This is awesome! I love the electronic voice. I love old electronic. I'm surprised it is still working. That's great, its probably better than the systems we have today. Quality not plastic throw away in year materials.
The Z1100 was the first residential alarm panel that used EE memory that could be reprogrammed over and over. Before it you had to burn EPROMs to program alarm panels.
It is in the main control panel. Likely in a bedroom closet or basement. It takes a key to open, if yours is gone you can acquire one fairly cheap on eBay, these are all keyed alike by brand.
@@USA__2023 that’s awesome. That first reply I made was not meant for this thread, not sure how it got posted here. Are you familiar at all with the Ademco Vector/4152 at all? That’s the system I’m currently running, very interesting system and seems like it was the precursor/start of how the Vista series behaves.
@@80sappliances Yes, I worked on a few of the old vector systems, and the 4140xmpt2. Later I became a Beta test site for Ademco on their high end systems from the Vista-50 to the Vista-128bp. I also did Beta testing for the pinpoint devices and the 5800 wireless devices. A lot of the older vector pinpoint stuff was compatible vith the Vista series. I have a Vista-50P in my house that was part of the Beta testing I did.
We have a bunch of z1100 and z1100e systems still working out there. I just pulled one out for an upgrade. They keep on working but the keypad buttons wear out. I got to meet Wade Moose a few years ago and shake his hand. He’s still around. The system does not include any internal siren driver. Most people just installed the MPI-11 driver but any driver, like this, could be used.
Sorry for the late reply, I swapped this system out a while back for an Ademco Vector 2000 (1986), which is a precursor to the Vista series. 29 addressable points, definitely a trailblazer. I’ll show all the sensors, all the same as I had on the Z1100 system, (mostly) all period correct. Someday I’ll have to pull out the Z1100 and set up a little demonstration, along with a few other vintage security systems and an addressable Nutone intercom system I have.
One system I wish people would do videos of is the Silent Knight Regency system - kinda nostalgic about that one since my 'rents had a 4720 system - using the SK Regency 2615 keypad. The sound of the siren that system has could, probably, still make me jump in my sleep. Hehe. (Not to mention how, for some reason, the siren in that particular system was hard on animals' ears. I remember my dog howling like crazy whenever the siren sounded, something that never happened when my parents switched to an Ademco system, and changed the siren to one that utilized the Napco MVA-1000 voice siren drivers.)
I have a moose security system in my home, when I bought the house I found out the elderly lady that lived there before me came home and there was a intruder/robber & she didn't feel safe so she had this system put in with all the bells and whistles, literally lol. There are sensors on all the windows, doors, smoke detectors, heat detectors, 7 motion detectors, the siren in the house saying exactly what yours said about the intruder to leave, the police has been called. You can turn off the motion detectors while your in the house or just turn off the ones you want off untill you go to bed. I think it's a great system and there are three control panels in the desired places but there is a small box about the size of a cigarette pack on the ceiling in most of the rooms but I don't have any idea what it is or does? The one in my bedroom is above me but over a couple feet but the little led light was bright so I put a piece of black electrical tape over it! I sleep fine and have not had any intruder thanks to God, but my house is protected mainly by my second amendment with a Glock 9mm and my 45 lol If you come in my home unwelcomed then you will definitely leave with a limp and chest pains and probably might as well bring a body bag if you break into my home. I would never shoot a person outside my home and I wouldn't shoot a man in the back!!! If you mean my family or me harm, then and only then I would shoot to kill!
The battery is located in the main panel which would likely be in a bedroom closet/basement. If you don’t have the key it can be purchased online fairly cheap along with a new battery.
I installed this system in my Fathers home over 20 years ago. He passed and I have no idea what the password is. Any suggestions on how to change/reset the password ?
I found this programming manual: www.thealarmstore.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Z1100-System-1-Program.pdf On page 5 it states that there is a default installer code that you can enter and change the user codes. If you changed that installer code when you installed it though I am not sure. I think there is a way to completely reset it to factory settings and go from there.
@@Fuji086 Have you even put the TV on in the past few years? Today is like a nuclear bomb went of in the worlds biggest shit pile and covered the earth in crap. The 80's were perfect compared to today. Today sucks ass!
That is described in the back section of the installation guide, where it covers the 'communicator'. You will also need to know what data transmission format the alarm company is expecting so you can configure it as well.

@@80sappliancesI do, what do you wish to know? Are you trying to convert such system to a newer Vista panel?
My grandma still has a thing and I still use it when I visit
The end of that announcement sounded like you won the lottery

I love the fire tone it does

Ours still works after some 40-50 years!
Voice is much more effective than a siren because it tells them that the police were called.
A mix of both is.
We have a old moose alarm and it goes crazy
talking security system?? thats so cool!!
snow rider: bugatti Ikr
All modern systems talk
@@Gamer_Tanks Not all.
2 things i love security systems and the 1980’s cool vid
1:20 that dog be like oh no da security system is going off!
Is it possible to set only 1 tone for the FBII VS279? I have seen different videos, some cycling through tones. I myself like the Hi Lo tone.
Yes, I believe the installation manual is available online but the sounds can be changed by setting the dip switches.
Epic, thanks @@80sappliances .
You the alarm sytme has violated the poor person 🚫🔥
Is it possible you could make another video on this system?? I'd like to see the panel and the sensors. Great vid by the way
Alarm Collector 330 If I get a keypad for my Moose Z1100 I can make a system similar to this because I have the same siren driver.

Hi! I have a similar system, do you know what I need to do to get my tone driver to have the voice come out of my siren speakers.
How do you stop it from blinking? Or reset it?
So I have that exact system, and we can hear the beeps when doors open etc, but cant find any speakers in the house?
Your chime function is on, to turn it off, press 6 and enter your alarm code. Should disable it.
Some alarm companies put the alarm speakers in the AC air return back then.

This is really old but I was going to say Alarm Collector 330 has a regency system and has demonstrated it.

The small box on the ceiling of some rooms sound like acoustic glass break detectors.
My z1100 keeps flashing which means the backup battery is not charging but where is the backup battery located?

Ive always wanted to here one of these thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!
+BayStateElevators Thanks for watching! The actual siren is actually driven by an FBII VS279 siren driver, not the actual panel.
+80's Appliances do u use it at night and when u leave?
BayStateElevators Yes, it is used normally.
+80's Appliances most people who have moose and older systems like that usually disabled them but I like that you still have yours enabled
Same keypad my grandma has then she also has that with a screen on it. And a moose mpI 11 siren
This is the creepiest system I've ever seen.

I get a beeping everyday at 9:11 will not stop till I go and press star
Sounds like it could be a warning for a low battery inside the panel.
@@80sappliances I took the battery out and it still starts beeping at eleven minutes after nine every day
@@waynecasper5346 Needs a new batery. Will beep it's ass off without a battery.
Too bad the key to the panel is lost 😅
Tbh I'd rather have that than a siren.
I guess wants you select your arm choices you have 1 minute to exit or stay
THEY POLICE WERE CALLED.
Your siren has bad grammar
Release the hound's!!!
Got me squinting for days -_-
