Hi, Going to be doing a full alarm install for a farm, now I've noticed that the the Barnes will need some form of protection, my first instinct is to use door contacts to prevent false alarms. The only problem I'm having is to find a door contact with an IP rating that will prevent corrosion or any build up of dust etc. I was thinking I could maybe find some sort of cover to make a cheaper door contact Ip rated, or apply a silicone sealant around it? Anybody got any ideas? Matt

just looking at the manual see it now 51.13, select mode as 2, and audible panic as 1 lads never new that can mimic fire, panic and assistance through the remote keypad, clever stuff

nice one , will give it a try!

Hi, Just trying to use the panic function for the TCB800M-1 keyfob with the galaxy 2 after three seconds the LED's flash then nothing happens, I tried this while the system was unset!. The keyfob will set, unset part set and night set, I also assigned it through the user option, and under the master user Any advice would be great!

its just im sure i set the exit time already at 30 ok nice1 and yeh i know but its just he was a window next to his door, so if anything they'd probs try the window as thats what they did b4

The exit route users a pir, as thats what the client wanted, all i want it to do is give them 30 seconds to leave once on full set, and then 30 secs to unset the system when the enter through that way. Could it be something to do with the exit terms option?

HI Just reticently installed a galaxy g2-20 with an RF module and 3 wirefree detectors. I've but one as final with 30 seconds exit and entry time and the other two are set to intruder. Also paired the detectors up with the panel using the force tamper method. Now when setting the system in full set the bar just stays to the right and theres no count down at all, could there be any reason for this just i've done two systems the same and never come across this before?, all i get is a constant beep and the system will now set, however if i try part setting the system I get a count down of 25 seconds and one of the detectors goes off when u go in the room, the final one just doesn't work. Probably a simple solution to this if any1s got any ideas would be great

for the reply tried that and it worked, guy insisted that he only wanted three screws so guess that was the problem will have to tell him another screw will be needed this time next to the tamper spring lol and yeh i managed to work it out myself cause ones the negative tamper return normally closed and the others the negative supply so put the 2 together and you mimic the normally closed circuit!

Hi just connected a texicom veritas to a honeywell ag6 bellbox. Powered the panel up and noticed its now gone back to factory default. Not only this when testing the sounder outputs theres no bell output or strobe output. Also the tamper light is permanently on. Connections to the panel from the sounder were as below. C = TR- D = V- S = ST- A = V+ B = S-

Dont suppose anybody knows the approximate cost's do they just having a look on the NSI website now but can't seem to find anything that gives a direct answer?

Great sorry if I confused you but I understand now that it maybe the best way to go if I start to work towards that!

I know sixwheeledbeast Im just looking for advise on how the process works what I need to do to get that ball rolling, I guess it'll probably take a few years of ongoing assesments of work, and doing CPD's and attending courses even maybe?

so basically I need to get my nsi certification in order to provide a full grade 2 system!, I have already been working inline with the BS7671 in terms of cable routing and containment of cabling, and also in line with EN50131 in terms of the alarm designs, and equipment used!. Not only this I keep my own specifications, commissioning records etc and have a full jobs list and document control system in place!, how long would I need to do this over in order to become certified? I also fill out all the required standard sheets as to NSI, and produce my own cable schedules, and in some cases even do my own detailed wiring diagrams I also think a quick layout drawing indicating the placement of detectors, control panel, & external sounder is good in order to back up your risk assesment in terms of weak points within the premises and how good the coverage of the system is! This information alongside the general overall risk to the premises in terms of usage and area also backs up the grade of installation & equipment needed in my eyes I think the honeywell galaxy 2 is a superb system because I believe that wired & wireless systems both have there own unique benefits, and with a galaxy 2 you have the ability to get the best out of both wireless and wired together!

lol whos alarmscott?

so only the galaxy 2 is a grade 2 then?

Look it's an elderly person that has been burgled if the old guy can get it free off another company will advise him to do that and refer him to someone else I just want to do whats best by him really, in the meantime i want to put in a lower cost panel to keep him safe for now! for free will he be able to get it for free if i refer him to a company that is certified?

oh and a specification to yes but the alarm system was damaged by the burglars he want's to try and claim it as damaged property so can you still get reduced insurance rates as a non approved installer? I dont understand fully here so the guy can claim insurance for the job if i were to be approved but to get his insurance rate lowered it only matters on the grade of the system installed? and im not gonna just fit what i want how i want going to fit whatever i fit in line with the en50131, and also provide the client the best system for them look I've had this problem before Im not that other guy if thats what you think!, I take pride in the work I do. I take longer and dont charge the client more!, i like to know ive done a good job!

Yeah but he can still claim his insurance right?, And of course the grade means something you can still get insurance lowered if you follow the guidelines of en50131 in terms of quality of install and documentation and tests carried out! you can issue your own certificate of install along with commissioning documentation!

Hi, Just got a few options on a resent install that I'm going to quote for, firstly I'd like to ask if the person has previously been burgled and there system has been damaged as a result to this can they claim this on there insurance if the system was a grade1 system and it's never been altered since they moved into the property? also got a number of ideas on a system I'd like to install the 1st been at the top! 1. Galaxy 2-20 with RF module & AG8 sounder, wireless PIR's & with informa auto dialiier 2. Galaxy 2-12 with double balanced zones and activ 8 PIRs' and informa dialler 3. Visonic promax wirless system 4. Acenta Gen 4 with lcd remote keypad, activ8 pirs, informer autodialler & ag6 sounder Any opinions would be great!

datadiffusion I bet these guys havn't even filled out a risk assessment form never mind know what one is! filling out and leaving good documentation is paramount on any job that you carry out as this not only back up yourself but also helps the next guy that jumps onto the job!, in all it's doing the best job for the client as they have to pay extra for more time taken due to **** paper work been left! and if you don't fill out a risk assesment form before you carry out a job and you have an injury you may aswell not be insured for anything including public liability!

what your wan*k list?

could be a brain hemorrhage tbh

lol, how much it cost a tenner for 1 bag haha

friend awwww friend my ******* friend
