Brilliant! I'm having a new panel fitted tomorrow (self install). old one being removed by a company. I have 2 exterior sensors with 1 cable going to both in series. Think they used the atz function due to not having enough zones. Not 100% sure. I have more zones now. So this is how I would wire up 2 takex MS series in the same way? Where would I put the eol resistors here? Thank you
Great video. I would like to take a place where I previously had a window with a window contact and reuse the wire for a glass sensor. The problem is the glass sensor needs 4 wires and the window contact only had 2 wires. Can I jump the 2 to create 4?
That's right, it won't work. But check your alarm panel, it's got to be a 4 wire. I think you have this type of contact. m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51YAsF8vb4L._AC_SL1000_.jpg
Thanks for the video. Is it possible to program the pgm arm/disarm function to also have a panic if it is held. I.e. 3rd party remote button press arm/disarm and remote button hold to trigger panic
Hi Jason. I have 4 IR beams ( 2 receivers & 2 transmitters) that i need to connect on 1 zone. How do i do that, cause when i connect the 2 NC & 2 Common to the one fron the panel, it doesnt work.
You can't do that, you have to connect it in series. See this photo. cdn.getawaycouple.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/31093839/Series-VS-Parallel-1024x576.jpeg
Confused why he tied loop common to ground? Totally unnecessary. Just tie yellow from motion to common, otherwise this would cause a ground fault on a Bosch panel.

You can, use the tamper as the jumper. So you can put the com wire on one of the tampers and put the resistor on the com and the other tamper.

Your window contact wire doesn't have 4 wires? Because it should
@@JasonTech I double checked and it only has two. Based on that, I am guess I can't do it because I need power and ones to the zone (I assume).

@@JasonTech Thank you. There is only a black and a red. I truly appreciate all of your advice and your videos are really awesome.

You can but there's more to that. What system do you have?
@@JasonTech I've got a Paradox SP6000 alarm system with a Centurion Nova Multichannel receiver

Hi
Thanks for the video. In this case, I can’t use registor? My alarm panel still open because i think i didn’t use registor. Is it right?
Do you mean resistors? Most panel have the end of line resistors turned on by default. So yes, you need the resistor.
if I put yellow on the com panel, would the sensors work on 1 zone
No, you need the wire in zone 1. Com is just a ground.
Confused why he tied loop common to ground? Totally unnecessary. Just tie yellow from motion to common, otherwise this would cause a ground fault on a Bosch panel.
Common is ground on any panel.
