Guest Posted September 8, 2004 Share Posted September 8, 2004 That's a very unbiased reply for you bellman some very good advice 22754[/snapback] Don't know what you mean Bri I'm off on a factory tour in a few months of the manufacturer i'm not to keen on. We'll see if they manage to sway my opinion as it's been a few years since I installed them on a regular basis. although i'm sure everybody has their fave and "wouldn't touch with barge pole" equipment. as for advice, I'll happily dish it out if people ask me questions.

Guest toasty Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 for the all the advice boys. Much appreciated. I was looking into getting some of those solenoid door locks, but can't believe the price of them (£300 ish quid!!!) So I guess it's mag locks for me.... shame as they look a bit more obvious than nice solenoid bolts in the doorframes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest toasty Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Ok, so I have another question. I'll be wanting to control some external lights with the random timer out on the panel, also will want to control external lights via the panel outputs and some external pirs. I was going to just use octal base relays in plastic boxes. However I can see problems doing this in the house as if the alarm choses to turn a light on, and I've wired the relay over the lightswitch then there will be no way to turn it off, if I wire the relay in series then the alarm will only be able to operate the light if the switch is on, and the lights won't work from the switch alone. I could use the relay and a twoway switch I guess but that may be confusing for the wife (!) I could build something a bit more clever I suppose, but I guess you guys may be aware of a product that gives me a bit more flexibility? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breff Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Ive got an 88 in my house and i use the outputs to trip octal relays wired across the switches. Works perfect.....what do you mean you wont be able to turn them off!!! If you are worried about the lights coming on when you are in....use a custom output using a combination of random timer and system full set. Then they will only come on when you're out. Mine are wired into internal lights, the hall light comes on if the system is in entry between 19.00 and 07.00, and the hall & landing both come on if a smoke detector activates. The opinions I express are mine and are usually correct! (Except when I'm wrong)(which I'm not) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
