  1. Tamper is a 24 hour circuit designed to let you know if someone is tampering with the alarm. If a cable is damaged, the bell is damaged, detectors or door contacts are damaged the alarm will go off. When you say its going off does it stop on its own accord or do you have to enter your code to stop the noise?
  2. No you are correct
  3. Problem is all the proper companies in the BN7 area are busy as, we keep putting our prices up and still getting more acceptances than we can deal with. Im booked up till December now. OP James was referring to an alarm panel not landlines, analogue landlines will be obsolete by 2025 and so the choices are IP signaling and GSM. But as James says using signaling without a control panel though in theory will work its not a sensible way to go about it.
  4. Soak test is used for testing a circuit, for example a detector activates and you see no environmental reasons for the activation, you can put the circuit on soak. It will log activations but it wont alarm. So when you return check the log if it hasnt activated you can take it off soak
  5. Disconnect batteries move keypad nearer the panel reconnect batteries
  6. Its the same as the rest of the wireless kit "Developed by our in-house R&D team, the detector has exceptional RF range allowing it to be positioned in the trickiest of locations" https://www.hkcsecurity.com/Other/hkcsecurityCOM/Public Downloads/Ireland/Intrusion - Wireless/RF-PIR-DT.pdf
  7. If you have neither then its probably not worth taking over
  8. There are no rules on NVM locking its down to personal preference.
  9. Not if he was able to set it afterwards. OP You could try stretching the spring a little see if that fixes it, if it doesnt the switch is knackered
  10. I have a garage which although wireless isnt keyless, its also alarmed. My key never leaves my pocket which means its not that close to the outside world, Ive seen the vids. My worry is going on holiday and parking it at the hotel, Ive been mostly lucky with my hotel rooms so far though high enough to be out of reach, but still able to see the carpark from the room. The fezza isnt keyless but it isnt that practical for anything other than a weekend away
  11. HKC have a wireless Dualtech now its much better for hostile environments like sheds and garages
  12. Tamper means exactly that the lid has come off something, or if hwired the cable may be damaged hkc will normally verbally tell you the fault "tamper zone 3"
  13. Since the last post was Dec 2020 your a bit late to the party
  14. Is that what you have been quoted or are you guessing? It sound like your trying to tow a jumbo with a mini, it wont do the job you need it to do but it makes a lot of noise trying
  15. different panel the rest stays, once you have found the cause to the false alarms
  16. Not sure what you're asking but if you want a solution you can disarm remotely by an app you need a newer panel
  17. I dont think anyone on here is brave enough to use Lightsys
  18. Great for hiding the recorder though, screw it up in the ceiling of a cupboard, that will feck the service engineer LOL
  19. Actually they look quite useful, well done! what sort of price would you retail them at?
  20. Range is the biggest downfall of a 360 they dont see as far as a wall mounted detector. They are really only meant for applications where there are a lot of obstructions like a gangway in a warehouse, or arcades where there are lots of arcade machines that obstruct the view of a normal detector. Plus the PIR detects much better when you walk across its field of view, which is why most detectors are placed in corners rather than the middle of a room. Give me a decent Optex quad any day
  21. Hard to answer a question like that over the internet, have you got a multi meter?
