  1. Crumbs I wouldnt want that as internal sounder, Smoke cloak is the thing to use if you really want to never get burgled
  2. That's right no noticeable difference, If you want something deafening loud then use an internal sounder as well as the speaker. The speaker is really there for entry exit noise, chime and warning noises, depending on the panel some will make the internal alarm sound but not to the extent of making your ears bleed
  3. They are all the same thing not much that can go wrong with them, pick the one you like the look of, if choice is your thing, many dont bother choosing and ask for the cheapest. Welcome to the 4rum btw

    As a beginner you need to understand that this is a professional security forum, as such posting engineering codes in the public area or any other area for that matter is not permitted, why I hear you ask? Well when you are supplying security on a professional basis you leave yourself wide open if someone posts your engineering codes for all to view on a public website. Your customers would not like it if someone posted your engineer codes, and its the same for anyone else. Its not done. Any professional security installer would not need to ask for other companies engineers code, as any professional company would default the system and re program it, it is the only way you know that the system is programmed correctly. Only lazy unprofessional numpties ask for other companies engineer codes, try and remember that and maybe you will get past the beginner stage.
  5. Radio 4 works everywhere so ho cares!

    Do you have to defrost it before you power it up?

    Ive heard if you leave the PCB in the freezer overnight it defaults to 1234
  10. PS use a free email addy not your company one, they are so thick they dont notice, and they do so many scams they cant remember who they emailed anyway.
  11. I like to play games with these scammers. Give him a price take the cc number, and then tell him it was declined, keep doing this until he finally gives up. My highest score so far is 32 cc numbers on the same transaction.

    Hi and Welcome

    Hi
  14. Caveo Some of the members have raised concerns that you are advertising that you install Fire, yet you clearly struggle to understand the basics of a multimeter. Did you know should you install a Fire system that fails to operate and someone dies as a consequence you will be up for manslaughter? This would include not installing to the requirements of the FRA, i.e. wrongly placed detectors, cable not adequately protected or fixed, not installed to the correct grading, just to name a few. There was a guy last year got ten years for exactly that, Fire alarms have strict rules and guidelines and even those who are experienced and familiar with BS5839 will not take any risks and will refer to the standard regularly
  15. Well....you say that but I would beg to differ
  16. Everyone thinks that DT's are better and they are in the right environment, which is usually a more hostile environment than a house. I would use quads every-time over DT's in a domestic environment. Apart from in the garage, even then depending on the environment of the garage, you could sleep in mine on a cold winters day no problem so a quad is fine.
  17. Why dueltec Imran??
  18. I think you really need to try and find a basic electronics course at you local college, or a night class. Using a multimeter is the most basic elements of this industry and if you dont know how to use one, and clearly you do not, you should not be doing any work at all in this industry. Not understanding how to take basic measurements in this industry is like wondering around a crowded tube station blindfolded, your gonna bump into something sooner or later, lets hope its not a tube train. Honestly I wouldnt employ a trainee that doesnt have the basics, you would not pass our interview exam. I am giving advice here not taking the P, get on a basic electronic course once you understand the fundamentals you will have a much better understanding of whats going on. But asking us to teach you the basics is asking for trouble, because someone will rip the pss
  19. We use Ipads but there are no rules to say you have to, there are many of our customers that dont have a p.c. so we cant email them a copy if we use the ipad, so we have to do it the old fashioned way some of the time anyway. The person I use has developed the Ipad jobsheets specifically for us, and he has done some more tailored jobsheets for other companies, I think he charged about £600.00 for the initial program and then there is an ongoing charge for upgrades and web charges. If I want something added or changed he doesnt charge any extra though.
  20. May as well go to work with a blindfold on if you dont have a meter in your hand. The amount of times Ive asked engineers what the voltage is, or what current is it drawing, and they havent looked!
  21. We gave you the right answer in the first post, but because it was the answer you didnt want to hear you get upset, and say we are wrong not to help? A tx'er is a transmitter.
  22. Which bit doesnt make sense the bit where you think that you can buy any old txer that will disarm your security system, or the bit where I am telling you they will be secure?
  23. I would think you need the real ones they would be rolling code and pass-worded so they cant be copied
  24. Id still swerve the G3 though
  25. Really you need advice from an engineer on that. I havent installed a door contact for about 15 years, I employ a bunch of engineers that do that sort of thing. I am sure there will be one along sooner or later I cant believe I am the only one thats commented so far
