  1. While I agree one way cheap wireless is pants, the argument on wired being future proof is slightly flawed. You don't know what tech will be like in the future?
  2. POE IP and HD-SDI are two completely different things and require different cabling. The latter uses a coaxial cable.
  3. Used a DSC a few times... not really aimed for the UK market. Do you not get Texecom stuff out there?
  4. You should use the part set option for this not the Areas
  5. Hmm, smartwatch. Containing a noun describing a person wearing such an item, also a verb of what you should do to them...?
  6. Auto Reset? Use a Large screen keypad? Change the keypad tones? Never had an issue explaining the Area thing to customers, they're normally pleased it has the potential to arm the garage separately. Has no effect on the operation really, sounds like the customer had made there mind up before it was installed.
  7. You don't have to name the Area at all but it will show the Area letter either way.
  8. Meh, I am glad it has two partitions now. The old 24's where like a posh Veritas.
  9. Best you can do is set some Area Text.
  10. There are 3 parts sets in each area. Just ignore the areas (put them all back to A) and use the part sets like you have done before. The Elite version of the 24, now has areas as well, this brings the menus in line with the bigger panels.
  11. Known widely as a C-Type?
  12. Try the basic uploader if your having issues or maybe a link to website with one? Please don't post multiple threads for the same thing.
  13. Configure Radio is for old gear. Use the new learn function. With the lid off the receiver it's in commissioning mode.
  14. Ciao
  15. To stop spam the PM system will open after you have made 5 posts.
  16. Do you not have a WP to test?
  17. Most guns have a power lever to adjust depth.
  18. Yeah there's Lead Carbon, Sealed Gel but also LiFePo batteries are getting popular for mobility stuff and available in 7Ah I believe. But again is it worth the cost, really the system needs checking yearly anyway.
  19. Lol, bit tricky to get the right voltage. You can get other types like gel and lithium but are they really worth the extra?
  20. Removing the hold-off for a minute or so is enough to check the battery. If the sound dips or has a low output it's likely it's near to failure. They are Nicd so last longer than the lead acid type batteries in the panel. Depending on the box you can't disable the sounder triggering. It will have at least one fixing screw you can't have something like that in the elements only clip on.
  21. Possibly. The fault may reoccur again. Intermittent issues are hard to diagnose and as you can see from the list of things suggested it's difficult to say for certain what it was. If it hasn't been serviced for a while you need an engineer anyway. The battery will only last 4 years or so.

  24. We are good like that here.
  25. CIE Fault is basically the control panel "crashing" and will require a power cycle to clear normally. You will also notice the time resets as well. With faults like this it is best to isolate one thing at a time to diagnose the issue. Personally I would start by ruling out if it is the comms that is causing the issue in the first place. FWIW all the CIE faults I have had in the past have been mains related, mains spikes, prepay meters/MCBs tripping out, noisy equipment on same CU. Does the timing of the issue relate to any changes or new equipment?
