    Smart doors output can be timed but you can not use this with the fob. When activated by a code or zone it will remain energized for the time set in seconds.

    It looks like my idea eon't work with 10/70 so. A pity.


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


    Only 2 options seem to be smart doors - use the keypad. Smart light use the keyfob to toggle the output open and close.
    Smart light might be the better of the 2 as when your in your car you can use the fob to open and close the gate after you.
    Another option is to get a gate controller with a fob.

    Can smart lights not be timed?? I can set it so when the kitchen beam is tripped a relay is turned on switching on the kitchen lights . They then go off if no movement is detected.... May try with the fob and see what happens. Would be handy if it worked:D

    That is because you are using a zone to activate it.

    Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh i see :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,250 ✭✭✭Thunderbird2


    Maybe if he were to connect the smart lights with a relay into a zone???? :confused:

    How would he activate the zone?

    I have to say , I'm really surprised that outputs can't be changed from continious to pulse or timed.

    By using the relay on the zone. Pressing 9 switches the relay opening the zone.
    I wouldnt say it would work depending on how far the gate is from the panel.

    He could get one of those flash to open controllers... When you flash the car lights it activates ab RF remote www.gatesauto.ie

    Theres always a way. Just wish they didn't make it so difficult.
    Here , does the 10/70 have the option to switch the strobe briefly on set.?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,250 ✭✭✭Thunderbird2


    The internal bell can be set to arm squak. When armed with the keyfob the internal bell will sound briefly at the end of the exit time ....if you connect the strobe into the internal bell outputs then yup it would i think it works with the strobe out puts aswell :D


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


    Could you then set up a second area with no active zones, set up a keyfob to arm/disarm this area, use the squalk or strobe output to start the gate?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,250 ✭✭✭Thunderbird2


    Altor.... Feel free to help me!!! :p i have no clue about areas!:confused: So i couldnt say . Sorry :pac:

    But then wouldnt the keyfob be assigned to that area? So then the keyfob wouldnt be able to disarm the main area????? It would only work for the gates?


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


    Could the same keyfob not have permissions for both areas.?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,250 ✭✭✭Thunderbird2


    Let me get my manual!! ;)

    Well im open to free donations ;) send as many as you like :p
    I accept all GE(simon xt , cough cough) HKC, ARITECH, SIGNET and SIEMENS panels
    It says
    There are 8 timers
    The lights can be triggered by a zone activating ,by user code or both.
    The interval in minutes indicates the amount of time the light (relay ) will remain illuminated


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


    Its a lack of some basic options thats making this so arkward.
    Can the remote not even be set to open a zone?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,250 ✭✭✭Thunderbird2


    Honestly i dont know.;) i may have a look tomorow :D Worse il have to buy a new panel to do my "Tests" on when i connect to monitoring! Its a drastic change i dont like . Dont know how il survive! But at least il still know the engineer code ! Hahahahaha

    It is set up in the RF options, keyfob options. This will not be any good as it just activates a sounder for a second as an indication of the system setting.

    The lights output will work but you just need to press the 9 on the keyfob to close the gate after you.
