  1. alarm movement detectors are to detect the infra energy of an intruder (ideally human sized moving across a room) they may see flying bricks, house plants falling over, blinds moving but is not really their purpose. A breakglass detector should detect the sound of breaking glass depending on its positioning & type of glass in the pane. They also may detector other sounds like key being jangled or bottles being broken on the street If you want to protect glass buy a shutter
  2. I'm saying you failed to select a competent service provider
  3. Ex Construction Engineer, Banker, software eng.... blah blah blah But inexperienced in the field of "alarm monkeying" Even with your 2 degrees you made the mistake of employing a "prick end" to "bell up" your cafe... I suspect you didn't use a proper co. The basic function of the alarm movement detector is to detect an intruder within the "protected premise" vandalism of the brick coming though the window isn't an intruder

    Its very unlikely the alarm is doing something to trigger the occupancy sensor. Mask your sensor(s) over with electrical tape, open door external *IF* there's a weird interconnection between the systems your lights will come on. I assume opening the door is causing something to move within the area of the occupancy sensors eg- blinds, house plants or some weird reflection on the glass of the opening door reflecting onto the glass of another building into the room with the occupancy sensors Reducing the sensitivity of your occupancy sensor(s), is where I would start.

    What's your relationship in this ? Your alarm, your electrics or your building ?

    I'd guess the occupancy sensor is on a suspended ceiling & when the door is opened the tile is moving enough to put the lights ons.... What is the "door alarm sensor" - just a contact ?
  9. Read the email & then looked up from the desk at the premier elite on the wall... & thought balls, my system works
  10. You have one on the bench to play with ? Or just the "live site" with the non compliance ?
  11. Lightsys2 ? Why on earth did you spec that..... I assume it will it do an exit terminate ? (adding a button is probally less hassle than reading the book?)
  12. ita the alloy which is appearing to rot away much quicker than in the past ?
  13. Had it 7yrs or so, I recall £250ish but may be wrong ? Its POE on 24 ports, I recently bought an unmanaged 24 port TP-Link POE switch for £185 inc vat for a job & recall expecting the stuff to be way cheaper
  14. I really like controls with a castle heritage, but there a great commercial success rather than best product.
  15. same thing I assume the range has pot on it? Adjusting pot min to max a dozen times will probably see it right ?
  16. Think we've done this before, Iphone 6 ipad mini (older one) thinkpad (dl540 ?)
  17. I don't really understand it, but having a play Switch is old Procurve 2626,
  18. I was expecting TCP, but saw nothing
  19. I was bored the other day & was messing at work, using Wireshark I can see everything on my network sending packets of data (whatever) as expected. Our alarm signals via a TCD,oddly I can't see any data connected to its IP ? I can see data when I ping..... Being just a simple alarm monkey... can anyone explains whats happening ?
  20. kettle...
  21. Adjust watch by 20 yrs & welcome to the alarm trade, they've probably not printed you email out yet...
  22. optex beams & sensors... I don't like outside detection,
