    I wouldn't do the resistance checks on the cable assuming eol. If DP then its seconds.

    Id agree it shouldn't take an hour 30 mins for 8 or so circuits.

    Do you do the paperwork check and the walktest on the same walk around or separate walks?

    This is mostly the initial take over and first service I'm referring to and most of the companies round here use dp.  All our new Installs are EOL unless its really low risk sheds etc but our usual way is to speak to customer ask about any problems and look at what paper work they have which is usually a zone list in the user guide and then we proceed to do all the checks on my first post.

  2. Hi fellas.

     

    On a new system we went to we had a customer and not for the first time comment and be rude about how long a service took on a mains wired system we check mains voltages, circuit resistance/voltages,induced A.C, aux voltage, act meter the battery, walk test,SAB and comms if applicable, current unset and in alarm for mains and battery and battery charging voltage off the top of my head we also had to make amendments to the system. My question is because I'm doubting myself now are we doing too much? The year after if the system wasn't monitored we would be more relaxed it seems all customers wants is a in and out job and I've worked for companies where that was the normal procedure the customer in 10 years didn't even have one installation  record or service sheet and was "maintained just the user manual with the zones which wasn't even up to date.

     

    Anyone's thoughts or advice would be appreciated.

    I no a bit about the tech side of rf devices but will admit no expert were slightly ignorant to wireless if I'm honest would rather fit a wired system any day but it seems more and more customers want it and in certain applications it does have its place 

    I've just read that post and it sounds terrible but I no what I was trying to say but today found a solution so all sorted thanks for your input 

  4. Hi guys, 

    Anyone really experienced with this panel? I've just started fitted them as our wireless domestic question I've got is the alarm response programming instead of triggering all sounders in full alarm it seems it gives options ie keypad then panel then siren etc all 15 seconds apart I don't like the thought of having any intruder in a property while it's doing its cycle can't you just set all sirens?
