Funny service call today - remember the mini howler from Ademco

did a bunch of 342R's back in the day, even some 1004 before that.. with 612 dialers. (auh the days of 6 volt systems..)

ome 1004 =EF=BF=BDbefore that..

I've got a 221 panel down in my basement somewhere along with a couple of100 panels and a 1200 photo beam.

But before they came out we were using the old Ademco, stone over the cave opening.

Maybe someday I'll open a museum. I've got a whole bunch of old stuff I've been collecting through the years.

Anyone know what a Constant ringing drop was?

Rotary phone was dialed and pencil held last number to dial in place on phone string was rigged to door and when door moved pencil was pulled out allowing phone to dial number it was calling and would ring till owner picked up and could here what was going on in his store.

Thats OK I saw open circuit window foil which worked too

what about a 36" dowel rod balanced on a cherry switch used as window protection... (knock off the rod, closes the switch, starts the bell...)

Ademco 1005 with a bell ringing recharge-a- pack to really advance from the old dry cell batteries. Day, Circuit Test, Bell Test, Night. The good old days?

The 1002 was the first zoned commercial panel and then the 1004. Then the 1005 with the main feature of the 1005 being it's internal reversing relay for use with the Modularm followed by the Mini Modularm. What a frikin monster that was. It's a good thing the digital dialer and receiver was invented. Other wise it would have taken a whole warehouse to hold all the equipment necessary for a central station.

It did. Do you remember these?
