  1. That's what I said. I would say QXSX is on the right lines, but again you need to be careful when copying configuration over between different versions. Download and save a copy, then connect and change version. Wintex changes how the data is stored on the panels memory in the backend.
  2. Hi This is a UK based forum so it is unlikely anyone will have knowledge of that system. Your more than welcome to ask any questions.
  3. I am confused how it is a new Elite but from 2002? Are you upgrading a Pre-Elite to an Elite? You have to be careful if you are moving the programming between different firmware/panel versions.
  4. Maybe you'd like to expand on that...?
  5. Stick around and you'll be plumbing and welding like a pro.
  6. Possibly but think about the labour saving of using existing infra. I don't understand what you mean about a third core tho?
  7. I see little time difference in wiring two cores or four cores TBH. Doubt detectors will be asked to do that many statuses. EOL will not disappear overnight. I think IP could be another option in the future.
  8. Exactly, what I was thinking. Visonic make all sorts in 868 that should work, all Powercode I believe.
  9. I agree, this is a case that the ICO have been watching closely. They are currently working with the MoJ on how this is to effect UK law, but no update has been given AFAIK.
  10. You'll need to drive a DP relay from the lock output, then send a voltage to your lock from one side and a clean NC pair to your alarm zone. It's not as simple as linking them together you will blow something.
  11. I wouldn't have it set to disarm the system! If it was Switch2 or better still Net2 you could integrate it into Texecom that would be more secure. The Compact readers they are basic so having it disarm and unlock everything is a bad idea IMO. However, in theory yes you can drive a relay from the lock output of the reader.
  12. http://curia.europa.eu/juris/document/document.jsf?text=&docid=160561&pageIndex=0&doclang=EN&mode=req&dir=&occ=first∂=1&cid=17282
  13. Someone's put a swimming pool in the way...
  14. I think you will find there are outstanding changes as of December last year. ICO have updated there website to reflect these changes.
  15. That is not how the ICO interpret it, since the exemption changes last year.
  16. It doesn't work like that in real life scenario. Customers use the wrong code (bank code/ work code/ home code/ whatever...) panic and then walk around the premises sending confirmed alarms. No amount of customer training or instruction will help some users, there not interested. Prox tags have definitely helped to reduce FA's, most issues I get on the phone are from customers that still have codes.
  17. Terry's Chocolate Orange?
  18. Doesn't SIA Techmaster have one in the downloads section?
  19. 12 hours standby, so Quiescent.
  20. Mains could have surged when they put the power back on.
  21. 75%? 12 hours standby with an activation.
  22. Most will do this but there are downfalls. As mentioned it's easy to steal the card or camera. Also the flash memory (SD card) will get worn eventually, flash isn't good for continuous 'write' tasks. Wear levelling has increased the life of flash cards/sticks but still not really designed for this.
  23. So ... swap the batteries over to check it's the controls?
