C4DB Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Which One will give you most "Feedback" to Touch screens. I'm run into one deal breaker Cuz of lack of alarm security feedback. Customer want to see open zones, able to bypass zones, and have chime at selected zones ( With Zone Description). We Have GE NX-8E Installed in, and composer give us only 6 options to choose.1-Armed at Home2-Armed Away3-Disarmed4-Alarm State5-Trouble Condition6-Clear ConditionIs it way or write some more options, as open zone ( With Description Will Be Nice ), Selective Bypass ( With Zone Description )Or is it any other Alarm Panel to do more than GE NX 8EThanks.DB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil12011 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I think the GE concord4 is probably the easiest. It's what most folks go with. Option wise, I'm not sure if it has what you need though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capww8 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 You can control all the functions of any alarm panel using the same keystrokes on the GUI as you would on a hardwired keypad (alarm keypad), the customer just needs to understand the procedures.If you select "toggle view" from your GUI under the security heading, it should display open zones and trouble conditions, so you already have those covered.The bypass function is probably the biggest pain in the butt, and if the security panel is programmed and installed properly, they really shouldn't ever need to use it... however, like I said above, they still can if they understand the keystrokes.

capww8 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 btw - the chime issues again go back to proper programming. You need to ID properly, and make sure the customer understands how to enable the different chime modes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C4DB Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 Thanks capww8 for imput. That's very logical. GE Networx 8E has 5 side keys ( Stay, Away, Chime Bypass and Cancel ) As well 3 emergency activation Key's ( Panic, Fire and Medical) It's almost identical to DSC Alarm keypads. Concord Alarm panel has only 3 side emergency keys. in other word C4 touch pads can't replace security Keypad in full. So be aware of that, and don't promise to much to coustomers. Hope to see that feature in Future software update.

RyanE Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 The BP is not really recommended at this point, as the Vista ICM, which was the best way to integrated with the Vista panels, has been discontinued by Ademco.RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
