  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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?.

    So you like the orisec keypads yeah?

    Come on be serious it's not a bad panel , not many firmware issues like texe eh

     

     

    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

    When did you last use it?

     

    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

    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
