Hi Gents
I have fitted a couple of these alarms and they have so far been very reliable.
I'm not sure how you are wiring this, as your post makes little technical sense. The instructions that come with these things are confusing and complicated to say the least!
Firstly, do you have broadband....? If so you will need an ADSL filter specifically designed for an alarm panel;
Secware ADSL Micro Filter [SW3011] - £4.19 : Security Warehouse. Security Supplies. Cheap Prices for Texecom, Pyronix, Visonic, Scantronic, Honeywell, Online Security Products, Trade Prices, Cheap Suppliers of Texecom, Honeywell, Pyronix, Visonic, Sc
1. white (5) and Blue (2) from your BT phone socket
2. Pass these through an alarm ADSL filter as above. Secure the filter inside the panel, there is plenty of room.
3. connect to the 'line in' input inside your panel
4. Dont worry about the other terminal (to telephone)
you will need to activate the PTSN module inside the alarm via the menu.
Beware that from memory, there is a possibility that the 'line in' 'line out' are around the wrong way, (factory error) so if it doesnt work first time, swap them around.
As I said, these are pretty good alarms, however they are generally a pro install, so you may find the menu complicated. Dont be scared to give their techies a call if you get stuck...
My only gripe with these systems is that they have no engineering mode, so when the batteries die (around 18mths), or if you have to do any repairs etc, the alarm will activate upon tamper and you have to be ready with the fob to turn it off. A silly gripe I know, however it's the first alarm I have come accross with no engineer mode and it annoys the neigbours when you have 6+ batteries to replace!!!
Good Luck
