GC3 SP1 Secondary Touchpanel Power Input

Hi,

The specs don’t make it clear how the SP1 receives power. Is it like the GC3 itself via low voltage wires, or is it via a barrel connector. If the latter, is anyone aware of an easy way to cut the included adapter to extend? I’ve done it before, but I’ve found that those little wires in the power adapter cable are very thin and hard to work with.

Thanks!

The SP1 comes with the same style 14VDC transformer as the GC3 panel. It has both a terminal block and a barrel connector inside.

Any news of when the SP1 will be available for purchase?

We do not have an ETA at this time, unfortunately.

Just got one October 11th.

BTW, thanks for the news about the adapter it uses!

Certainly. Note we do not have an ETA when the SP1 will be available through the suretyDIY store. It will likely be soon after release.

Can I wire the SP1 to the same adapter as the GC3 panel?

The SP1 uses the same voltage transformer, but no, you should never connect a single transformer to both the GC3 and SP1. They each come with their own transformer.
