C.S TEK. Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Can I ask why as when people are recommending a system they do not state why ie benefits, cost etc....Thanks I said this panel because its about the only panel that you wouldnt be able to buy on ebay. Maybe it is to much for you house. Depends what you want to do in the future. Maybe you want cctv or wants an access lock on you back gate/shed. I recently done a house that had flat roof either side and they wanted beams, so the panels was ideal because it ment the customer could have area one as house, area 2 as garage, area 3 as beams and part set area 1 at night. Panels are much as much, they all do the same thing as regards to set/unst ect.. They key to a good alarm is keeping it maintained and checking logs for false alarms ect. Go for Dualtechs rather than Pir's. little bit bigger mut much more reliable.

Bill Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 and no, nothing to do with initial, they dont exist anymore do they?? Yup, 'fraid they do... Bought by UTC second quarter of this year - UTC also own Chubb, and all the Kidde brands globally, though they are looking to sell off "lo-tech" business units, such as guarding, and armed response in South Africa....

mattykhz Posted December 21, 2007 Author Share Posted December 21, 2007 Went round the house yesterday and apart from the shoddy build quality and number of snagging items that will need fixing I found all alarm wiring to be in place. Looks like I will need 6 detectors so thinking of Eurosec V40DT's to go with a Gardtec 595. All wiring seems to be in place for internal and external sounders and keypad. BT point for alarm seems missing so need to get that sorted. Would anyone know if I can just add a wireless detector to this system to cover the garage ?

Alarm Protection Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 All a good choice and by adding a wireless receiver to the panel you can add the wireless detectors. ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miaren Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I would look at the FM Electronics kit, probably the 4100 or 4190 linked to the 4051 receiver. You will need a few spare zones to monitor the Alarm, Tamper and Low Battery outputs. Very reasonably priced in my view. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
