  1. I had a brand new 6/14 on the shelf until we move September when I threw it in the scrap. Along with a brand new Bosh/Euro panel a prosys, and loads of other stuff, I had to be ruthless. Shame really there was some nice gear but I couldnt warranty it and it would be more trouble than its worth selling it cheap. Ebay is just a ball ache, so scrap man it was
  2. It may have been a route to the UK intruder market, the only thing they seem to do now intruder wise is the Blueline.
  3. IIRC Bosch took over about the same time as DD243 came about 2010 ish. Bosch could have done so much more with DA I was surprised when they took the route of Castle, it must have hit their profit margin, not only paying Castle for a rebadged product but developing their own keypad to work with it
  4. It was how Da instructed us to get around the problem, it may not have been power it may have been data or something it was 7 years ago now.
  5. I am 99% sure its not programmable I got a point on a NSI inspection in 2010 because you could still disarm the system with the code. We had to fit a relay to the open and close output to down power the keypad whilst set to get around it.
  6. It cannot be de programmed as it was an aftermarket add on just de wire the receiver from the keyswitch input.
  7. Then it would be an after market fob, there will be a separate receiver wired into the keyswitch input
  8. I am fairly certain there wasnt a fob for the 6/14
  9. Just use camo cam they re battery operated and take pictures rather than a video and save it to an SD card
  10. Hi and welcome
  11. What FPS are the cameras set at and what is the expected FPS at the Adpro? Is this a dedicated network or is it part of an existing Lan?
  12. hi and welcome
  13. Found an axe in a funeral parlour whilst running cables, it conjured up plenty of thoughts about rigamortis ect. I asked what they used it for. It turns out that they had a body shipped back from South Africa, and because of strict laws on flying a dead body it had to be in a sealed zinc coffin, when it arrived they could not see a way of opening it other than using an axe. Apparently that was the worst smelling jobs they had ever had.
  14. A mate of mine lives central Brighton, he works away a lot not at home and his wife doesnt sleep that well when he is away. At 3 am one night his wife was awoken by the sounds of a girl screaming and she goes down stairs to investigate. She catch's a guy trying to force a girl into the basement area of her house and when she challenges him he runs off. The Police are called and the poor girl is brought indoors. The guy had attempted to rape her but thankfully it was prevented by my mates wife. The Police arrive and take details but seem really uninterested, so much so that they did not even take a statement from my mates wife. It was almost as if they blamed the girl for being out at 3am. They seemed to know who the guy was from the description. They take away some of the girls cloths removed by the guy that they found in the basement the including girls shoes which they put in evidence bags, saying there could be DNA. My mates wife stayed in touch with the girl,so she knows that nothing was heard from the Police at all for about three months until they called the girl to ask her to come and collect her stuff. When the girl turns up at the Police station it turns out that the guys hat was amongst the stuff they had taken from the basement. The Police had not even looked at the evidence they had collected!
  15. Hi and welcome Please familiarise yourself with the forum rules before posting http://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/guidelines/
  16. Do you not remember the conversation we had a couple of weeks ago? You can buy HKC on Ebay but only the Irish version, or second hand stuff. HKC wont support DIY, and setting up app is only available to customers with a trade set up login on the secure website.
  17. Agilty has the best app, but sadly is the worst panel in IMO. I could explain why but how long have you got? DIY wise Texe Pyronix or Visonic all have their good and bad points, non DIY HKC.
  18. It really isnt like that, its more down to sony, hik, ect selling their rejected chips ect, and they are reused to make cameras. Most of the cameras China sell are assembled to order not manufactured to order, it really is a case of you get what you pay for because there are variants of grade of rejects from good to poor, and the cheaper the camera the cheaper the chip they used. Many of the recorders are the same firmware but I've never found Dahua or Hik re-branded, I buy Seetong as a budget recorder. When Goolink was changed to look exactly the same as the Hik mobile software four weeks later it was back to its original design. Even the mobile phones in China are not what you think.
  19. It was the battery that did damage in the first place
  20. Yeah but I would haves said that helicopters were more toys than gadgets
  21. When I was in China they were selling 32GB usb's for 100RMB about £10 but they turned out to be 2GB with some clever software.
  22. Not sure what this topic has to do with security?
  23. Compared to the proper stuff it is crup atm, but it is good value for money crup and the ANPR system cannot be beaten on price nothing comes close. My Hybrid NVR/DVR cost me three times as much to produce than a 16 way Hik, my DVR/NVR is a far easier recorder to operate, search, has more features, and I can integrate the CCTV with most things, and I have better analytics. But it wont be long before Hik catch up, its only really taken them 5 years to get here, think what they will be doing in 5 years time. Sad really
  24. Ive been to China and seen how they operate a copy is exactly that, a copy. Not an original in an unbranded case. Though the case may be the same, and in some cases it may have a Hik chip it will not have the same quality.
