  1. Here you go. the +&- a post gets in the way a bit and breaks up the thread too much IMO
  2. iphone . was fine before the update tho seems okay on the laptop!
  3. no worries then. its almost unusable on my phone at the moment
  4. The strobe output is possibly wired into the bell trigger in the bell. Best call a pro in
  5. Is the battery charged correctly. Seems few batteries with reversed polarity on them.
  6. I've got some hightop scruffs, really comfy aswell
  7. Contact another local installer check the SSAIB or NSI website for a list of registered ones.
  8. No don't have to use the bracket. We never normally do unless they are feeling mounted
  9. Just had one system go pop with the recent lightning up here.thank god
  10. What analogue bit? Some of the dahua DVRs are a full tribrid (fitted them myself) and they will take HDCVI & Analoguge cameras & up to a certain amount of IP cams. Plug and play as well, the DVR will automatically sense the resolution of the input and display the image from the camera.
  11. I've fitted a few HIK systems and haven't had any callbacks with faults. For now I wouldn't bother with IP and would go HD-CVI, still 1080p images and the price is usually cheaper than IP.
  12. What are the extra restrictions of CVI over TVI? As far as I can see CVI give greater cable runs, also offers recording in 1080p can be run on cat 5 or rg59 SDI seems like the one with more issues (from experiance) than CVI. Although I have not use TVI.
  13. CVI can handle longer cable runs than SDI without repeaters or loss of image quality.
  14. That panel is obsolete now as has been for a while. I'd reccomend contacting a local approved company and getting it serviced. It will most likely require a new standby battery.
  15. You'll need to check the trigger type for the dialler It probably -ve trigger so connect it to a programmable output an program a intruder or the bell -ve trigger
  16. You need to drop the power to it for a few seconds before setting, we used to fit a n/c button on the bottom of the panel or adj the rkp.
  17. Not sure on the older ones but if you go into zones it will give you the option of zones or rf zones.
  18. christ, at a previous firm we were issued with a small 3 tred pair of domestic steps, for the house bashing stuff, instead of using the fiberglass ones. id just stand on a chair TBH lol
  19. I'm going to go to work tomorrow, bell my boss to FO and I want a cherry picker on every job because the ladders aren't safe. Can't use a pair if snips incase I cut myself. Or enter people houses incase I get a splinter from the cupboard door the panels in .
  20. Well I could have climbed up the ladders and stepped off them onto the roof, but the window was an easier option. So has nobody here taken any risks in their entire career? I'm not saying id Hanging off some tray and fit a camera but calculated low risk IMO tasks are okay.
  21. Wasn't that bad of a pitch, I'd say falling from ladders would have been worse. Grass isn't allways greener , especially when people bull **** you in the interview!!
  22. My first call tomorrow is booked for 9am (well between 9-12) in penrith. I'm on the coast near Newcastle upon Tyne. So about a 2hr drive to get to site. I could potentially get a call at 6am be out for 3 hours. Which would mean I'm pushing back jobs and won't get in until late and will miss appointment times. As others have said its not ideal but it's a means to a way. Climbed out of a bedroom window the other day and stood on a small pitched roof to replace a Bell. ( longest laddders wouldn't reach over the small extension). Wouldn't get a cheery picker in either. I decided the risk was okay to do it.
  23. That rule Wouldn't work for me. Last place I worked at had the rest time but I usually ended up going in for 9 anyway.
