For the same reasons the Map Six never caught on

Could be because in China it would be the right way up.

I had my phone upside down when I took it

I saw this and thought of you

Sorry no engineer manuals on the public side of this forum Rules of this forum are here https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/guidelines/

There is a difference with what I import to the tat that Yale imports, those panels are made by Unifore and rebadged we looked at importing them even purchased a couple of samples. But they were a pile of rubbish

Yale is Chinese tat rebadged, its cheap though

I have no clue as to what this topic is about, could someone please explain it to me?

Never a good idea to fit smokes in a orangey, especially second hand ones, I would use a smoke beam. What does your installer suggest?

Also the link is for a Canadian company and it just says free quote not free system, so unless your grandma is in Canadia I would forget it they wont come to the UK (Canada misspelt on purpose )

If someone got something for nothing, that means that someone got nothing for something. I dont know anyone that works for nothing as most people have bills to pay. More likely that its a rat to catch a mackerel and you will be tied into a big contract with high monthly bills. Bit like a loan shark. I would get three quotes from reputable installers if your really worried.

Okay I have pm'ed him via Facebook and asked him.

If you dont get anyone I know an ex engineer in Fife near Dunfermline that may be able to help. I know there are a few Scots on here already though

Agreed, you can put lipstick on a pig and call it your wife, but its still a pig

Ancillaries do not effect the grade of the intruder, grade is effected only by intruder components

Using all grade 3 kit and installing it to grade 3 is fine but you cant call it grade 3, in the same way as if we installed a grade 3 system and put a grade 2 door contact on it, it then becomes grade 2. Not a problem unless something happens and the insurer wants to see the cert

No, grade 3 is Monitored with Police response and in order to do this has to be under a service contract with an accredited company. The grading is always defined by the lowest denominator and so that would be defined by the service contract, none = grade 1. As you know a grade 3 is not in any way necessarily any more secure than a well installed grade 2 system. The door contacts are the biggest downfall to the reliability of grade 3. Personally I would always the necessity for full grade 3. The idea of grading was so that there was more clarity between the insurance companies and the installers. It didnt really work because insurers who do not understand the technology will always take the highest number to be the best, which you and I both know is not the idea of grading. The problem is not all installers are the same and so the insure cannot trust the installer to install the correct devices in the right environment, because unfortunately some are clueless, or employ clueless surveyors. Sad when you think of it, this industry could be so much better.

It also has to be certified and under a service contract by an accredited company otherwise its just grade 1

hi and welcome

As above but if that doesnt work try 03 instead of 30

Rain socks will never catch on, Hi and welcome

I always found it weird that the 9800 was the LED older panel and the 9600 was the lcd newer panel but the 9100 was the oldest panel.

If its working and does everything you need then there is no point. Galaxy and Texecom are two different brands BTW

Adjust the timer settings so it waits 20 minutes between checks that seems to cure it on the HKC, we have around 200 Wifi connected HKC panels now and rarely get a comms fault now. OP if you part set the alarm at night it will not go off at silly o clock in the morning to warn you of a WiFi fault, it will go off when you unset the alarm, to tell you that there was one in the night though.
