Title: Powerflash module
Post by: iV on December 04, 2006, 08:44:38 PM

I need some clarification for the powerflash module.

Can it trigger a DS7000 system ?

Can we set it so it would be only trigger only on "away"

Thanks a lot !!!

The Powerflash module only sends signals over the power line, no RF.  As far as I know the DS7000 only receives RF.

If you want contact closure to trigger the security console, you can pick up a DS10A.

This will however trigger both in both arm mode.


I suppose you can have the Powerflash trigger a module to turn on a "warm" lamp in front of a MS10A.
Then you can set the contact closure for away.
