But dont just take our word for it google Hikvision bullet the only ones less than £100 are analogue. And vari-focals are considerably more by the time you have added power supplies, NVR, HDD, Monitor, cable and sundries you will be well over your budget.
Ebay sell fake Hiks but you get what you pay for
Anyone else trying the technical preview?
I downloaded it to a laptop tried it out for a while, it seems very stable so I am now using it on my new machine. Far better than Win 8 and cleaner than win 7
I like it a lot, its free and the links below

global tamper is wired in series, i.e if you use yellow and blue for each tamper circuit, join the blue of zone 1 to the yellow of zone 2, then the blue of zone 2 to the yellow of zone 3, and so on you end up with th yellow of zone 1, and the blue of you last zone, which you put in the tamper terminals
Hi Dawn
Its not quite as simple as someone telling you how to do it, that particular panel can be wired a couple ways. Then you would also need to know what colours were used.
Is the original contact still attached to the wire if so take a picture and upload it. If not I would suggest calling the installer, because although its not impossible to tell you how to do it remotely it could get messy
Spot on he came down sorted it and he has a copy of the udl so when we have to make further changes he can send us a CPU we send him the old one back. I forgot to thank you for him Steve, so thank you very much
Why? Jeff has all hs round pegs in round holes which is exactly what I am saying
Tell me about it I had to call ADT the other day about a Fire alarm, I think I spoke to everyone who works there apart from the person I needed to. Then they sent out an intruder alarm engineer to the site a week later (I never asked for an engineer just for a price for a Fire engineer) I am sure its that much harder when you're that much bigger but God knows how customers get on with getting anything done.
Hmm is that not what the manufacturers tech support is for? Engineers shouldnt be wasting managers time with technical questions, tech support is free. If there is a problem with getting hold of TS then call another engineer.
Organisation skills are probably a little higher priority than technical skills when it comes to managing, Some engineers can make good service managers, some are just not organised enough, Ive even known them to try to cover jobs by doing them themselves. I think having a manager that cant do cover the jobs himself is a good thing, he should be spending more time managing and less time out of the office.
I came across something similar to that. looking for a fault, I followed a cabled to a hole in the floor there was another cable coming up from the same hole going another direction. I assumed that the cable went under the floor and back to the panel. No, five meters of cable went into the hole and came back out again then carried on around the the carpet threshold back to the panel. I spent ages looking for the other end before I decided to pull on the cable. The fault was under the floor a mouse had chewed the cable
You cant get decent western food, even the major western restaurants like McD and KFC is ****. The decent Chinese restaurants are very nice but there is only so much Chinese food you can eat. Pizza hut and Starbucks are the only decent western food outlets I can find, followed by subways but I wouldnt want to eat Chinese subway more than once in a week. Everything over there seems like it is cooked in the same oil which has a nasty aftertaste.
Oh and learn how to use chop sticks or pizza hut is your only place to eat, the better Chinese places only have chop sticks
Lots of Chinese co's selling AHD dvr its another name for HDSI
Personally I prefer IP
He is brave BTW going for a month I would get solidly bored after two weeks I only go for a week to ten days at a time
Hmm not sure if thats how I would do it.
First off how would the customer know what he wants? Usually I start of by asking the purpose of the CCTV and then telling the customer what they should have not the other way around. After all Im supposed to be the expert not the customer. I do go to some surveys and customers have an idea of what they want, usually I discover what they want is not what they can afford or has yet to be invented LOL.
Much as I wouldnt want to tell you how to suck eggs you could simplify what you need by asking:
1 Purpose (This tells you what sort of spec they need)
2 Budget (This tells you what sort of spec they can afford) You could include lease purchase in this discussion
3 Is the CCTV going to be constantly monitored or controlled by a guard ect (If the answer to that one is no, there is no point to PTZ cameras)
After you have worked out the above all you need is a spec sheet on a Driod, The customer is not gonna know what type of lense or cable you need to work that one out.
System Q (theres a clue in the topic title) Imran, my price is circa £100.00
