Guest pietch Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Want to reset my //.National Installer.// alarm (don't know code and don't wont to pay //.National Installer.// any subscription). I have cats, can the sensors be set to ignore them? Do I need new ones? What would it cost for this type of alarm? The whole system is installed I just need a reset and possibly new PIR's? Thanks all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will still need the services of an engineer to reset the panel. Have you moved into a property with the alarm already in? It is very unlikely that //.National Installer.// would have installed pet-immune detectors, so, no, the existing ones can't be adapted to ignore pets. How many cats do you have? Pet-immune detectors will only ignore animals up to a certain size, and also the detectors can't face staircases, so you may require some re-wiring. Ideally you should take out a maintenance contract so that your system is serviced annually, and should anything go wrong you will have peace of mind that an engineer will attend within a short time frame. You should call a local installer to get a quote. Furthermore, in order to reduce the risk of false alarms it would be better to consider not allowing your pets free roam of the house, and not change all the detectors to pet-immune. Not ideal I am sure you think, but more secure. Also, if the system was monitored before, and not now, you may not have an external siren, which if you have a bells only system is not ideal, cos no one will know the alarm is sounding, apart from your cats of course.
