  1. You may be able to change the setting on the alarm by pressing buttons, Which button you press depend on which alarm it is....
  2. appears to be the sorta door you'd see on porta unit ?
  3. don't use it.... is the serial number for a visonic or an adt app ?
  4. what shite are you buying...
  5. There'sno. of different products the G3 one may need different resistors than the book says to make 'em work
  6. Deltabell E requires nothing apart from a negative link
  7. hiys
  8. I believe different frequency prevents the use of normal visonic devices
  9. I had also had a glass place, Large workshop no detection 9448 or similar in an office block, equally crap fire alarm... Thomas Higgins letter than ccj for a few hundred quid of work (iirc)
  10. Just don't... the basic stuff is the hardest because there's no proper logs or diagnostics, Something like a euro mini would say something like Fuse Failure 100 31/05/24 11:30, Silenced by user 1 31/05/24 11:33 You then replace the fuse, note the landing sensor does not light up, look in the loft to find a rat has chewed the wire or whatever Alarms are a massive pain the balls, don't get involved.... I regret getting involved In the words of Zammo Maguire - Just say no...
  11. don't get involved in another one,.... When purchasing a house they or their solicitor should have the common sense to have the vendor declare the alarm working or not, ideally providing a service report dated within the last 12 month. Control, cable or device - Controls, does the controls have 12 volts on the aux supply ? (check fuse?) Device, does the device have 12 volts present to power it Cable, does the power cable have low ohms when made into pair. same for tamper & 12hr circuit. & high ohms between every other pair ? Why do I say don't get involved ? Who do you think there are going to ring on an evening or weekend when there alarm won't set, bleeps too much, does not bleep when it should bleep..... YOU Find a local proper alarm co. or tell the end user to find one
  12. Apart form the 5 csl devices I have in place
  13. don't get involved in alarms is best advice I can offer... do you have 12v dc at every pir, have you checked the fuse...
  14. I just reposted what I had seen elsewhere, however - I never knew they had bought Chiron, however I can't think of anyone who used Chiron...
  15. appeasr the alterative to redcare might just be.... redcare ? https://www.addsecuregroup.com/newsroom/addsecure-enters-the-uk-alarm-signalling-market-to-continue-bt-redcare-services/
  16. Small scale manufacture pre 1970's would probably be on breadboard ? There are chunky but modern looking resistors & capitors. All components are marked in white text along Co. Name & model no.. Use of slotted screws say built up without power tools A 4x4 box is very heavy duty or predated the plastic alarm cased detection of the 1980's ? I've never seen one before or heard of the co But item would have probably been in warehouse or similar & probably quite pricey in it's day
  17. Looks 1970s to me ?
  18. I assumed spam, but looks like good info
  19. Do they have JD Weatherspoons?
  20. Off thier tits on Halal Carlsberg ?
  21. The president of Iran dead wrapped in a blanket- The bloke from verisure still appears to be trying to sign him up ?
  22. Congratulations on being our latest alarm expert & welcome to the moderation team....
  23. As I understand it a a switch mode power supply switches on & off this is what I assume you are seeing on a scope ? Texecom has been around nearly 40 yr & turn over nearly 40 million, My stuff works, yours system despite your test equipment & qualifications doesn't ?
  24. Sorry I disagree- I've never had any reason to use an oscilloscope on an intruder alarm nor do I need a £500+ multi meter (it would only get lost or broken out in alarm land) Aged 17 or so I knew something like a 9600 required a power supply to run all 16 zones & multiple keypads & speakers Who would have guessed more than 30 years later I'd still be having conversations with people who don't understand the basics principles, Suitable current in day & alarm, suitable voltage at each device when running off the battery, if you've not got this you'll have problems Your alarm appear to have lots of problems I've got lots of alarms with very few problems, its funny old world isn't it ?
  25. Me? I think there horrid things to work with- I had to ring risco the other week to find out how to toggle the channels to test a dualcom Beyond paying me to stand there in person & press buttons whilst swearing at the alarm until it works the only support I can offer is moral support.... @naeem7861 you can do it son ! The full manual is online, if you don't do alarms it probably makes more sense as I have a preconceived idea of how things should work & this is an Israeli product targeted at North America ?
