Guardware CU 22 Home Alarm system

That things' probably 30 years old - 86 it. IIRC back then there wasn't interior zones, you'd use a manual shunt button or latching relay.

You might want to check the carpet mat loop to see if there is a mechanical shut installed. It could be a simple switch or a part of the (REMOTE) keypad (if it has one). As far as documentation goes, if Jim Rojas doesn't have it no one else here will either.

A 30 year old mat is probably permanently shorted by now.

Your don't think someone rolled a dolly loaded with a refrigerator or filing cabinet over it during the move do you?

nah...never happens.

I DID have a guy that tiled over his mat, and wondered why it was always shorted...I mean that takes somekinda dumb to tile over a mat, eh?!

I thought the tile would protect the mat. Now I finally know why mine never worked! I had always blamed it on that little open circuit to closed circuit adapter for the 1005 loop. I need to head down to the rental place right now to get a good jack hammer. They'll start working now by God. What about all that dust I wonder?

Contact me if you are in Boston area. I am familiar with Guardware produtcts and mats. I have manuals.
