  1. I don't know the panel well but I would agree that you should only be able to change a master code and not delete it. I can only suggest the code has been changed or defaulted by accident while you where in the menu. Maybe while you where escaping the menus? Incorrect code entry will create a tamper event if you keep trying. If you don't know the code the only suggestion is to get your company out to reprogram it for you.
  2. Every detector will be different, generally 360's are fitted in the centre of the room but every site is different too. Reading the detectors documentation and testing should cover everything. Take careful note with coverage over mounting height. Keep in mind movement perpendicular to the detection pattern offers better detection.
  3. Time to call the installer for a service.
  4. Depends on the room. Corner mounted sensors are designed to cover a 90 degree area over it's detection pattern, which ideally covers across the entry points. Positioned correctly corner mounted has better coverage IMO but there is no reason 360's couldn't be suitable. The only time I recall using a 360 on a domestic was in a garage with no wall space anywhere.
  5. Stone chip spray paint on the cables can deter mice from nibbling. Rats are a different matter they'll chew through pretty much anything if they want to.
  6. You need to contact the installer that fitted the system, or alternatively get an installer that fits Texecom.
  7. Have it agreed that the customer is to provide unswitched unindicated FCU with 3A fuse, if it's not there come installation date provide a plug top and document as a temporary measure.
  8. So it's most likely a digital watermark then, the software will put the timestamp next to the image for you.
  9. I am thinking like James this would be a file format option. I don't remember an overlay option on any Samsung DVR I have worked on, it would seem pointless to have an option to disable it
  10. Installation manuals are provided via our Downloads section which is accessible to registered trade members only.
  11. You never know. Where there's muck...
  12. Not really just shares in OpenTAP will increase, may even cause more gateways to appear.
  13. Been looming for a little while now. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-39868449 https://www.paging.vodafone.net/
  14. Ah, that type has different modules for the resistor values, I don't believe there is a DP board option as it's aimed as a Grade 3 product. If you decide to use it best to wire your Menvier for EOL, switch DIP 1 on to and a link into set to disable AM. Even then detector has a possibility of throwing a 4K4 with a "detector fault", not sure what a Menvier would do with that resistance (either nothing or alarm condition if on threshold). Suppose it depends which panel
  15. On Meniver the resistors would be the same as Texecom. Jumpers all off for DP connections.
  16. Looks C Type? So they where built up from parts like bell, module and strobe. Strobe unit should have been mounted underneath to deter the cowboys. Although simpler ways of disabling them where found.
  17. It's likely you don't have permissions for either yet then.
  18. Display Pic:- http://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/profile/73096-dds-cctv/ Click icon adjacent picture "Profile Photo" Signature:- "Edit Profile" Near top right of page above. Signature is at the bottom.
  19. So the logical first question is:- Do you know how to measure the quiescent, alarm and what standby time is required for your system? Garbage in, garbage out...
  20. No, you need to select a wired or wireless bell they do not do both. Kit ones are normally the basic version of the PIR, not the Elite QD or DT versions which are better. Basically most of the wireless kits provide a budget option to try to compete with other manufactures kits. If you want to pick you would have to buy individually.
  21. It does and there are no repeaters it's mesh.
  22. Installed correctly as per the instructions you shouldn't have any issues. If you don't know what you are doing you are likely to have endless polling errors and headaches.
  23. From what i can tell of your post the acknowledgement and abort options are set incorrectly.
  24. These card only use one COM port so if busy doing a task you will not be able to login. This to me sounds like something is misconfigured in the router. Every router is different and ISP provided routers are junk. Update IP works as intended from your description. I would put the old router back to test it myself. I never liked the WiFi version but never had an problem with LAN card. WiFi ones are a bit annoying to get setup but when setup work fine. They have there limitations hence the new Smartcom but again it's down to people expecting plug and play instead of following the instructions, like I said in the trade thread recently. For private reporting services (not connected to an ARC) I would prefer to have a ComIP and use my own static IP or DDNS service over using a closed platform to auto-configure everything.
  25. Never fitted one or taken one down. I would imagine a Friedland bell and SCB bell module with battery?
