  1. Hi Richard and welcome I see you have applied for trade please PM your evidence over, you need to make two more posts according to the rules
  2. Where exactly is the bullying? Nobody has taken your lunch money. Everyone has given answers to your questions, Ive just gone back and read them all and none of them were threatening. Everyone that has participated in answering has said it depends on the project (In their own words) which is another way of saying that none of us have a set setup we all install cameras to the customers needs and adjust accordingly. I cannot see the arrogance you describe, they are replies, I can see the frustration in your replies, as if the answers given are not really sensible or something
  3. As I remember they were a bit a of bugger to program two phone menus one for the built in digi the other was for dialer and both very similar I often made the mistake of being in the wrong one
  4. LOL I wasnt taking the piss I was trying to explain how it is. Nobody here is out to get you, you just need to try and get us
  5. It may come across that way but its not intended too, its a nerdy forum full of nerds that sometimes have difficulty getting theyre point across. But sometimes the other nerds are not listening unless its something they were expecting to hear.
  6. I im guessing that the quote above is what he was waiting to hear, everything else did not really make sense as none of the other figures fitted. Which is fine horses for courses but why bother asking
  7. TBF Thats what we all said
  8. My body's a temple I dont eat sweets at all.....and anyway the Polo is for you
  9. Guardall panel no longer made, I have installed them in the past didnt like them that much then, I wouldnt want to take one on now. We look after group of leisure centres and two of the bigger sites have Chubb looking after the intruder, every year the customer asks us to take them over, and I keep giving them a price to replace the panel, it never gets any cheaper and Chubb keep the contract.
  10. You wouldn't believe he is only a couple years behind me would you
  11. Cheaper recorders only record on motion Our recorder records all the time but only saves motion, we can set it to save up to 30 seconds before and after the motion, I have yet to have an incident missed
  12. It all depends on the requirements thats why everything is adjustable. Bigger HDD are cheap nowadays so we normally set it to the highest possible setting depending on how many cameras and the amount of days required and the size of the HDD. Nobody has a crystal ball (not one that reliably works anyway) so nobody can predict when they are going to need to look at theyre CCTV to see what happened in the past. In most cases its after their car got broken into, or they were burgled, or a neighbour was burgled, or an incident that happened that day or within a few days. So ideally you need good recordings for the first couple of weeks at least. We rarely use 25fps on domestics in most cases 10fps will gather enough info, I drop the bitrate if we are not achieving the days required on motion detect. At home I have two recorders a cheap one recording the sub stream and the premium one recording the main stream. I get about 2.5 weeks on the premium, I figured if I hadnt noticed something that happened anytime over two weeks it wont be that important. However, just in case, the cheap NVR which still records better than my old analogue system for 2 months. It works well for me I might try selling that idea to my customers sell two recorders = more dosh. As a bonus to security one recorder is in an out building so it would be difficult to steal both before the Police arrive if I were burgled, so its win win
  13. Oh thanks Norm that so kind of you. Data what remedies do you have for broken nose
  14. how many cameras do you want to record, and how long for?
  15. I have an home automation system that will get cheap jibes very shortly from Norm, and I will then be asking Datafusion for the best size bandage for a broken pride. Hi and welcome
  16. hi and welcome
  17. Put subcontractor in the subject line, everyone I know is really busy and most co's are looking for good subbies. We are looking ourselves but ideally we would want someone local to our jobs, currently south of uk, south and north London, and we have one coming up Somerset.
  18. When you minimise it you will find that its gone to the bottom right running application box. if you right click on the icon you can then open or close the app or run on top monitor, this will bring the app up on top of the screen and you can move it around the screen and change the size. Sorry for the delay in reply I hadnt noticed you had replied
  19. Phone and email all your local co's would be a good start
  20. hi and welcome
  21. Expensive doorstop
  22. Hardwired or Wireless Texecom Scantronic Honewell HKC Wireless only Visonic All the above brands any model will do what you need
  23. Now what would Thora Herd do?
  24. Its possible, we have a sites with water sensors, that signal to the monitoring centre. But surely the tenants would spot a water leak and do something about it?
