  9. Years ago back when I was an engineer we used to keyhold we used to look over wiston house in cissbury http://www.wistonhouse.co.uk/the-house/history/ I have no idea if it is haunted or not but it is a very old building with lots of secret passages and what nots, and I have heard rumours of all sorts going on its quite close to cissbury ring where the devil worshippers hang out. Anyway I got called out there one wet and stormy night, you know the ones claps of thunder and lighting ect. Anyway I arrive on site one minute to midnight as I am driving up I could see a light on on the top floor, so I am thinking someones on site already. So i get out of the van switch the alarm off and check out the log, alarm was set at 17.00 then nothing till 23.00 when the alarm activates on the top floor landing, and nowhere else, off I go expecting to find someone in the building still working (only the landing on the top floor had detection) get up stairs check all the rooms and I found no one. So I inspect the detector for signs of spiders and the usual environmental checks nothing, cant see any reason for activation. I would normally change the detector at this point but the house was creeping me out a little lots of creaking noises along with thunder and lighting so i decided to isolate the detector (It was trap detection you couldnt break in on the top floor even with a helicopter) switched the lights off, went downstairs, reset the alarm, isolated the zone, set the alarm, got in my van wrote the job sheet went to the house and posted the top copy of the jobsheet through the letterbox walked back to my van and something made me look up, and the top floor light was on again. Now I know I had switched it off and it was not on when I originally returned to the van, I know there was no one in the building I checked every room on the top floor and they could not of come downstairs without triggering another detector or passing me on the stairs there are no secret passages on the top floor. I thought about going back to switch it off for about a second whilst I was running to the van. When we went back to change the detector I spoke to the caretaker and he said that sort of thing is always happening I dont believe in this sort of stuff but at the time this did creep me.
  10. Brilliant I wont have to leave at six in the morning to get there if I fancy going
  11. Like
  12. Spot on I spent 8 years earning less than half I was earning when I left my job to do it and I was paying my engineers twice what i was earning. I still do 9 or 10 hours a day but the moneys much better this year
  13. Its because it gave him an excuse to do a couple of lines
  14. I remember those Dave, Ive seen much older detection including flushed in ultra sonics in a Brighton seafront house owned by Hancock's (Half Hour) Brother But I remember queing up in local Police stations to put alarm systems on test, and a reset was putting a needle on the begining of a record, or reseting an eight track
  15. I have it sorted already thanks
  16. Three more doors and a reader to arm/disarm alarm system (Not used by OAP's if the alarm is set the OAP's fobs wont work
  17. I have given that some thought, the customer has a keypad on the rear door ATM so when they phone him because they cant get in he gives them a code then changes the code the next day, the app wouldnt cost that much a dialer would The manager is not an OAP its the old dears that use the club for knitting club or whatever OAP's do that forget their fobs. They were constantly phoning him to come and let them in because they forgot or lost the key, hence why they have access control. Now they forget/lose the fobs he can switch the fobs off when they lose them. A phone app to remotely open the door would be usefull.
  18. I have a little oap club that would use that app, the daft old dears keep leaving their fobs at home and the manager has to come down to let them in.
  19. I was hoping that was a driod or iphone app
  20. You don't need to log into the vshell to remove the recordings it can be done from the tool bar, under the tab video database To get into the Vshell area, It should be admin no caps vshell no caps. But you only need this area to set up the LAN and correct the clock etc The Leviathan uses embedded xp and only the right software will work with those cards, geovision and other software simply wont work.
  21. I thought there was a new inspectorate for a minute and nobody had thought to tell me, I feel a right plum now I actually googled it
  22. Whats a macias gold company?
  23. Hi Weeze A tamper fault is a 24hr circuit that monitors (as the name suggests) anyone tampering with the detectors/ bell/control unit. Unfortunately, the concept is fairly basic and only gives one indication for any one of the tamper circuits, this means to find out what is causing it you really need a multimeter and the ability to use it, though if its going externally as well as indoors there is a high possibility the fault is with the sounder, or the cable to it If you press prog and enter your code this may stop it Alarm systems need regular servicing to stop this sort of thing happening
  24. Hi welcome to the forum Unfortunately the manual was emailed back in 2003 and that particular member is no longer around, you maybe lucky if another member has a user manual
