Guest anguscanplay Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 yep LOL, its a serious point though. i would say EVERY SINGLE site we`ve upgraded has had a least one or more times when the systems not been set due to <<< CAN`T SET CHECK >>> been ignored.

I explain how strobe confirm is the ONLY way they can be sure the alarms set but its such a sea change from what went before its like trying to wean you off using a neon.

I explain how strobe confirm is the ONLY way they can be sure the alarms set but its such a sea change from what went before its like trying to wean you off using a neon. neons are like my socks - i have a pair for each day of the week - and twice on sundays i was discussing in the context of this post being a simple system for an elderly sperson to use (coud flogg him mine ) so i think ARC is not an issue, all i know is i've spent many years training keyhoders to look at the alarm display before setting and after unsetting - but the current 'vogue' imo encourages 'set and hope' type of proceedures. regs alan If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!

Adi Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Risco wireless sounders constantly ring, that factory default, i programme them for ten minutes, the batteries (when new) will last for over 6 hours of ringing. Wisdom wireless keypads are c##p with a capital C. The wisdom is a sound panel, but i wouldnt wait for the agility cuz gods knows how many years it will take them to finally release it. The amount of times the local branch kept banging on about the new agility, are you coming in again to see it, we have an open day the agility is on show, but no ones knows when its coming out or at what cost. I really can't be ar**** with it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
