    Dsc 1864 slow response to zone closing?

    No changes. It just started having a delayed (more than 30 seconds) response. I just replaced the contact end. The magnet still seems to work OK. Appears to be working as it should though.

    Dsc 1864 slow response to zone closing?

    I installed an 1864 and once it was up and running, everything worked great. Suddenly one zone is VERY slow to respond to the zone opening and closing. Its a door using a recessed remote. I can open the door and for the most part it responds instantly. But more often than not when I close...

    DSC 1864 - Wired glass break sensors always keep the zone open

    I will try that. The wiring is good, it has continuity and resistance. When I remove the power, it opens. I tried connecting the wires and it does react as it should. I have on e resistor on each glassbreak (there are 2 of them, and 2 wires)...each to their own zone, and both C contacts...

    DSC 1864 - Wired glass break sensors always keep the zone open

    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...

    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...

    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.
