Spreadnet

Hi guys anyone got the software to programme the Spreadnet receiver. Asked at Honeywell sorry have not supplied that equipment in 7-8 years.
If I cant get it here I guess we will have to pull it out, which would be a shame because there is nothing wrong other than some of the zones need reprogramming. The receiver is connected to a Concept 3000 via a comms task which makes it easy when interfacing to the panel as all comms between the devices is done over the serial connection. If I pull it out it is going to take a while to hardwire a new receiver to the panel. Please someone help me make my job a little easier.

I would try in the usa. Jim had a lot of spreadnet gear for sale including programmers not so long ago.

Thanks fordtech. Its cool I will just pull it out and put in something else. I though maybe I could get software to programme the receiver which would be easier as there is a few devices hanging of it.

As you know you'll require the 900-Prog, without this you cannot program any new devices or change the current device program (settings)

I have multiple programmers and new pirs, smokes, heats, reeds, panic buttons, almost all of the wireless devices in the range in stock.
I contract to a company who has a national client with LOADS of Spreadnet still installed..

I cannot lend my equipment to anyone I don't know without some form of "security" of getting it back. Goodluck

Thanks AusSecTec....I does not really matter as you are probably aware it is 900mhz, if the ACA cops wind of it I will be forced to remove it anyway.

Anytime Kiwitech, no problem, don't mind helping a fellow Kiwi.

I think you will find that existing installations are not prohibited, but new ones are.

I know they are 900mhz spread spectrum, I have used it since 1998. I also have the old sales video to still.

Upgrading or replacing parts wouldn't be an issue. Installing new systems in buildings might be for the ACMA. Please do let us know how you get on with it either way.
