ADT Galaxy keypad

If it is like the USA versions, you must program the corresponding zones. Zone 95, 96 and 99.

I assume you may mean the outputs belonging to the individual keypad.... mmmm, makes sense, think I'll dig into the manual on that one.

You didn't bother digging into the manual the first time?

Hehehe, no its not that. I think that the ADT panel has special software to enable this function, and I don't have an ADT version of the manual, only the original manufacturer version. Unfortunately the keypad only has output number *99 - so no joy on that score. And I can't seem to see anything where you can press * and a number, either together or separately, in the manual.

It sounds like its similar to Ademco (at least the zone numbers line up).

The 95, 96 and 99 aren't programmed at the keypad, they are turned on in zone programming. Once they are on the panel should recognize the commands input at the keypad.

Do you have it on PDF format? If you could email me it I would really appreciate it. I have a 504 ADT board, and would be installing this for my friend.

huh? if you can get into programming how do you mean it's restricted? you need a special keypad to program the zones...that's about it i believe.

Guys, just because it says ADT doesn't mean it's made by Honeywell, or that it programs like a Vista panel. Galaxy is a UK product that is completely different. For example, 504 zones, 32 areas, and 256 outputs.

His best bet is to try the UK newsgroup.

ah otay thanks for that

If you have a 504 it won't work. It was only ever intended to work on the ADT software for the Galaxy 8+ & 16+ in the UK. In all honesty the 8+ was just a 16+ board with the ability to add a rio removed especially for ADTs smaller installs. They keypads with the coloured buttons had a separate part number to the normal MK7 keypad, but the only difference is the colouring of the buttons. The PCB is exactly the same so if you had a normal MK7 keypad on a 16+ with ADT software, if you pressed *2,5 or 8 it would have the desired effect.

Ah, makes sense - more based towards the residential side of things. Cheers for that.
