Gabs Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Can anyone see Honeywell/ADE releasing a newer Accenta G5? Or do you think they will keep the G4 going and just discontinue it, if people no longer buy them anymore?

datadiffusion Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I would be amazed if they even had staff left that ever worked on that product line, I could be totally wrong but would be surprised if they even owned the development equipment to make even minor changes to the G4 code either. So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/41028-accenta-g5-release/#findComment-459919 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't they make the G4, though? Surely they would still have the code. Was it Novar that made the G3? I would have thought after 11 years, it would be time for a new one. The G3 only lasted about 4 years. Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/41028-accenta-g5-release/#findComment-459921 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks stupid if you ask me. I wonder why they did that?

dufjax Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Did you know the G4 "is a Grade 4 alarm"... I didn't know either, apparently a sparkie told a customer it was....... So must be true!!

Ha, well, I guess who is the customer to question, is the Accenta a Grade 2 alarm? I can see why the customer believed him, because the panel says G4 on the front, of course it is Generation 4 Software it's running, like its predecessor, the G3 1 Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/41028-accenta-g5-release/#findComment-459926 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do customers ask about the security grade often or not?

Nope, not normally it was only because the sparkie brought it up. 1 Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/41028-accenta-g5-release/#findComment-459929 Share on other sites More sharing options...
