  1. I'd continue though as what you have inherited is decent. It's a prosumer type system and there is plenty that can work on it. Have you not got any codes from the previous?
  2. Also remember that it's the installation and his skills etc and support for 12 months I'd also say it's more like a day than half a day too
  3. Are you arming all groups? Check it's all just group a1 maybe But to make things easier I'd do a topic per issue rather than a list in 1 topic
  4. When was it last serviced? A power fail shouldn't cause any issues the fact it has points to a problem imo
  5. You should be able to use a 3rd party reader and is better way than using the access to arm etc
  6. Never had this issue, is it a pay as you go sim?
  7. WHat do you have the internal siren programmed a, if its bell it wont when unset
  8. Sorry i have no idea what it is, thats possibly and probably my limitation, is it progeny based?
  9. ring and simplisafe etc have burglar guides on youtube, look yourself for howto guides on defeating
  10. Keep the data lines free and flowing make the powers short and together. You will know if you are happy with how it looks if your not do it again. Imo never make cables too short. Im not a dressed fan imo it has to be functional and practical. Stand back after and either be happy or move stuff and redo it
  11. Agreed app solutions are great for notifications but that's it. Give it time I'm sure it will improve, just like it got better with 3g then 3.5g then 4g now 5g. None of them cover the country tho yet. I'll say it will work well enough when WiFi isn't needed because we have 11a...
  12. On a wired system you can just replace the control panel. However how old is it all?
  13. Battery should be sized to meet standby req without knowing the system currents you can't size it correctly. I would go with the size you need. I'd also advise a decent brand, failing batteries kill panels. Nasty one fail faster and harder. I'd also say it's the panel battery as its showing 0001
  14. it will need to be replaced or chnage the code to not use that button, but at 20 yr old id be looking at replacing it
  15. That's doable without the video, is the call station sip or sim?
  16. to add i have also met sales reps that blame unit performance on reg changes or the regs in general when untrue.
  17. No I havnt. Which unit? Id say normal walk test would be to test it to the extremity of the protected area. I see a lot of other systems where 1 unit is used where 3 are needed
