this sorta thing ?

nowt, I used to do this & the other building opposite for the landlord. The one is the pic is a 1st & 2nd floor HMO, Shop & the building on the corner is a Pizza shop I'd priced to replace a Newlec with a Kentec panel + add 2 repeaters some years ago.. he told me how much he 'd been quoted & asked me to match it... It was something laughable The other premises has is similar, 2 shops + HMO. Haes controls which I rather liked.

i think they broke the budget & went with doubled side tape ? the good stuff to put no. plates on

Does the plug top mean it needs pat testing too ?

Iirc the mcp ain't Apollo ? But the heads are ?

zone invert ? doing a full default will prove if you've mong'd the programming ? remove all the wiring & place back one circuit at time...

Zone disable suite ?

cool, usual thing of cable, device or controls if the cable is laid under the boards in a manner its trapped or damaged by a pipe, walking around on the floor above it may send the alarm batshit, something drawing lots of current, eg too much stuff on small controls may send the alarm batshit something odd is happening , check all the fuses are the correct rating eg- some mong may have a 5amp fuse where a 1amp belongs & when it draws too much current it batshits the alarm & does not blown the fuse with the tamper tied down gently press parts of the endstation pcb to see if it goes batshit check both continuity of all the all cables & then take them apart & check there is no shorts on every pair ? or change you mobile no. & find a new friend with a working alarm ?

are you an alarm man or diy'er ?

cables under carpets ?

default & reprogram, if it does it again , replace controls after check the cables.... is this just a system just a single EWD, 1 keypad, 1 speaker & a handfull of pir ?

Outside box ringing ? or something different ?

With only one arm & one leg, he'd have a blue badge so he could park his Citroen on a double yellow line ?

for you €280 ?

I've been waiting with baited breath for the results....

Euro 280...

lots of video's... however I'm pretty sure he's never worked at a proper alarm co.

are you a slow reader ? what plonkers have you been talking too ? phone lines are finished for alarm signaling.... you need to put your hand in your pocket & buy a proper alarm from a proper alarm company with proper signaling

soak test - an intruder alarm zone will not generate an alarm for the duration of the soak test just log' display it as a fault eg- you've a warehouse with DT900 it false alarms... you've checked the cables & the voltages blah, blah.... you reckon it might be the detector or it might be the vermin you pop a new detector on & place it on 14 day soak test, if does not FA in the next 14 days it becomes a intruder zone on the system again with no more action to take if it fails the soak test "soak failure" will be on the display & when the alarm FA'd in the middle of the night nobody got called out...

Cheap enough to swap a PCB if you want to support yet another platform ?

Business is business, if the subscriber is unhappy or has a better offer, cheerio & good luck to them its up to the incoming co. to do their homework, I'd say its unethical to be asking for more £ from the subscriber if you need to replace a locked pcb ? does a "locked product" stop you taking it over...

Should the equipment be the subscribers property & they choose to move to another co. who is incapable of doing the job without asking for me to hold their hand... They can send me the pcb & I will restore it to the manufactured defaults ?

if you have a job for all the radio tat.... a P48-Live is "free" panel for a little wired system in an outbuilding ?

assuming both out building have power, 2 self contained systems....

I believe the VAT man makes a better profit than I & he's doesn't even foot the ladders
