Hi

Hi Trevor Door contacts normally have a hard wired tamper not a switch so if the tamper fault is till there its one of three things, the decorator has pulled a wire off when he removed it, he has shorted a wire when he put it back, he has cut a wire somewhere else. It may also be a detector thats causing the tamper and not the contact. I would recommend you call any local installer and get them round to service the system once the decorators have finished

I have nothing against ADT, however, a local would just quote a GSM or Wifi solution for a lot less than £800, now ADT may also be a lot less than £800 but engineer should have called the office and quoted the correct price. At the end of the day its about giving the customer the right information so they can make the right decision

All app systems work via a cloud therefore there is a monthly or annual fee but not necessarily to an arc. The Ismart is not graded therefore none of us would install one and wouldnt know if its any good or not. Personally I would use a company that makes phones for my phone and a company that makes alarms for my alarm.

The lightsys is hybrid so wired and wireless, The HKC panel also has an App no CCTV yet but they are working on it, Texecom has an App and again no CCTV, Scantronic ION have a web browser. We have a demo Risco Lightsys set up in our office the Risco App works really well very quick to report alarms, and it sends pictures too. I have the HKC panel at home also using the App and that works very well too. If I had to choose it would most likely be the HKC its just better built kit than the Risco stuff. But on price the Risco stuff wins hands down, upto 50% cheaper in some cases.

Bonjour! and Welcome

Its still in engineer so wont do anything

Its a belkin so probably all ports are open

Did the ip range change? for example 192.168.2.1 to 192.168.0.1 if so the panel probably needs the power recycling as the panel is still trying to connect to the old ip. If the ip range is the same then my advise would be call your installer you should probably do this anyway

Pleased to see you are giving as good as you get there. As for the fault I have never known any addressable fire panel do that with no faults but I cant see how you have it wired or what its wired too. I would test that it works ok firstly then secondly look to see which relay is clicking if it has one Im not familiar with Gent, there a closed protocol system.

Its funny that we're talking about VHS and Betamax as theyre both obsolete now. I still think IP is the way forward

wat he sed?^^^

op is based in Rotherham

Two weeks to six months take a wild guess! Anyway looking at your picture you dont look old enough to be employed just yet

Dont be silly Steve why would he be comfortable with a grade one pile of crup

Back on topic, pick the panel you are most comfortable with and stick to it, and stop fitting those awful Prime system

Mega pixel set up correctly with HLC ect will do it second picture is at night

You should have a monitor connected to the NVR, like all electronic equipment it goes wrong occasionally so the monitor is the best/easiest way you can tell if its on and working properly. 5 Days using Motion detect depending on how much motion seen on the camera 2TB/3TB HDD I would recommend the Western Digital purple range. If you go down the the IP route you could use a POE switch, a decent one would set you back £80.00. You then have to decide on which NVR and which cameras. I rate the Hikvision and Dahua Cameras I wouldnt buy them from Ebay the Chinese are very good at copying cameras and unless you know what you're buying and who from you can easily be burned, around £140.00 per cam from a reputable retailer is about right. Then you just have to choose a NVR. I have heard some great things about the Hikvision NVR. I have my own Hybrid DVR/NVR so dont use any branded recorders (I do use budget ones on occasion horses for courses) The above will break your budget The alternative recomendation is Security Warehouse HDSDI kit this would come in under budget All CCTV has smartphone facilities nowadays

They can do but you would need POE Power Over Ethernet cameras and then you need power over Ethernet power supplies

£140 x 4 = £560 plus NVR £300 =£860 already £60 over your budget, not inc monitor, psu's, cable, switch, VAT etc You could consider HDSDI, Security Warehouse have a very good budget HDSDI equivalent to 2mp system which would come in under your budget just
