hi all
ive been asked to fit a couple of extra smokes a break glass and sounder to a premier sx 4 zone pannel.
one zone was spare so wired the smokes ect fitted end of line all good.
on checking the pannel i found only 2 sounder circuits both in use...end of both ciruits miles away!
so i thought id use the fire relay to fire the extra sounder powering via the batterys.
the manual says 1 amp max for this relay so no probs.
connected up....earth fault led lights general fault led lights alrm sounds ect.
remove the extra sounder wiring and try again...same thing..
then i thought....* i havent fitted 10k end of circuit resistor.....**.
no i can,t think why this is now giving me an earth fault led....(all 4 zone leds also lit) i can reset but the fault returns in around 3-4 seconds.
have i just lunched the pannel.......not the end of the world it part of a few grand job and a new one is cheap enough...or is there more to it.
any help gratefully recived
cheers
