  1. Good to see that there are stll a few manufactures still keep information 'in house'
  2. Practice makes perfect - in some cases, joke, magpye
  3. The strands along with the core of the yellow wire need to go correctly under the screw also, basic stuff needs a bit of practice. It also looks as though you have nicked the yellow insulation.
  4. Mr H. can I take from your last post that arfur is still around then? I quite miss him.
  5. Well, I've been an alarm engineer for as long as I can remember and what has been suggested, especially the first answer is the way to go. J, what do you think should be done then? Please put me and hundreds of others right then.
  6. MattS, your first picture is the control panel, what did you think it was?
  7. I know one company in the South East who makes reeds that are used in the alarm trade
  8. Sensors have been sealed against your 'bugs' for years now, I would be very surprised if that's it . Not a problem these days.
  9. I have always hated this keypad, it's the ugliest I've ever seen in my life. Would not have one of these systems ever, ugh!
  10. and this does not include airing cupboards
  11. Try Google, you'll be surprised!
  12. What would happen if a joint elsewhere in the property leaks, just asking
  13. re Secom and their red lamp, it's NOT a strobe, it operates when a 'confirmed' signal is sent to the ARC
  14. A battery operated Acorn control panel made in Cornwall c.1972, from an OLD garden shed, still worked
  15. It is an offence not to say who the driver of the vehicle was, surprised it did not go direct to your employers (or have I got this wrong and you are self-employed?
  16. Totally agree, no demand, who decided that, a pen pusher?
  17. What weakness? What is RR used for and more important, what else has to be done to get the Reset from the ARC in the first place?
  18. All very interesting I'm sure, but at least one (or is it two?) important piece of information is missing from all this. It's not been grasped yet.
  19. high gain aerial im thinking, they have longer leads also if i remember correctly. play with the positioning, higher the better.
