    OmniTouch 7

    With the latest update, my Omni Touch 7 has been working great. I don’t have any issues with it. Anyone else?

    No entry chime or arming countdown beeps

    I occasionally have the same problem as you, and I don't know why the chimes work for a period of time and then stop.  The only solution I've found to bring them back is to reset the system RAM from the console pad.  Go to Setup>>Installer Setup>>Misc>>Reset Sytem RAM (not EEPRrom) - press 1...

    RS232 serial messages for LP tank levels displayed in Snaplink Mobile

    It's a non-commercial application, and I love the digital readout from those units and the form c relay that could trigger a zone on the omnipro II.  I just wish they didn't cost so much.  Thanks for your help!

    RS232 serial messages for LP tank levels displayed in Snaplink Mobile

    I have a remote ready gauge, and I was looking for a commercial unit to integrate with the omnipro ii - even if it's a simply relay that trips when 20% of the tank is left.  Your blog article on how to interpret the voltage from a hall effect sensor is awesome, but I think it is above my skill...

    RS232 serial messages for LP tank levels displayed in Snaplink Mobile

    Yeah, and it doesn't look like my original approach will work.  I spoke with the folks at Robertshaw and the RS232 connection on the receiver was installed as more of a troubleshooting method and not a good method to set and get info.  I think I'm changing gears and holding out for this product...

    RS232 serial messages for LP tank levels displayed in Snaplink Mobile

    I'm creating a RS232 serial connection (based on info I gathered from other users here) between a Centeron controller (datasheet here) and my Omnipro II.  The Centeron controller will send the omnipro a daily message of propane tank percentage and I'd like that information to be displayed on my...

    Security wire wall termination, junction box, or plug

    So you would mount the relay project box to the wall where security wire enters the garage? Then run the wall wart power to it from the cabinet? I think I could make that work.

    Security wire wall termination, junction box, or plug

    I like the RIB relays, but how would you run the n/c or n/o wires back through the garage wall to the panel? Something scares me about having high voltage and low voltage lines in a module like that.

    Security wire wall termination, junction box, or plug

    I'm using a elk-912 relay in a project box I built, powered by a wall wart. Wire terminates into screw terminals in relay through opening in project box. I guess I wouldn't have to make the security wire removable from the wall. I just figured a plug or connection of some kind would be good to...

    Security wire wall termination, junction box, or plug

    I like the gfi being there for safety cause it trips when lights and plugs get wet. I just want to know when it trips so I can find the water problem and resolve it. My main question/concern is "how do you think I should make the connection through the garage wall to the relay module in the...

    Security wire wall termination, junction box, or plug

    Good point. It's a GFI that trips when I have outdoor lights on (around now cause of the holidays). I want to know when it happens so I can dry things out as it may be awhile before I realize it's tripped.

    Security wire wall termination, junction box, or plug

    I'm creating a power sensing module using a relay to monitor a specific garage circuit that frequently trips the breaker during rainy weather. The security wire running from the relay will need to pass through my garage wall and into the basement. Is it better to simply pass the wire through the...

    Wireless receiver location outside of operating temperatures 45A00

    Installed the wireless receiver in the basement joists and the range is quite good.  Thanks to everyone for the help in determining a suitable location!

    Console Beeps Disabling on their own

    I came to this discussion as this recently happened to me after updating firmware to 3.14a.  None of the other suggestions seemed to fix it until I reset the system RAM from a keypad console.  This is under 9=SETUP > #=INST > 6=MISC > RESET SYSTEM RAM? 1=YES.  Entry chimes are back to working...

    Wireless receiver location outside of operating temperatures 45A00

        Wow, I guess the operating temps they list are pretty accurate then.  Thanks for the help.
