matthew.brough Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Hi Eky, The Premier is pro kit so won't be as straight forward as your normal DIY kit but is a nice piece of kit all the same. Do you have any specific questions we can help you with other than the above 2? Any speech dialler is fine as it is triggered off an output and does the bathroom really need a contact? www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eky Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 Thank you for your reply. I appreciate that this kit is pro! but when i compared the prices then the next one down was cheaper by £50 and the premier with additional 3 contaqs plus smart key + dialler + sounder was £650 circa. 1. Ithink i need contact for bathroom as one can access first floor rear without ladder hense is it ok to put wireless in the batroom or will i have false alarms? 2. will appreciate if you can identify middle price communicater make and model? 3. If possible i also want to know premier 48w wireless distance ability ( at what distance can i put either pir/contact for securing an area. 4.How many wired zones are on this panel? 5. Is it ok to put impaq contact on patio even if not used as entry/exit ? thanking in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most popular communicator seems to be the sd1+ seems to be very popular although never installed them myself as we only do central station monitoring,48 zones Not a raving fan of any shock detectors to be honest. Generally you either turn the sensitivity down so low a jcb bashing the window in wouldn't trigger it or you get plagued with false alarms. Avoid if possible.your out your depth mate,you need a quote from an installer in your area,failing that b&q it isAgreed if you need to ask these questions it may be an idea to seek the installation assistance of a small approved company close to you or to lower the kit spec to one a DIY enthusiast could master.Doesn't mean not happy to advise you on what you would like though and guide you on what is good or bad kit. www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21ninja Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 The Pemier 48-w can have 32 wireless zone and 4 wired zones out of the box as per texecom's spec. This can all be expanded via expanders and keypads. Have a look at the user guide on there web site for some more info. Agreed with others get some quotes from local companies.

sixwheeledbeast Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Bear in mind you won't get an installation manual with your "pro" panel. Texecom do a Speech and Text Dialler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

21ninja Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 The last one I had, had a quick user guide in paper format. Then the CD with wintex and master guide on it. Not sure if the install manual was on there never checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
