I still have a Comfort 1 (yes, I know, time to change!).
All of a sudden I have heard the keypad announcing "Communication Failure 81". I can't find any reference to "81" in the various documents which talk about SEM, LEM etc - so I am hoping someone can shed some light on where I need to look.
It may be related, or maybe not, but I have always had zones 1 and 5 configured to announce when they are activated. They are both zones on the main board, of course. At the moment, I hear the announcement for zone 5, but not for zone 1.
Any thoughts would be very welcome.
Thanks,
Nick

But you are right. It is time to upgrade after 20 years

Hi Chiu,
Thanks for the prompt and helpful response. I do indeed have an old RIO, so that makes sense. I have just had a poke around with my meter and I can see 12V on JP12 which is the power coming in. But on the connector blocks, I am only seeing 0.39V between the 12V and 0V connections - so something is pulling that voltage down.
So, tomorrow (when I am properly awake) I will have a look to see whether something is shorting the RIO output. If not, then maybe what looks like it's a small voltage regulator on the RIO board may have died.
On your point about upgrading, do you have a recommended UK installer?
Thanks,
Nick
