goncall Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Know anything about American alarm systems? Their idea of an external sounder is + & - to ring & two wires for tamper. a bit,worked on focus for a while,2 wires for tamper,whats a 0v return then? forget sounders no one listens to them and no one foams them anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rulland Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Yeh no h/o, but in their eyes they see it as a secure way of doing things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magpye Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Don't forget the Ademco door contacts, huge external screws for the contact, & NO tamper Someone told me I was ignorant and apathetic, I don't know what that means, nor do I care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goncall Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Don't forget the Ademco door contacts, huge external screws for the contact, & NO tamper when was the last time,if ever a first time you seen a domestic contact bypassed...its a good system for keyholder responce,it would sell in the thousands in the uk,its what people want in todays gadget market..

james.wilson Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Fact is though home automation is going to be big and has been overlooked imo by all the panel manufacturers in the uk. We are going to do this but probably without a control panel. Basic security is included in these units and is what people want. My own system uses 1-wire stuff for temp monitoring and z-wave for device and HVAC control. Im trying to link it to my HKC for useful info from the alarm but all i really need is to be able to arm/part/disarm via the HA and report alarm events into the HA system. securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

james.wilson Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 No probably not (ie pulse) but low end basic HA is in demand. Plus panels like the powermax are already linked to the likes of homeseer. Once mine is finished and running correctly ill do a little review. securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
