Remove the mains supply and put a meter across the battery terminals that'll tell you if it's cattled!

I've got the infinite prime with 5 pet IR,s two fully grown cats and in four and a half years not one false alarm, well not from the cats anyway

We've had a couple of issues with devices being jammed and it turned out to be ***** duracel batteries with a low O/P!! When batteries changed for GP cells the units performed fine!!

My bad, he told me this morning its an app update rather than panel firmware.

No idea where the 5 minutes comes from, Our sales guy was told about the five minutes thing by a Texecom tech last week, apparently its to stop someone setting their alarm from their phone (when there away) if there is someone still in the house moving around.

But the smart phone stuff doesn't conform to NSI, Texecom are doing a firmware update that doesn't allow setting if there's been activity on a zone within five minutes of you trying to set the system from your phone so what's the point of that you may as well prox out as you go, don't get me wrong I love tech, but IP intruder alarms are a bit of a turn off for me and I can't really see it as a selling point for new systems other than for notifications, but what do I know I thought EBay was gonna be a flash in the pan!

But how many customers want IP smartphone etc etc anyway, most want a system that detects an intruder and makes a row when it does!

If it wasn't for the crappy period Eaton went through with reliability issues the I-on would be the one i'd fit on 95 percent of most domestics, the Texecom is what our sales guy goes with and it works but they have had there issues recently.

Yep and everyone has their car key on their keyring that has the house keys and the alarm fob on. So the thieving twats get a vehicle thrown in to remove their ill gotten gains!!!

Yeah but then so is arming and disarming with a fob, they nick yer keys, they then have access to your alarm system, that's madness!

I belive a lot of manufactures have been discontinuing/upgrading models to make them onvif compliant. +1 for the Dahua/Qvis cameras, have 1 150 camera install with Exacqvision and another with 28 on Qvis Terminator NVR, both fit and forget with fantastic image quality.
