    Same here for our preferred product, I don't see why I am being "mental". Just like you don't do Scantronic we don't do Risk-o, the Rokonet detector was the nail in the coffin years ago.

    I wouldn't agree, but to each there own.
  3. sixwheeledbeast
    Seems possible yes.

    Most good quality quads have background temperature compensation, without having to switch to microwave only. Like http://www.optex-europe.com/products/optex/44-oml-dam/

    Winchester! Southerners

    My opinion is if they have got into the premises to use an umbrella or cloak then the protection isn't correct. Masking could be done days before a break in so AM is important here.

    Better to find a decent installer than a system IMO. Different companies use there own preferred kit.

    Fighting talk?

    The brand ACT, however, I haven't seen any other "Anti-Cloaking" detectors. Why do you feel you need anti-cloaking detectors?

    Find three or four local approved companies and get them out for a quote/risk assessment. http://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/forum/268-uk-security-installers-by-regional-police-force/ Go with the company you feel most comfortable with not the cheapest. If your in doubt post the quotes up here so we can give our opinions.

    "ACT" is a Rokonet only feature.
  12. sixwheeledbeast
    Well If you have less than 16 devices yes. I have used Bosch pet PIR's they seems to work but as I have already said "Pets == Perimeter Protection" I actually said FX50QZ if you read my post again carefully. I have already answered these questions.

    Bit of **** never hurt anyone. Normally you can tell if you want a brew from how well the house is kept

    Without seeing the picture I'd say that's a good shout.
  15. sixwheeledbeast
    No

    I would normally recommend perimeter protection for rooms with pets, especially for cats. K Band DT or I prefer a Super Quad PIR. I.E. Honeywell DT7550 or Optex FX50SQ I haven't used one but I imagine only the casing is different. Installing them and wiring them correctly! Ideally they should be on there own zone. May not even be possible to do this depending on the panel and cabling.

    Never connect anything in parallel on the speaker terminals. Impedance is important so the driver doesn't get damaged. A sound bomb is a sounder and would have to be connected to the bell terminals.
  18. sixwheeledbeast
    Erm, a "dual sound bomb" isn't an "extension speaker"
  19. sixwheeledbeast
    I echo dd's comments Facing the front door is not ideal for a PIR, walking towards a detector has less detection beams than across. I would recommend a front door contact for starting and terminating the timer (final set). Check the settings inside the detector.
  20. sixwheeledbeast
    I think that would be a good idea.
  21. sixwheeledbeast
    Ah, so there's no 4i takeover on the cards yet then.
  22. sixwheeledbeast
    Half a job, Brough?
  23. sixwheeledbeast
    ESSEX?
  24. sixwheeledbeast
    I recommend Luxrite kit especially the Vectus G Series.
  25. sixwheeledbeast
    Also look at the local arm and disarm options.
