    Trying to replace sensors damaged after having new windows installed. I haven't been able to get the same sensors to replace like for like. Can anyone tell me which way to wire the new one (skinny version). The original had blue, red and black wires in that order from the top down. Trying to post a pic.

    You would have a few choices.
    Replace with I'd sensors.
    Please note that doing this you need engineer access as these sensors need to be ided onto the system.
    You will also need engineer access to remove the old devices that you are removing.
    Configure the zone for non end of line or if using resistors. Then just use the wire available to wire in the sensors on an available zone.
    Alternatively you could just use one I'd sensor and wire the sensors out of the I'd sensor using alarm and tamper terminals.
