I have to disagree, as I recall most fa,s caused by code problems the numpty went further into the property to phone for help, so not only confirmed once but several confirms in most cases. Don't get me wrong I don't like fobs that much but I also see them as a necasary evil when it comes to large commercial and oap systems. Lots of people are just scared of alarm systems and they panic, my builder went into one of my out buildings the other day not realising it was armed, he had a code to switch it off but it took him by surprise he opened the door and panicked ran off I caught the whole lot on CCTV luckily I was in otherwise the arc would have been on the phone.

It's just banter James I don't mind

Hi and welcome

The other thing to consider is the fact that these have been the popular choice for dd243 systems since circa 2005. And no reported burglaries due to lost or stolen fobs

The other thing to consider is theft attractive property in the bathroom and attic. No burglar in his right mind is going to steal the soap from the bathroom, or your Christmas decorations from the attic. That said I would always recommend cover entrance points to the property

Qfa much as fobs can be considered as a security risk, the amount of numpties that used to forget or mistype their code and then panic when I was an engineer was astronomical. It's unheard of nowadays

LOL Not everything I sell is Chinese, HKC is Irish, I use three British Access control Systems, Our premium Hybrid DVR is built by us using Latvian Software and Korean Cards. and the kit I use for programming fobs and cards is Australian.

Hi Tom Integrated systems are fine for one or five doors, but it really sounds like you will out grow a bolt on system quite quickly, I would be looking at using a separate P.C. access control system that uses the same "secure format" technology fob/cards as the alarm. Why? Normally you find that with intruder alarms that can also handle access control will not have the flexibility or features that a proper access control system has. You have already mentioned you need time and attendance, a decent PC based system can talk directly with your accounting software, but to make this work properly you should ideally use anti-passback to ensure all your employees clock in and out properly. There are many features that a proper PC controlled access control system can do that a intruder system with bolt on access control cant. We are an independent NSI Gold installer based in Sussex we would love the opportunity to come and discuss your needs we promise that we will listen and come up with a future proof solution that will work for you within your budget, without the jargon and hard sell. Thanks Dave LOL

Hi Paul Welcome, I dont think ADT are a bad company they have got a lot of things right, and for their size they cope admirably.

If the battery does not have enough charge in it it may not power the system fully, this could cause the system to not boot correctly. Mains first will power the system fully, and then charge the battery

Bonjour bienvenue sur le forum

As above power up mains first then battery

hi

Hi and welcome, sorry I cant help either

Hi and welcome

Hi and Welcome You may be better finding a SA forum its not a panel we would be familiar with in the UK

Hi Pawel Welcome

meh! we still shut the door after the horse bolted

Hello and welcome Everything I do is custom but I am not in the West or the Midlands

All the while I have worked in electronic security, we have stayed one step ahead of the criminals, burglars used to disable main, so batteries for stand by were added, bells were ripped of walls, so anti tamper and self actuating bells were developed, sounders and bells used to get filled with foam, so anti foam boxes were developed, wires were cut and shorted together in lofts, so eol was developed, detectors obscured, anti mask was developed. As soon as a loophole is discovered its closed. But as a technical person myself, I can see the weaknesses in non wireless systems let alone wireless, wireless systems to anyone with basic electronic skills and some inside knowledge is vulnerable

We dont share them here, sort of tells you what should be happening. Most companies are looking for ways to protect themselves by using site specific engineer codes and code of the day.

Possibly Nihou Helen Welcome to the forum

Welcome and hi

welcome and hi

Although the big G was always a clever pane, I used to really like it, l but it has always looked dated compared to the competition.
