Tells the world that this "system is a confirmed system". Also it looks ****. I remember years ago going for an interview at Secom. I thought the firm i worked for were behind the times but couldn't believe how old skoll Secom appeared to be. Nice relaxed attitude though and i image a decent employer.

We used to install a strobe or led on a p.t.s to inform the customer if the system had gone confirmed. The theory being that the when the customer/keyholder was first contacted the system may of been unconfirmed and on route to the premises the system may go confirmed without the customer knowing. Customer arrives on site sees the confirmed indicator and makes their choice whether to enter the premises or not or wait for Plod. However since everybody now has a mobile phone and can be contacted at anytime a confirmed indicator is very rarely installed.

After they have complained about the fan noise at night they will complain about the cobwebs. You're on a hiding to nothing mate with residential cctv. How did you get on?

Does the airing cupboard back onto a bedroom? They'll be complaining about the fan noise next.

I'd stick well clear of Texecom if i were you mate. Pyronix Euro 46 would be my choice every day of the week. Texecom Premier may be a very good panel if you use them regular but for someone who does not they can be a very frustrating piece of kit. I've been installing various panels for nearly 20 years but yesterday afternoon i had the bad luck of programming a Texecom from scratch. It's not a panel we support as a rule and we only have a few on contract and just my luck one would need replacing on a Friday afternoon. Some of the menus are so basic they still use asterisk and letters to resemble options. Also they are over complicated with too many options. Yesterday whilst trying to disable an ATS alert i found it was possible to disable the keypad from displaying the actual alert but just to display that there was a system alert but not which actual alert! Maybe useful in high security premises but not 99% of installs. Stick to a Pyronix Euro and you cannot go wrong imo.

Just buy one and play around with it.

Maybe one or two but when all cables come back to the end station/expander area and there are 40 odd the drill wins imo

I don't think that is true. Not mention the amount of effort you save using a drill makes it the first choice for me. You've spoken like a true office boy there Mr James.

Zone omit not normally allowed due to insurance policy.

Name and shame my friend :-)

My Hikvision gmail stopped working last week but i have since found this solution that works: change smtp.gmail.com to the corresponding IP address (74.125.68.108) and the test email works 74.125.68.109 also works apparently.

With plug and play cameras and apps monitoring your intruder who needs a pro? Only fire left for the pro and mr sparky likes doing those.

Nice floor plan. Use software for it?

That is a great explanation. Cheers. shame the blog is not updated.

Working next to a pot hole is working at height.

Do i know you guys?

Triangle? maybe.

Strobe?

I'd try and get into a company called 4i Security. They will be the next market leaders in this industry and are technically so far advance of the other firms that they do not even install keypads! You wont go wrong with them mate.

What's your current job?

Depends on the security level required and the risk assessment.

Good luck Joe :'>
