Greetings-

I've successfully programmed the subject unit to handle 13 wireless window
contacts and 3 wireless keys. I enrolled a zone for each of the contacts on
my Power 832. Is there a way to enroll multiple contacts to a single
physical zone? As you know, I'm limited to 32 on the Power 832 and I'd like
to install 3 more contacts. The manual is not clear on "sharing" zones. In
my case I have several banks of three windows, which could easily share a
single zone each.

TIA,
Claude

No there is no way for many transmitter to use the same zone...

BUT you can use a single transmitter with many wired contact,just wire from
the transmitter to the 3 windows normal contact and your done...
P.S. don't use at the same time the magnetic switch enclosed in the
transmitter its wired in parallel of the input for the wired contact and
would bypass the wired contact..

Petem...question. Have you had good luck doing this. I have been told that
doing this creates an antenna that can pick up disturbance. Supposedly, the
length of wire from the transmitter to the contact(s), has to be quite
short....10 inches comes to mind if my memory serves me right

What is your experience with making the wire lengths longer than recommended
?

That was the original wireless sensors, later WLS925's can go quite a bit
farther in distance

i believe the instructions say 18 inches... and both the wireless
transmitter and the external contact/motion/whatever must be in the same
room (i have no idea why though)

either way... i've run many wireless transmitters to other devices with
about a 5 to 10 foot distance between them without problems... usually to
have the wireless transmitters in a higher place if they're placed fairly
far away from the keypad (shops, garages, etc.), or to keep them out of
harms way from careless people (warehouses mostly)

and to claude... would it be easier to replace some of the window contacts
with a wireless motion instead? you may be able to take 13 contacts and
take it down to just a few motions and a few contacts
