    Hi guys,
    First of all sorry for my writing English is not my first language I hope you guys understand.
    It was building renovation job. We pull fresh cables for intruder alarm system. Old system was HKC SW812 panel we replaced in to HKC SW20140. On the old system was connected Radio communicator but electricians pulled it from the wall. I didn't take any pictures or notes what way radio was connected to expander.
    Now I need to reconnect Radio to new expander but I have no idea how.
    Radio model is ATE ARGO RADIO BIDI04R.
    If anyone have any ideas please share I'll appreciate.
    Thanks.

    I'm not familiar with the radio model. Can you post a pic of the connections?
    Does it use Outputs/Dial capture or serial connections?

    It's probably connected to a central station and you would need the original installer to program the new panel, provided it's still in use

    Is it even transmitting test calls?
    Has the radio unit been powered down?

    You are better off getting the original installer as you need to know what you are at with the Top radio units.

    It was transmitting on the old HKC system sparks powered down and ripped from the wall. They thought that unit not going to be using again. Also was never reconnected on new HKC system.
    Ok lads I'll try to contact TOP and see what they can advise. Thanks again.

    The radio is connected to outputs to be triggered in the event of an alarm.
    The newer HKC system only has two.
    If you have the newer system installed have a look at the IP polling.
