Westec 760/Keypad problem?

An Antique store perhaps?

Try these guys, if they're still around

OFA

Just left a message for "Roy". Thx. Any other suggestions welcome.

I would say its time to get a new system, that one is very, very old and a new system should be much more secure, and have more features.

Plus, its probably going to have more faults in time, as the electronics in it are getting very old now....

Thanks for the tip. I'm sure you're right. Just trying to delay the inevitable as long as I can.

You already have :-)

I don't see how an "old system" would be any "more secure" than a new one given components of equal type and quality. There are still plenty of panels out there that are still goin' strong. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. This guy needs a new keypad. If he can source one without having to replace the entire system, then good on him.

tions welcome.

Down time is less secure. More frequent failures is less secure. The fact that you know it's demise is close and inevitable is not achieving the peace of mind one would have with a newer system.

I think that... all sumed up .... equals .......... less secure.

Hmmm... can't argue with you on any of these points when you sum the all up like that, however, you have to keep in mind that keypads are one of the "weak links" in any system (considering some of the abuse they take). Replacing a whole system because a keypad is on the fritz isn't the criteria I would normally use to justify upgrading a customer to a "newer system". We usually try to source a replacement (at a reasonable price) and only when that's not possible is it time to change the control.
