Hi Guys 

 

Im doing an installation where the monitoring alarm company has requested Sequential Alarm Confirmation . Im using an Texecom premier elite system and not to sure how to configure this.

 

This would be my first monitored system and im in need of a bit of help 

 

Thanks

 

Bruce

Hi Bruce 

 

Welcome to the forum

 

I am a little confused by your question though.

 

The only reason the ARC would want you to set it up as confirmed would be for Police Response, and the only way you would get Police response would be if you are approved, and in order to be approved you should be familiar with BS and how the product you are installing works.

Why? Why can't you have confirmed alarm without police response?

The question you should be asking is why would you? The second question you should ask is why would the ARC dictate what signalling you need for a keyholder only system, when you are their customer?

If you have no police response , why wouldn't you still want a call to say we received a confirmed signal?

If my alarm was keyholder only I would want to be informed as soon as it went off. There is not a lot more I could do about a confirmed intruder except panic.

I have known customers to only respond to confirmed...

But then you would have an informa on a dedicated line lol with GSM dialler backup, be serious man you know your a house basher 

Hi Guys 

 

Thanks for the quick response to my question . I will go back to the monitoring company and question then as to why they want this if its only necessary with police response.
