@@FireTech7 do you think you eventually could? i plan on having a setup similar to this and a video like that would be beneficial

[@frankyshepard4203]

You should get the 6160 VP keypad it has voice it will talk

[@FireTech7]

Ehh I might get a 6160RF since I recently bought a wireless receiver you'll see it in a later video when it comes

[@Roxxofoxxo]

Thanks for making the video

[@frankyshepard4203]

That’s what I have

[@calebmorand4604]

Can other zones besides Zone 1 be used for 2 wire smoke detectors? Thanks

[@Thunderbolt1003]

You can only use zone one, the other zones don’t output 12 volts

[@FireTech7]

My detector is on zone 2 It's working fine

[@calebmorand4604]

@@FireTech7 ok thanks! Since you're detector is working on Zone 2, does the panel provide reset for it?

[@Roxxofoxxo]

@@FireTech7 if you put a 2 wire detector on zone 1 it will reset it without you having to remove it from the base you can put a 4 wire smoke detector on any zone but you will need a Honeywell 4120TR TRIGGER CABLE and connect the negative of the detector to it so it can reset the detector www.alarmsystemstore.com/products/honeywell-4120tr-trigger-cable

[@Roxxofoxxo]

​@@calebmorand4604 no it does not it only does that for zone one if you have 4 wire smoke detectors you can put them on any zone but they need a Honeywell 4120tr wire harness and you connect your negative of the detector to it so you can get it to reset www.alarmsystemstore.com/products/honeywell-4120tr-trigger-cable

Is there a way for my smoke detector with an eol not to go into alarm when taken of the base? I have it programmed as 24 audible

[@Roxxofoxxo]

I know I said this already but thank you sooo much for making this video my panel just came in today and I was soo happy to set it up and program it and you video was so helpful! Here’s a video of my panel of you want to see it kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpLKeKeJmZV2Z5Y

Cool!

L- SeriesFA thanks

[@FireAlarm33]

What if you do this without a Honeywell Keypad. Could it blow the panels up? Nice video!

[@FireTech7]

You just can't do anything without a keypad, doesn't nope anything up

[@theofficial3train]

How do you make them wireless?

[@FireTech7]

You need either a Honeywell 6160RF keypad or the Honeywell 5881EN-(M or H) and you'll need the normal Honeywell 6160 for programming

[@brendanFerral2718]

is there a way to make a smoke detector like a system sensor i3 reset when the passcode is entered, I have to take it off the base every time which is annoying

[@FireTech7]

It should be resetting as long as it's on zone 1 or 2
