The AI is finding the footage from an instagram picture taken near the cctv camera. It goes to show how very intelligent cameras are that it can identify someone from their photo on a webpage

Best is not easy to install but not available to non trade anyway. Easiest for you would be ION as its what you are used to. The battery voltage is no indication of its health, a fecked battery will still read 13v the panel has been pushing 13v through it, its not like your torch battery dropping volts as it gets used, you need to load test it too find out if its any good. If its older than 4 years old then you should replace it. If its several years older then it will fail a load test for sure, and that may well be the cause of your bus problem

Regularly serviced? battery replaced every 4 years. Could be several reasons for the panel to default, it was an old panel in 2015 its ancient compared todays panels.

I sort of thought the same but then I thought, how is a burglar going to put it in engineer mode first, engineers code wont disarm the system if its armed, and if it did why would they be bothered about it not disabling the sound. If it were an inside job why remove the sa? It wouldnt make it look any less of an inside job.

Basic two way, send a signal to say its being tampered much like a detector. Not intelligent two way in the respect it knows its in engineer.

Agility is one way wireless, surely two way coms would be required for a panel to tell a bell its in engineer. In the same way it would tell detectors its armed. Im not saying your wrong, but why would manufacturers make a wireless system that disables the bell in engineers and not make a hard wired one that does the same. After all you only need 5 of a 6 core cable to wire an sas so you have a spare if you only use 6 core. Not that I would use it though its sound too much of a risk. Very few would do it though, too much faff and another thing that could go wrong, with serious consequences, nobody wants a failed to operate on their hands.

No engineers mode wont stop it from sounding, it will still sound when you open the box. Engineers are fairly quick to stop it sounding once its open, and once the battery is disconnected its silent, they can then move the dip switch to 5 sec put the new battery on the sounder will sound for 5 secs they then move the dip back to 20 mins. Nobody can disable the external sounder from sounding without opening it first, unless the battery is already flat, or the sounder is faulty

Next week Ive decided to go to work each day in a different bread related fancy dress.....roll on Monday.

I nearly got myself out of a ticket by telling the Police woman she looked king stunning.......and then I cocked it up by saying "and thats not the drink talking"

QFA Risco is not a great brand but compared to the tat being marketed on Amazon and Ebay, its miles ahead

The agility is a diy system? Not even engineers can get around a bell tamper, the bell is made so that it cannot be compromised without bringing attention to itself. The problem with not having a service contract is you have no one to call at silly o clock in the morning, when the sounders going and the panel is not responding

Put it in engineers and then get the ladders out, and put your ear defenders on remove bell and dis the battery. this will be noisy and the strobe has high volts. Then down power the panel and remove the rest

The battery did well for 9 years, the life expectancy is 4 years, if the battery was defective it would damage the charging circuit, the only way you will find out if thats happened would be your next power cut. I would be very surprised if a storm caused the RCD to trip RCD stands for residual current device and as the name suggest its monitoring the residual current on a circuit, even if the earth was locally hit by lighting its unlikely to change the residual current on just one circuit.

Depending on if the system is regularly serviced, the battery should last around 12 hours without mains and should recharge within 24 hours. But my concern would not be the alarm, it would be the RCD tripping especially when no-one is home to switch stuff on and off, what else is on the circuit ? Did you have a look around the house for small fires?

You know I moved recently, well the vendor tried selling me the carpet, I told him he would be doing me a favor if he took it as it will save me on skips. It was still here when I moved in and is slowly being ripped out

Along with the light bulbs and switch's

Makes a change from someone asking why their sounder sounds when theres a power cut. When you say it doesnt sound on part set, how are you testing it? If you are prt setting the alarm and then coming into the entry route it wont sound. If you set it then go into a room that is not on entry exit route then I would say it should sound. Obvs if you start the entry procedure it wont. get someone to wait in the lounge part set the alarm then get them to move

Ive been fitting flushed in led light strips in the master bedroom ensuite

He could have sold the contracts instead of just shutting down

Did you not have a hard wired system before? I would have used the existing cables and replaced the hard wired system personally

He did a few jobs for me down Weston Super Mare way but he was too busy last time I asked him

When the doorbell first came out I tried one and they are nothing like the advert would have you believe, they didnt even work that well locally. Since then I tried cheapo Chinese doorbell 7 out of 10, Hik 4 out 10, Daha 6 out of 10., Ring I could only give 4 out of 10. When people ask me why I always quote hardwired if I can, my usual answer is additional annual fees due to batteries, but I will be adding you cant jam hard wired

Can you include the bonus ball this time !?

You can, but that doesnt mean you should, there could be all sort's of easter eggs hidden in the incumbents programming just waiting to bite you in the ass. From rogue user codes to zones put on double knock or areas that are not part of the main system. If your not programming it yourself how do you know that its programmed as it should be
