    Dualcom is supported on the g2 series either pins or dial capture , I belive WebwayOne is comparable on the g2 via rs485 data line and pins and dial capture (don't use WebwayOne so not 100%) Reset procedure is the same on the flex as other galaxy's Only ever fitted one flex. I go with either G2 or a full dimension

    If you've messed with system programming and it doesn't activate if your broken into. Your insurers may use it as a way of not paying out . I'd strongly recommend having the local installer carry out a maintenance ( as it should be getting checked every year anyway) and ask the enginee to turn down the volume while he's there. As others have said it's not their fault you now want it quieter

    Why not ask your installer to change it on a maintenance visit?

    Don't use cat5 if you can. Or watch for volt drop

    As Norman, nice and easy to takeovers. pain for some customers to reset, we have more issues with galaxy than any other system we have out there.

    Stats just a G2-20 with an RF portal and wire free devices. I'd say Galaxy was the most common commercial alarm panel. So yeah we've probably all used that equipment.

    Id agree £100 is cheap for a Saturday install. Is that the only issue you have with them? I'm on a decent wage Peter but I can't say I'd use tenners my cigars.... Fivers maybe. Weekend time with family is worth more than £100 in my book

    Old thread I know but I'm looking for one aswell. Can't seem to find one locally

    No don't have to use the bracket. We never normally do unless they are feeling mounted

    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.

    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.
  16. Lwillis
    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.
  17. Lwillis
    CVI can handle longer cable runs than SDI without repeaters or loss of image quality.

    That panel is obsolete now as has been for a while.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.
  19. Lwillis
    Run 1 8core to each device. And screened cable to the keypad. Extra cable from panel into loft space. And run one into garage for keypad

    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

    The viper, with the led on is the zone clear?
  22. Lwillis
    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.
  23. Lwillis
    Not sure on the older ones but if you go into zones it will give you the option of zones or rf zones.

    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

    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 .
