james.wilson Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 No if level 1 can arm, see status etc its non compliant. Unsure on the bell squawk though securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
lamplight73 Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Bell squark/ strobe flash on set is ok according to NSI as it is just a momentary indication. There was a time when this was interpreted as not acceptable, but then apparently NSI said it was ok. All about interpretation. You can tell the outside world that you have set the alarm with a bell chirp or strobe on set, but it has to be momentary. Strange though that keypads have to shut down so as to not show armed state, according to NSI, but it's acceptable to tell everybody around the area with a bell chirp/ strobe flash that you have just armed ( or not, more to the point) the alarm system. As with most things in our industry, not thought through.
lamplight73 Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 The NAPCO thing is a form of ACE so compliant in my eyes to set/ unset? Being able to tell the state of the system through a 3rd party app is something you need to ask NSI? A lot of things are determined by whether it is for insurance/ police response etc.
