    Hi to All! I am a CCTV installer, with our main focus of activities being Retail Outlets. The bulk of our installations are in the '32- to 96-cameras per outlet' spectrum; normally with an 80/20 split between fixed cameras and PTZ's. It will be very nice to exchange views and/or get advice when needed from people in the same industry. Dave

    Hello, I am new to the board. I stumbled upon it by googling in a vain attempt to find an installation manual for BT inspiration system. I am a telecoms engineer co-ordinator. I hope the moderators don't mind me posting a job advert. I promise I'm not a recruiter about to bombard the site. Just desperate to recruit 2-3 new Engineers to our team as currently my boys are over worked! Now I've found the forum am sure I will be doing alot of technical research on here and asking for alot of help/advice. Look forwarding to cyber talking to you all Jules

    Hi Y'all, My name is Dennis and I live in Texas, USA. I have three Sensormatic Speed Dome Ultras. I am running them with CamServer on RS-232 (RS-422 protocol). I am trying to figure out how to utilize the alarm feature of the domes. However I can't fine any info on hooking them up. I need to know if one dome can support multiple alarm zones. The domes re being used on my home. I would like to have each window and door be an alarm zone. Unless someone can give me better ideas. Any documentation or info on installation would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Dennis

    Hi everyone i accidentlly came across this website when looking for help. And im hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I recently moved into a house that has a intellisense alarm in it, the lady said to me that the alarm needs "reset" and i could simply call any alarm company in the yellow pages and get someone to come out and do it for a small fee. Needless to say its not so simple. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to who to contact to get it reset, and find out how it works. (no manuals left either and i have no idea what model it is, the house has been up for 3 years, so id say it was an alarm they had available in 2004. thanks
