Vista 20P will work fine for several weeks and then suddenly go into alarm without a fault in any zone. No log of fault. Changing main board did not fix.

    if there is no indication on your system of an alarm activation eg siren/sounders alarm memory on keypad then talk to your monitoring service there could be a mix up with your system reporting number

Sounds like there might be a short in the wiring or a faulty keypad. What model keypad are you using for programming?

SOURCE: LinkedIn tanks at log in w/ Windows Vista, fine with prior operating systems

I found a solution for *my* problem, by shrinking the MTU in my router.

I have two Vista PCs at home that can't access LinkedIn's sign-in page.

I was suspicious that several browsers seemed to be having a problem, which made me think it was either a virus middleman in the network code, or a router problem. I eliminated the virus possibility by replicating the problem on another PC.

By changing the MTU on my home router from Auto to 1452, I got the signup page to appear.

It appears that Windows Vista's new TCP stack does some advanced segment and window sizing and that didn't work with my Linksys RV042 router's Auto MTU setting. I'm not 100% sure what it is about LinkedIn that caused a packet of just the wrong size, but this is the second time I had to tweak this router to work with Vista. First I needed a firmware upgrade to get some traffic flows to work at all, and now this MTU change.

I do know I've had to change MTU settings in the past to work with encapsulation protocols like PPPoE, but I haven't had to change the MTU setting for quite some time...

Maybe this clue will help someone else...

SOURCE: Denon AVR-2309C1 will not play sound through

Turn off zone 2 then turn your receiver on the main zone on Radio, tune in a station and check for audio. Post a comment and let me know if audio works that way. If you don't have any audio, list your other equipment makes and models as well as how they are interconnected to your receiver (cable type) and I will help you troubleshoot

Check the keypad wiring. it sounds like you have wires crossed, a bad keypad, or possibly a keypad address issue.

SOURCE: i am currently repairing an onn lcd 32 angel-a

Check for buldging caps. Burn marks and discolorations around the components. I have found newer caps are failing around the bottom instead of bursting the tops. Check the voltages out to the mainboard to make sure they are where they should be. Another thing to do is reflow the solder on fets, transformers anything that looks broken, you can use a jewlers glass to check for these cracks.

SOURCE: main circuit board faulty

SE is 'sensor error' This could be anything from a loose wire to a faulty Hall sensor or even a main board failure......You probably need an LG technician. Your machine sounds like it's worth repairing.. Get quotes.........Good luck...Nomess

Honeywell how to

You don't say what kind of control panel you're trying to add this to, but I would guess a Vista 20 based on the symptoms. You cannot use a 4208U for this panel...what you need is a 4219, but even that may not work because Honeywell has changed the components without changing the part numbers, making the new expanders incompatible with older controls. You may need to upgrade to a Vista 20P.

Programming vista 20p for 5882 receiver

Is this the only wireless zone you are adding to the system? Is the Vista20P programmed for other hard wired zones?

My key pad is displaying not ready chime only

Not Ready means one or more of your zones is faulted. Pressing the * key on the keypad will display the zone or zones that are faulted. A faulted zone can be a door or window open, a motion detector "seeing" movement, and so on. It will also display a description of the zone. Chime means the chime feature on the keypad has been enabled. Any perimeter or entry/exit zone that faults will cause the keypad to ding three times. This can be turned off by entering your 4 digit code and pressing the 9 key. Doing so again will turn it back on. The link below is for the user manual for an Ademco Vista 20P panel.

Hope this helps.

I just plugged in my vista 20p for the first time and the ademco 6160 keypad I am using to program says open ckt. I have several wireless modules throught the house and have checked each one and still open...

This could be caused by a mis-wired zone on the control panel. If there are any unused hardwire zones on the panel, and/or if the bell circuit is unused, a resistor ( info in installation guide ) must be used across the terminals or you will get an open circuit message. If you can't see it straight away, have your local alarm company check your system and they can find this fault for you quite easily.
