  1. You do realise this post is 13 years old....
  2. Lol, it’s all about the advertising.
  3. No mate, I’m installing various bits of their kit, I installed one of their newer CP10 panels earlier today and it’s really good kit, but needs a couple of tweaks stil. My preferred kit is still Texecom, installing loads of it at the min and accounts for 90% of our intruder side. Smartcom connected systems are growing nicely... works well for us.
  4. Surely 10 minutes or less of office admin time is far less than at least an hour of engineer time and fuel costs. There is your your saving right there ?
  5. The whole remote service side is fully automated, leaving nothing left to do on that side. Everything is fully audit trailed for compliance, again no record to manually update. No software to install means even more time saved as there is no messing about with programs and windows update issues. Real-time over the air updates and modifications via browser or smartphone, just like using wintex. It saves time, so it saves money. In the scheme of things the cost is nothing, we are charging large clients an annual fee for online portal access to see multiple sites status and additional costs per user login .... No brainier, it’s all paid for.
  6. I use Texecom Cloud, it works well. Wouldnt be without it now. Pays for itself.
  7. This is what I sent to CSL when I tested the Mini-Air a while back Mini Air - Texecom Remote Arm Configurations.pdf
  8. They’re not allowed to charge anything for using a credit card, whether consumer or commercial. Rules changed earlier this year.
  9. Code has been changed unknowingly, once you press NO, you’re in the edit option. Whatever final sequence of numbers you pressed is now the code for it.
  10. Can’t believe people still use their **** They have had their day now, They seem to be on a downward slope with the current line up of stuff they try to flog
  11. Yes, We’re SSAIB Accredited for Intruder, CCTV & Access
  12. I left school early, couldn’t be bothered with it. Didn’t do any exams and came out with no qualifications whatsoever. Did 2 years at a local plastics fabrication company, hated that but was a paying job. Whilst at the plastics company, they had a local company installing an Abacus system, I got talking to the installer called Graham, never forget that.. The following week I went out and purchased a Logic 4 and a few detectors and stuff, I learned everything from there, Started my own business in 1993, 25 years later I’m still here... I love the industry and the job, I don’t think I could do anything else now.
  13. One of our major clients ask to see our cards for every new site we visit, during the site safety induction. Without it we’re not allowed to leave the site office grounds unaccompanied or start any form of works. Myself, I have a Gold ECS card for Security systems, although I have no qualifications on paper, other than 25 years experience. My own cars shows nothing on the reverse under qualifications, but they still issue me a Gold upon renewal.. your issue is a little odd?.
  14. I've still got a fair bit of the older scanny stuff out there that's still going strong. Didn't really have much go wrong with it back then
  15. I am being serious, I speak as I find. IMO its bin tat. Were not refuse to use Orisec panels, I've said previously that they need a lot of work Their keypad plastics are fine, detector plastics and lenses are rock solid, BUT the keypad displays are far too cluttered and the text display quality looks naff I guess its each to their own, As someone once said to me,.... You can put lipstick on a pig,... But its still a pig
  16. I never used it, I saw the demo of it and that was enough, That muppet Norton tried to tell me how the antenna works on the panel, How superior their antenna system was compared to other manufacturers... He was totally talking out of his at$se at the time, He showed me the demo kit, powered it all up and it was utter dog *****. Wireless range was worse than poor, the newer keypads look like they belong in toysRus.... The kit is toss imo
  17. 1, The wireless keypad has a DIP switch, There is a cable in the box to hard wire, This will get it initially configured and setup on ricochet 2, Wintex Software does work, It works well if you know how to use it. I've used it for years. 3, Wired keypad zones can be mapped, In your case Map RKP zone 1 Panel zone to 5 & RKP Zone 2 to Panel zone 6 Wireless Keypad setup is covered in the small single page manual, Its a very simple and easy process If your wired keypad is set to Address 1, Enter engineers code on wired keypad Press HOME or MENU button / Press TICK or YES / Press TICK or YES Set the wireless keypad to address 2 using the DIP switch on the back, Then insert batteries When prompted on screen to (Learn Keypad) Press YES or TICK, Keypad will bleep. That's it, Job done Wired keypad will end up as Address 1, Wireless keypad is Address 2
  18. Not if you’ve a good working database of eng codes it ain’t.
  19. Yes, Karizma can be done, default user and engineer only. There is a choice of P pins that do a specific job. that all I’m saying in public.
  20. You could get someone to default the engineer & user codes only, no need for a full default. A decent alarm co / engineer could default them within no time at all.
