

i've connected the network connections on the keypad to network connections in the control panel.

so far, so good.

do i have to connect the zone in the keypad (labelled "A" [alarm] and "T" [tamper]) to a zone in the control panel?

so anyone here familiar with texecom keypads and know about the zone connections in it?

thanks.

No, that is just an extra zone. It is there for the connection of a door contact, or PIR detector etc, if you so wish.

If not just leave the terminals empty. It is not programmed as an active zone as standard, so don't worry about it unless you actually want to use it.

good, you confirmed my suspicions. thank you.

i did an internet search for my Q, and there was only a little bit of information here and there. hence, why i raised the Q here.

the strange thing is, i'm getting keypad tamper faults and cannot see the reason for it.

ah well, back to the drawing board.
