Wow, I know ebay might have some shady characters but I never imagined this sort of gear would be dodgy.

It's the ADT one which is new, I would have hoped the 2nd hand PCBs would have come from upgrades or new alarm co. taking over and installing their own stuff.

 

Strewth :)

 

Mostly off the back of a van excess stock , ADT can't control there stock....

Hello,

I'm just wondering about the amount of hardware you can add to a GD-C048 with the available address line.

 

The instructions say I can have 8 keypads (3 prox), 4 RIOs and 4 RF RIOs

It seems you can add lots of stuff but much of it is limited by the rotary address switches and there appears to be some overlap.

 

Is a keypad on address 2 the same as a RIO on address 2?

 

Basically, I have 3 keypads, 0,1 and 2, along with 3 RIOs and 1 RF RIO which must take addresses 2-5 which means, if they work as the same address, then one must overlap with a keypad, also the RF RIO tried to take up 2 bunches of addresses and in fact keeps appearing as 102x and 103x no matter what I set its switch to be, and why is there a gap between 5-B which I can't seem to use.

 

In short, do I need a 96 or above to run 1xTC(prox), 1xMK7(prox), 1xMK8(prox), 3xRIO, 1xRF RIO? It all gets a bit confusing :)

 

Cheers,

Gordon.

They could if they wanted, they could also audit parts as every part booked out (excluding consumables) has to be attributed to a contract number. 

 

In the grand scheme of things it's not seen as an issue. 

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

probably some kit gets booked to the site but never fitted  ?

 

programming fault rather than hardware issue...

Oh yes it's easily circumnavigated, but it all depends on how far you want to audit, i.e. checking the site for the part supposedly installed etc. Tyco used to have an investigation dept that looked at things like theft and fraud.
