Surely you have a contract with your staff? Confidentiality should be covered in that

hi and welcome

I prefer Axis and Arecont high end, though I have dabbled with Mobotix, we installed a QM24 360 camera for one of our customers which was good, but a ball ache to make it work with our NVR/DVR. Lower end its Hikvision (which is fast becoming a top brand) Dauhua I use quite a few Dynacolor/Optiva cameras nowadays. Indigo vision is a strange company closed protocol, they seem to rather lose work than sell to non authorised partners even when the customer is unhappy with the authorised partner, which in this day and age is almost suicidal for businesses in such a competitive market. Dont get me wrong I believe that the USP is not to be the cheapest, but it should not be do it our way or not at all at any cost.

Hi and welcome, we have used Mobotix in the past I still have a M15 on our building

Hi Renato and welcome to the forum

I would highly recommend http://www.alarming.co.uk/

Hi and Welcome

In answer to the question, domestic small 8 is normally enough, domestic large could be more than 100 we have a couple of very large houses with 100 or more zones. Commercial the same, though some can go quite a bit bigger. Today I quoted a 20 zone domestic, a 70 zone commercial, an 8 zone domestic and a 9 zone panic system. That's not an average day but I would guess I get at least one day like this a month

You could try electrical wholesalers, or ADI gardners or Enterprise or Security warehouse online

Virgin have programmed the Modem to the new Mac now. I have ordered an upgrade so hopefully the problem will be no longer soon

Really?? A system that is prone to false alarms is likely to go off regularly, so what happens with a system that is always making a nuisance of itself. It gets ignored, or the end user stops using it. Rubbish systems poorly installed give burglar alarms a bad press in general. Cheap cable is not a good idea when you are considering something that is designed to protect your property. As a professional installer the last thing we want is anything that can cause any sort of unreliability, we would always recommend DIYers to do the same I am sure you would say the same about CCTV surely a cheap CCTV system is better than no CCTV system. My thoughts are that a cheap CCTV system is no better than a dummy camera. A cheap CCTV system will only tell you what you already know. The Bitterness of Poor Quality remains Long after the Sweetness of Low Price is Forgotten

Hi and welcome

Its a paragon plus thats whats wrong Even Pyronix have stated they wont support these any longer as theyre obsolete. I think its because they were never very good to begin with

Well I could have set up several ip's via a router but I never got round to it. I wanted the server to be the Firewall, not that it has prevented **** getting onto the engineers PC in the rest area.

Charlie take heed of this warning, you have already been asked to stop.

I concur

If we can do that Tuesday that would be great I need to order a replacement server to so need a spec really

Cant you multitask?

Ill do it then Hi and welcome

Must admit it is a bit contraindicative

LOL Ive just read this thread and its would seem that someone has got themselves in a predicament
