Hi everyone 

 

Would really appreciate your advice. I have a Texecom premier 24 installed at home, which has served me very well, but was a pain to install 5 years ago when I put it in. I have a bunch of IR and magnetic sensors all wired up around the house with the standard keypad etc. So I now fancy an upgrade, I would like to minimize additional wiring and reuse all exiting wired sensors, so the question is what should I upgrade to (Texecom or other), and what would be required to do your recommended upgrade?

 

Would love to have a system that can be configured with a decent PC interface, and one that is able to send me e-mail notifications etc.. something using up to date technology that will be relatively future proof (as much as these things can be).

 

Thanks in advance for taking the time to reply with your suggestions.

If it ain't broken..

Are you sure you would want a security system that relied on smart phone technology?,feck me my supposed smart phone can't even make phone calls sometimes!.

Stick with the premier, add an ip module or wifi module and away you go. Do you know what version software you have?

I'd always assumed you needed an Elite for that stuff. That's an eye opener, didn't know that.

Nar, Older Premiers will run an IP module with ease,

I've for an old V7 Premier 24 with Com-ip running just fine, Working on Texecom app & notifications

 

There were no configurations in the Premier 24 for the Com-IP settings

Just bang it into a Premier 48, Write the details to the Com-IP and install it in the 24, You're away

Is texecom app free for end user ?

basic app is free

my test system is still waiting to produce a polling fail several weeks after I unplugged it

unless I'm mistaken basic apps shows your udl code...

Only if you dont encrypt it using the Engineers App..................

One of my guys made that mistake once, totally give him a right bollocking... He'll never do it again.

This is another security implementation were making from 1st October with our new software toy.

Each of our sites will have a random generated unique Engineer code and UDL code per panel

Still easy to pick up with wireshark for those that want it.
