  1. Agree, not something I would do, almost promoting his company as a dummy Alarm installer, gives a poor impression to me.
  2. Just saw your clip, yep mine works a lot faster than that! Be interesting to find out what it is causing it, I don't have any net remote errors on mine. contrast would be nice but not a game changer for me, mine seems clearer than yours but that could just be the recording playing tricks.
  3. I feel your pain, be interested in why they are so slow though? i haven't installed one for a customer yet, I'm just testing one and it is as quick as a wired one for sure. you have a valid point on the contrast though as it does seem a bit dark.
  4. PSE, I had the arming issue before with DT, I've found that if I go into zone setup and use the "(double reset) on each wireless zone all the way through to make sure there's no data at all on the exp before we attempt to learn anything in has always worked for me. i had a big site that I inherited from a colleague that would just sit there waiting to arm, it boiled down to the fact that devices had not been learnt on correctly and then the receivers were not being cleared before starting again. ( I believe he was powering devices up but pressing the tamper switch as they were pairing with the exp??) After defaulting everything and staring a fresh it was fine. In relation to your keypad issue, I too have a new kit set up myself but with only 1 wireless rkp and it's been running fine for 3 weeks, it is very responsive (to my surprise) as I didn't have high hopes for a battery keypad but it works great. Be interesting to see if you have any network errors logged on the system? best of luck Stuart
  5. Had a mate years ago that had all his quals but no NVQ, they wouldn't entertain it so he came back and did his 2356 (sparky NVQ) and went back and I haven't seen him since, so he either made it, or he's lying somewhere very sunburnt. i would imagine the qualifications held are compared to that of their own standard, last time I checked a fully qualified uk electrician has one of the highest ranks in this situation. another old work coleague of mine did 1 year in Oz and 5 in New Zealand. Both for fire and security companies, and he had no Qualifications at all, not even time served.
  6. And breathe... Your totally right in what you say there though, we have had more than a few occasions where kit gets swapped only to find the problem is still there. Had one So called "Engineer" ring me up panicking as all the fuses in the panel he was working on had "dead shorts" on them. Not even funny really.
  7. I think you would know if you were going to be rejected. He wouldnt have been that praising or polite from what ive seen and heard of the inspectors
  8. I rekon pse and the ssaib man are stumbling out of the pub right now after an all day piss up.lol Hope it went well
  9. I normally find that the anticipation of these kinds of things is much worse than the event. You have done all you can do try to relax and sleep well so you are alert tommorow. I dont think it will be difficult at all for you. Good luck
  10. Ssaib platinum. Now that would be a good laugh!
  11. This is public #just saying Before to many ideas are given out
  12. Its when the hard disk is flaccid You moron
  13. Security guard was the pussy not me!
  14. I turned out to a call bout 2am once, to a cottage hospital very old with a lot of history. Gets there and the guards outside. So we go inside and start looking around, i looked at rkp and then found him, i said have you been upstairs ? He said im not going up there. Then he told me about a dead patient who haunts the place and he was serious he wasent going upstairs so i did. No lights i add as he didnt know where the main switches were! So i come back down and about 4 mts away from us was a porch entrance with a pir hooked up to a bell as a chime. The chime rang... Neither of us were anywhere near it nor would it have faced our direction, i said theres no way we triggered that so we quickly ran outside and checked the perimeter. Nothing. So we went back in and he says maybe it was.......... (cant remember the name of the said haunter) And the chime went. At that point he says fook this im going come on. System was re armed and locked up, I wasent that bothered but the guard said all sorts have happened when hes been in there and now refuses to go upstairs!
  15. Put it in plastic trunking inside the metal then! Technically still seperate!lol
  16. The "shoulds and coulds" are a joke in this document (5839) and imo variations need looking at as well because theres nothing stoping you wiring it in coax and using a variation! We have always asumed in 5839 that shoulds are "musts" and install to that idea, the only variation we have used is mcp hight to match other switches ect on new build
  17. I wonder why!Brits on tour me thinks! Lanzascrottie What about vannila ice,s teeth on page 1
  18. In all the films ive seen the pool boy always gets the hot cougers, you missed out dude. Having said that you **** would have rotten off by now!
