Thank you

 

The alarm is now working it is amazing what happens when you keep looking at the manual over & over.

The part arm is quite simple just set the part arm & press chime to silent arm it.

The next problem is the com ports but I will open another topic for that.

 

 

 

 

I must be mad using this stuff, wintex with anticode being sold to anyone. Crazy. Sooner we get away from anticode the better.

What stops you whacking everything on engineer reset and disabling anticode?

We need stu relays to all be linked first. No chance todays punters are going to pay for an enginner, and I'm not UDL'ing everytime. It's on the list to be done as the Dualcoms come out.

I have to say I agree here. This is part of the dilema of using the 12-w. Support to end users and free availablity of the UDL software worries me. Be interesting if a case came about where the end user had used this to circumvent the acpo/standards requirements to involve the alarm co. One of the reason I like SIA, it dumps everything in the ARC log so we could historically go back and see of any malpractice.

It's a piss take, they could avoid this very easily by using activation codes for wintex, given out by tech.

Another reason we lock them and use a different code for UDL.

Gent has a ET phone home on their software and if it doesn't call in for a period of time it stops working and you have to get it activated in the first place. In fairness to texecom I don't know any intruder manufacturers that do require activation but obtaining the software for some panels can be a considerable challenge for a diyer for some UDL software.

Aaron the non approved market is bigger than the approved.

That has no bearing on their responsibilities to comply with BS8243.

I also plan to move away from URNs on domestics, I have no problem with that.

Gardtec require activation.

Does it permanently activate or do you need to phone home every so often?
