Hello, great video. In the video at 8:20, the entry for Phone Number 1 "Receiver number to the Central Station", is this the number the alarm panel calls when the a sensor is tripped? Assuming this is setup for landline. Thanks.
This is the kind of content I need before I purchase these. Just had a question regarding wireless things. Do we need the expansion board if we're just programming wireless zones?
First of all your videos are amazing, thanks, now I m using a USB / DB9 adapter to connect with the DLS 5 and the pannel of my DCS but when I've try to connect as you did in your video, after 30 seconds shows up a message "The panel can not be identified", any idea how to fix it? Thanks
Many thanks for your video, Im using the RF series of Key Pad, so please let me know if I use 8 zones as wired, do I need zone expander for adding 3 wireless windows sensors?
You are the man. Question... I have a slim contact that recently had its battery changed. Once I've enrolled it its showing a tamper that cant be cleared. I'm thinking it's a bad sensor. Your thoughts?
Hello and thanks. One thing. How do I find which user a proximity tag is assigned to? I have programmed tags but they have become mixed and I do not know which one is which.
We have a DSC Neo2064. We found that in our church if someone remains behind and is walking about we would have expected that the system would not let us arm the system but in fact the system arms and the person arming leaves. But the "forgotten" person still inside now sets off the alarm upon motion. What did we program wrong? Thanks!!
I'm trying to add a PG9303 to this keypad to replace a PG9975, but it says "Unknown Device". Do you know if the id needs to change or how to get it to work?
When programming labels I like to put before the name of zone the zone number ex Z1 FRONT DOOR or Z2 BACK DOOR for me makes it easier for service later on Thanks good video
In my previous house security person installed above garage entry, red LED light which help me to see that system is armed or disarmed when I am using remote. Useful. Where that light can I connect (on keypad) and, do I need special programming?
For that you will need to use PGM (programmable outputs), usually it's wired with (-) in aux and then PGM 1 (+) for example, then under PGM programming on page 11, put PGM 1 as 115 (I think), System Armed Status, that will put power (12V DC (+) from PGM and (-) from AUX) into LED light if system is armed. Hope it helps (a little late)
Inregards to the 'Event Reporting' Menu 308 if I need the Panel the send opening and closings to CMS do I need to turn off "Opening after alarm"? At this stage it will only send the openings and closings if the system goes into alarm while armed.
Hi, first your videos are great! Very clear info and easy to follow you. I have a neo hs2064 with a HS2LCDRF9 keypad (built in PowerG transceiver) and I am using the keypad zone to connect the front door. I can't find where or how to program the keypad zone. Can you help? Thanks.
I never worked on NEO rather the PC1616, 1832 series, I assume your tutorial applicable to the PC series as well, please advice. Thanks for the great tutorial
Would this be the same for a dsc 1832 v4.6 with a Tr5164 transceiver and ptk5507 with both wired zones and wireless zones. Right now i have wired zones and some areas i dont want to run the wire, so wanting to add wireless zones. Also can i add an additional wireless keypad that would work together with the wired devices and wireless, and communicate to the wired keypad.
Hi i do have a question I have installed 4 dsc neo panels my latest question is when i use a mag and a optex vx40 together and the battery runs low the optex unit the tamper siren goes off to tell me that the unit is low battery . It upset my client is there a way to turn off the beeping noise and just refers to the low battery on the lcd screen so he does not have to listern to the beeping till i repace the battery.
hello again, this programming only for ADT and/or Alarm.com? Can you use this programming for any monitoring company? how about a new take over? Can you explain this one please? do you have a basic cheap-sheet just for the everyday installations? Thank you
Whats "slot" needed for exactly ? I have wired and wireless devices, more than 20 zones, but when adding on z17 it writes me - slot error. What is that means? 3 modules on slot 1.
Can I install 2 motion detectors on a cable with 4 wires? For an example wire has Red(R), black(B), Yellow(Y), green(G). Use R&B to power both detectors. Use Y as nc contact and resistor for c contact and going to -. For second detector also R&B for the power and G as nc with resistor for c contact and going to - ? Will pannel Neo 2032 understand that?
+Eugen Corbu yes you can connect to motions on one cable. Parallel the power, and put the other wire in series. so for example bring the 4 wire cable to one motion and run a 4 wire jumper to the other motion use the same power for both. if you want both motion to be tripped before the zone go into alarm use a parallel hookup. if you want either one to trip use a series hookup. hope this help
+The Automation Guy Can I split them to 2 zones like at this screenshot? bevik.ru/info/img/podkljuchenie-po-trehprovodke-dvuh-datchikov.jpg Or it is better to run another 4wire cable?
+Eugen Corbu Sorry bout the late response I have never used this method. It looks like it would work they share the same common. However I would always recommend using separate wire. Its easier to trouble shoot in the future. How far will these motions be away from each other? Is it a must that you have 2 zones?
+The Automation Guy Yup, I want them separatly. 1 in master bedroom and 1 in kids room. They will be about 6-7ft away from each other and about 30ft from pannel.
Hi. I currently have the DSC PC1864. I heard about the DSC NEO. Is there great difference between the 2 systems? Also, If I were to replace a non-functioning keypad (I have 6 the PK5500) with a new DSC NEO keypad, -will the keypad work with the PC1864? Also, does the new DSC NEO keypad allow me to change to different chimes? Or does it still have the same ones?
