  1. Actually they look quite useful, well done! what sort of price would you retail them at?
  2. Range is the biggest downfall of a 360 they dont see as far as a wall mounted detector. They are really only meant for applications where there are a lot of obstructions like a gangway in a warehouse, or arcades where there are lots of arcade machines that obstruct the view of a normal detector. Plus the PIR detects much better when you walk across its field of view, which is why most detectors are placed in corners rather than the middle of a room. Give me a decent Optex quad any day
  3. Hard to answer a question like that over the internet, have you got a multi meter?
  4. BT will provide an input on your router for all old analogue tat, but there is no gtee sdi will work with it
  5. He is after a voltage free output, and the panel will drive the relay, adding another PSU will only complicate things
  6. or just connect a relay to the output and voila!
  7. I think you will find the security industry is exempt from construction industry scheme which means we are obliged to charge you https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/construction-industry-scheme-reform/cisr14290
  8. If he supplied it you would be able to claim 100% tax back his labour as well
  9. Psu in an Elite would be 2amp, each device will draw current, ancillaries such as keypads, expanders, and signalling all draw current, battery, and sounders draw current, and dont forget ohms law you lose current in the cable especially the longer cable routes. When the system is in alarm it draws even more current. Its why we do meter readings at the end of the install it ensures that we specified enough power.
  10. The consensus is only use wireless if its too late, or you like to piss Greta Thumberg off by filling landfill with old batteries.
  11. Caps would have to be pretty big in order to hold enough charge to make any sort of audible beep. Even the biggest caps would discharge pretty quickly after a powerdown. You may be charging a battery operated smoke from the same spur, or maybe a 12vdc smoke with its own battery backup somewhere.
  12. Im not sure on dual uplink,never used one. But a dodgy switch can cause issues, like a motorway full of vehicles going into a single track
  13. QFA If its down powered it cant make a noise
  14. If you drop the bitrate alot at each cam and it fixes it then you know for sure its bw. If it does nothing its a dodgy switch or low uplink somewhere
  15. Sounds like bandwidth, can you drop the bitrate on the cams a bit?
  16. Decent indoor sounder and signalling why annoy the neighbors
  17. I did think similar, but I dont really know Texe stuff. And I can never understand why people want two bells in the first place. I dont have one on my house let alone two nothing more annoying than a sounder going off on a lovely summers day, and nobody takes any notice apart from complaining about the noise.
  18. you cant replace the keypad with another make/model you can only replace it with the same
  19. qfa The main battery failing can also cause overload on the charging circuits, which in turn draws more power thus lowering the power to the detectors keypads and bell. this eventually kills the panel
  20. Wouldn't recommend pirs in series, after a fa how do you know which one went off ?
  21. Battery should be replaced every 4 years, it is another problem in the waiting.
