    Hi guys

    I looking at using the 'lights on' feature on the 10/70 panel to operate a gate

    Is it possible to turn this output from a latch into a momentary output

    If not what options do I have

    Thanks in advance

    The smart light output would not suit.
    If you had a GSM then this has an output for gates which would suit.
    Another option would be to install a standalone controller on the gate.

    Is it not possible to set a time for an output on the 10/70?:confused:

    Hi Altor

    thanks for the reply

    Theres already a controller on the gate, I just want to have one remote for all, otherwise im carrying a bunch of remotes with me

    I was going to use this output to signal a relay which would give a volt free signal to operate the gate, the only problem is that I would have to give the remote a second push in order to cancel the power to the relay

    Is there another output that I can use and maybe configure to another one of the buttons on the remote

    thanks

    The gate would only need a N O pair to close briefly.
    Will a timed output not not work this via a relay?

    A smart doors output would work. It can be set in seconds to the time you want the door open. It can be activated by a user code.

    I was looking at that, can this be set with the fob

    I am not sure to be honest waratahcam.
    I know each fob is set up for one user so it might if the smart door is set up for that user. I will find out for you though.

    It should be possible via outputs. Ill send you over the Installation Manual to look over.

    I think it may say in the manual that the smart door can only be set by a user code - i think this may be a fire saftey feature

    You cant have access control on a fire door so dont think this would relate to that.

    I will find out off HKC or if Steven is on he will let us know if it is possible.

    thanks Altor

    Your welcome, I let you know if it can or not be done tomorrow.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,719 ✭✭✭✭altor


    Hi waratahcam,

    I was on to HKC today and they said the 9 button on the keyfob will only control the light output. If you do set it up using this output then you will need to press the 9 to open the gate and press the 9 to close it too.

    Is there no option to get this to open a zone?


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,719 ✭✭✭✭altor


    Dont think so, think it works the other way around.


  • Moderators, Home & Garden Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 24,789 Mod ✭✭✭✭KoolKid


    I have a mad roundabout way that might work.
    Does the 10/70 have areas?


  • Registered Users Posts: 26 waratahcam


    Hi guys

    Thanks for your help

    Is there a way of configuring button 5/6 , - instead of it going into part arm, it would operate a mapped output which could time out after a predetermined period

    What do you mean?


  • Moderators, Home & Garden Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 24,789 Mod ✭✭✭✭KoolKid


    I was hoping for an answer from Altor. Does the panel have areas , this is where you could have 2 seperate areas that can be armed/disarmed seperatly.
    If this is possible I have an idea.

    No 5/6 are for part set only.

    Yes it does.
    It would work with a prox fob but that means swapping out the keypad.

    Can you programme the keyfob to arm area 2?
    Then have an arm/disarm out put for area 2?

    Yes.


  • Moderators, Home & Garden Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 24,789 Mod ✭✭✭✭KoolKid


    And can an arm/disarm output be timed?


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,719 ✭✭✭✭altor


    KoolKid wrote: »

    No, The arm/disarm output is on when the system is unset and off when the system is armed.

    It could be used with the fob set up as a different user for a different area.

    Quite a few limitations re outputs here.
    What outputs can be timed?
