Hi all, I'm currently consulting for a client with 5 small satellite offices across the region. They are struggling with the manual overhead of updating user permissions at each site. Every time they hire someone new or a staff member leaves, someone has to VNC into local servers or, worse, travel to the site to update the standalone controllers. They are asking about moving to a Centralized Cloud-based system, but their IT security lead is worried about "real-time visibility" and what happens if the local internet goes down. For those of you managing multi-site installs, are you seeing a major shift toward Cloud centralization lately? How do you sell the 'Real-Time' benefit to the IT guys without triggering their fears about network reliability and data privacy? Is the reduction in truck rolls worth the potential security trade-offs in your experience?

by me but gone

Tagging it on this topic... Maybe a mod could put it the correct topic ? Fitted internally 😁

You can buy a 3rd party one or generic one which has the pin end loose for the panel end F22art or whatever the lead is detected as in windows ?

Thanks James....I just did some research and you are right, there is a 12v pin. Im just after the TX RX and Gnd (Not the 12v)so hopefully shall be good.....

they may look identical but the pin layout may be different check this first, o think there is power on the port

Your our experiment then , try it Although I thought that lead wouldn't work on different panels

Thank Al-Yeti for response. I had a spare RSS Galaxy lead kicking around and wanted to utilise it to suit. The com port connectors are identical. just needed to check if it was do able...

Is it worth it? If maybe your enthusiastic maybe, but easier to buy one Althought @Galaxy Guy probably has made loads of different types

Hi Guys. Has anyone tried to make the serial Com 1 Lead on the Premier Panel to connect from panel to usb port? I take it that this will be a normal serial RS232 to USB? Thanks in advance

I take it its all ok now.

Nice.....................

That must be the new security feature stopping anyone from tampering with the panel....

Lol

You confirm the "many worlds theory" :)

Posted a picture from Croydon earlier in the year of relay able box on rear of property same as the above Anyway my contact for the job was the son of an alarm company owner in Essex... For a Mo I thought the late firme member Arfur as it was same town he lived in !

I was at junior school, looking back it was probably happiest I ever was, loads of mates, playing every sport going (badly), a gang of lasses fighting over me, tea on the table by my mother & an endless summer where I'd make @al-yeti look like an albino... :)

Ive only seen one other system that used EOL batteries, it was a Securicor Granley system, not sure I remember the model number, may have been a TM14 or TM15 and I think it was a 4 zone system. Long time ago now 1988 and it was an old obsolete model then.

Cool you got the key

Acquired this recently; thought I'd do a post for anyone interested. This is a very old Auto Call alarm system dating back to 1959. The control panel is what's known as a G Type. Designed by a guy called Ted Gant hence the name of the panel. Fitted by Auto Call and also Ideal Fire and Burglary. The system consists of a large panel box that houses 4 flag cell batteries and a set of control relays. Then theres a smaller hinged box known as the control panel thats got a red lamp, three position wafer switch, and keyswitch mounted to the front. Then theres the bell box which housed a gent bell and occasionally had a tamper loop around the cover. And finally a small wooden box which contained a set of flag cells connected at the end of the alarm zone/circuit. Some systems had an auto dialler fitted top which would send a pre recorded message to a police via a vinyl record.

That's the other yeti with different parcels This yeti got a really fast one

old pictures missing ? I only remember Rocky v Apollo Creed, in a parallel universe the other al-yeti got his really fast parcel really slow ?

Since upgrade my sw delivery was really fast So must be good upgrade 😜

Would welcome some feedback on the upgrade. those that know its rocky vs centos, but im bound to like cos of time spent.
