Alarming Antiquity

[ABLE1 <somewhere@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Guys,

Just for a little extra humor, as if we haven't had any recently.

In the next few weeks I will be starting a project that
involves working on a Dictograph G-1800 security panel.
Don't know for sure but I believe it was installed in the
mid 1950's.  It has a Ademco 694EN for communication.

Is set up with Key Switches for arming and disarming and
has Ultrasonic Motion Detectors as well as Floor Mats under carpet.

Zone 1 has about 15 Windows and maybe 3 doors.
Zone 5 has 18 Smokes and 11 Heat Detectors.

New owners what to upgrade.

The amazing thing is the system is monitored and fully operational!!

Thought I would throw this to the "Old Pharts" here just to get
some memory juices flowing again.  LOL

This is going to keep me awake at night........................

So anyone here ever worked on a Dictograph G-1800 in the past??
Or maybe have a install manual laying around collecting dust.
I search Google & Ebay and nothing.

Thanks for holding back........  No, never mind....... Let'er rip!!
