  1. 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
  2. TBF Thats what we all said
  3. My body's a temple I dont eat sweets at all.....and anyway the Polo is for you
  4. 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.
  5. You wouldn't believe he is only a couple years behind me would you
  6. 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
  7. 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
  8. Oh thanks Norm that so kind of you. Data what remedies do you have for broken nose
  9. how many cameras do you want to record, and how long for?
  10. 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
  11. hi and welcome
  12. 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.
  13. 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
  14. Phone and email all your local co's would be a good start

  20. Wont get many medium value vehicles, in a transit lol