Hey Automation guy! I have a question.. I'm starting in the Security field and our company uses so many systems, Ademco, Honewell, Simon XT, 2GIG, you name it. Will the codes you used on this DSC system pretty much work for most of DSC's systems?? (*2 and *8 etc) Aside from maybe the way the settings are laid out in the touchpad.
To answer your question: No. You can program the same installer code on all those panels you mentioned, but the programming is different depending on which panel you have in front of you. I noticed this comment you made is like 4 yrs ago. You probably don't need this information anymore. Have you have a great day.
I have the 1616 model same model as this but a little older my number 14 contact is no longer working I purchased a new contact online but I do not know how to add it can you please tell me how to add it onto my system thank you so much my unit looks just like yours but the LCD screen is green not blue all the same exact buttons
Yes, it's similar (professional alarm technician, we use PC1616 and NEO). Only BIG difference is manual entering of the wireless devices, no "auto learn". You can find it under *8 [installers code] > 804, then you enter the wireless code manually for each one, like zone 01 = 01 in the menu that appears, then put your Wireless code for example 32D423F it will tell you how to write it on the device, like "32*4*423*6*", do each one for each zone. Also changing codes is a little different, and no text, so need to go off manual if you don't know it by heart.
If you're trying to monitor a sprinkler, you could probably use a water-flow sensor hooked up as a hardwired zone programmed for either 24 hour fire (if you really want an alarm when your sprinklers activate) [zone type 007 for delayed, 008 for instant on the Neo] or 24 hour sprinkler if you're not worried about UL certification/insurance [zone type 048]
+Yamil Piedra just go on section 804 and scroll back and would see delete zone and replace zone and on delete zone and you selected the zone number u would like to delete and press * and you good to go
Also when you setup zone definitions the zones that you are not using or no longer wish to use set it's definition to '000'. The other commentary about section[804] is where add new, modify(replace) and delete devices (ESN) from the system.
Thank you for the great video. I am having a strange problem where after I "press any key to enroll keypad" my keypad says ready to arm, but all of the keys are unresponsive. None of the keys beep when I press them, and I am unable to enter any programming. I have switched out keypads, wires, power supplies, and main boards and continue to get the same result. Do you have any thoughts on what might be causing this or what I am doing wrong? Thank you in advance for your help.
+Adam Bierschenk Thanks Adam, Try removing all but one keypad power the panel back up and trying it again. Also try taking the keypad to the panel just in case you have a bad wire. be sure to remove any other device such as receiver, zone expansion etc... only one keypad on the data bus.
+The Automation Guy Thanks for the reply. I removed everything but one keypad and have it hooked to controller with a 3 foot wire, still getting the same result. I read somewhere that the voltage on the corbus should be 13.5 vdc between black-red, 6 to 8 vdc between black-yellow and 9-11 vdc between black green. I am getting 13.6 between black-red, but only 1.85vdc on the other two. I have tried two different main boards, transformers and keypads all with the same result, so I am not sure where I am going wrong.
+Adam Bierschenk I'm not sure whats going wrong. if you've tried replacing the panel and your still having he same issue then is is very interesting. so i put a volt meter on the panel here is the readings i have. Red & black =13.71, Red & yellow= 11.80, Red & green = 11.80, Black & yellow=1.85, Black and Green =1.85.
+The Automation Guy I finally got it to work. What I did was hook up two wired keypads at the same time. Then one of the keypads started working but the other one didn't. Then after I did some programming and restarted the system, both keypads started working. I also noticed that now the AC power indicator light is on, where as before it was not. I have no idea what the problem was before, but everything seems to be working now. I really appreciate your help, and I would be lost without your videos. I can't wait to check out some of your other ones!
Why this new unit has more programming issues. The DSC Impassa has less to program and easier as well. Also, I'm liking more and more the 2GIG panel... Its way easier than this system by far! These companies should focus on the tech's point of view. Remember the old saying. ( Work smarter NOT harder ).. MY 2 cents!
I totally agreeing with you. I have been installing dsc systems for year that most times I don't use a program manual. Now its as if I'm back in school. with this neo system. I'm way older now so patience is not my virtue.
I like the DSC Neo. The first panel I ever programmed. And, in 2nd place the PC Series! I don't have experience with panels earlier than PC16xx/PC18xx ones.
Good video in that it has good information.. However, you're not a good teacher. Half the time you're not explaining what you're doing. You're just under the assumption we know what you're doing. For example: you never explained what you were doing when labeling the zones. How do you go from capitalization to lower case letters ? How do you put a space between words ? And most important how do you save your work ? How do you keep from losing all your labels you just did ? Learning the sensors: Hold the tamper down for a few seconds, you never explained that either. A good teachers knows how to teach. Other than that, great video. You just have to work on your teaching skills.
Just was using the power series and had to go the neo dsc this video got me thru my installation very helpful thank you

Good video in that it has good information..
However, you're not a good teacher.
Half the time you're not explaining what you're doing. You're just under the assumption we know what you're doing.
For example: you never explained what you were doing when labeling the zones. How do you go from capitalization to lower case letters ? How do you put a space between words ?
And most important how do you save your work ?
How do you keep from losing all your labels you just did ?
Learning the sensors:
Hold the tamper down for a few seconds, you never explained that either.

Other than that, great video.
You just have to work on your teaching skills.
Why do you say "I turn this on" without telling us what it is!!!?
