    Hi All

    I have got great alarm advice on here before, thank you. This time it's my GSM dialler I think you call it, it does not send text msgs anymore, or when I text it it does not reply, and I have checked its in credit as its pay as you go and is active, when I try and send texts from the keypad it says 'line busy, try again later' .

    Any ideas?

    I would try power down the panel totally and power up again. Leave it powered down for at least a minute.
    Allow a few minutes after you power back up for the sim to initialize.

    I will try that, thanks, just find the trip switch and turn it off? Or have I to open the panel to stop the battery cutting in?

    You need to disconnect the battery also.
    If it is an issue with the SIM it needs a fresh power up to initialize .

    Hi kool kid. I have a hkc securewatch at home and I need to get a voice dialler I think? (Want alarm to ring my mobile phone when it activates.) Are these user friendly, could this be done by myself? I'm very handy with telephone cable cat5 etc . having a electrical background.

    Easy enough once you can follow the programming.

    Hi koolkid

    I am only getting around to doing this today!!! I turned off the trip switch for the alarm opened the panel and disconnected the battery, the alarm sounded so I reconnected the battery. How to i power down the alarm, I think I have the correct engineers code, but could not find an option to turn it off totally !!

    Thank you.

    When you disconnect the mains power & the battery the outside siren will ring. Once the keypad is blank that is the system powered down. Wait a minute and power up again.

    The test service is being removed from Eircom landlines.
    See thread here

    This will not affect any GSM diallers.
