    Alarm Upgrade

    Well if you use supervised loop then you will save two cores at each detector Currently you might have a global tamper , but you won't need that

    There's always taxing problems lol They still do the free cloud I believe but for DIY it's not bad if you can get your head round it

    Alarm Upgrade

    Your going to DIY it? Scantronics ion 40 if that's the case If not then hkc and others will say texecom? You said no to wireless then said WiFi keypad , so you mean yes to wireless where needed , most panels these days will offer hybrid options

    For testing purposes why not? Surely your not relying on the bell for protection?
  6. al-yeti
    Temporary move bell next to or nearer to panel? Maybe there's a channel issue interference?
  7. al-yeti
    Tamper connection?
  8. al-yeti
    What's sia mean then
  9. al-yeti
    Yeah but but but your hardcore Cmon man stop using dodgy stuff I send you
  10. al-yeti
    Although what you picked will also get to you eventually Eaton far behind and you picked them because? Enforcers? Because of hik? Just wondering
  11. al-yeti
    I dunno, but I do feel like greeting you one day with an accenta
  12. al-yeti
    Assume like any panel he's pressing reset silence and as he isn't a fire engineer he doesn't know how to fault find what the problem is
  13. al-yeti
    Sounds bit hardcore , just entertaining you until swb gets here
  14. al-yeti
    Maybe, but we don't all have same ideas and I have been on a site where other engineers gave me better ideas Maybe wait until your engineer turns up and starts and brain storm with him Usually if I think I am going to damage anything I won't go ahead especially on residential, always good to check with owner if there happy with it Some don't care at all , they say drill it break and say decorator is being paid to fix it ..........,

    You said above you have organised an install , why not just now deal with installer?
  16. al-yeti
    Of course..... Lol
  17. al-yeti
    Confused dot com lol thread hijack at its best or your pissed in macds
  18. al-yeti
    Hkc have them, some are not impressed with pic quality But it will do for quick snap shot Do main CCTV outside instead
  19. al-yeti
    If it's for entry why not add PIR cameras for snapshots? Depends what you picked in the end Ring camera system and others like it rely on movement , they don't have any kind of trigger where you can integrate the alarm and them So you would have to enter as opposed to look to see why it triggered and so on
  20. al-yeti
    As above skilz that ai can't replace lol
  21. al-yeti
    Hkc
  22. al-yeti
    Try local independent installer if possible, your paying *£2640* assume no vat reclaim either Access to keep cables apart is main issue , depends how much your house you want taken apart Or is apart currently already?
  23. al-yeti
    What they giving you for that price ? Hard wired , are you refurbishing? Probably cost maybe more in some cases
  24. al-yeti
    But most alarms will only connect to one router at a time Unless you have a router with dual path in itself I remember that I think on those old drayteks, not sure if new stuff does it Service ? Yes battery checks , replace wireless devices, check signalling , check all devices operate Again servicing yourself ususally means you will forget something or cost cutting, which is ok if you know what your doing If it's texecom Vs enforcer , go with texecom But either way you will need an installer when you get stuck, or to setup your app control Where in London ?

    Hard wire if it's possible, windows contacts most better wireless in my view for aesthetics and headache Some service every 6-12 months, some after a few years, some people wait until a fault develops, that's advantage of contract , they do the service and book it in as matter of course Good solid wireless system doesn't have many call outs ,except if your WiFi isn't behaving , then you might opt for dual path and gsm option addition If your not competent get your installer to move devices, most usually mess it up trying to avoid paying, it's normal
