If you are going to commit fraud, always a good tip not to plan it out loud on a public forum, don't we think?

If you want to keep your neighbours as friends, I would call an out of hours pro now. The battery is faulty, almost certainly dead after all these years. If you find the main control box, and disable it, then it's possible the external siren will then start to sound for up to 20 minutes. Smashing it up, or disabling the keypad, will not help I'm afraid.

Inside every revolutionary is a policeman...

I had a funny dealing, on the 'M' also that 'lid tamper' inc case and modules was always an eng reset event? Whilst of course you could set zone tamper to user... Not sure if that's right but had a play with an M600 last week prior to scrapping.

Hi there, welcome! Have moved your post to a new topic

Welcome and hello!

Always the sign of a rush job isn't it, bracketed PIRs sat in the middle of the ceiling. Used my 2nd one ever last month, moving an existing IR120.

One more post and people can PM you

TBH they are already going for a fair few quid on ebay, can't see prices rising just yet

Farewell press release?

^^^ I'm with sensible

Nope youre right, it's something they introduced on the last incarnations of the now discontinued 9751 9752 and 9853 EN models that's slightly pointlessly crept into the remaining 9651 model

There is no issue, although on a 9651 the only relevant bus checks it's doing are for keypads. A longish wait is normal, I upgraded a 9853 last week with a second keypad and xpander and that takes about the same time to get to 'exit engineer?'. Other than mains or battery, if there are faults it can see, it won't let you exit. The only specific bellbox fault this panel can detect is an open tamper.

Get paid? Slightly better effort than my smelly alarm joke How come they went to a security Co rather than broadcast? Oh yeah, cost?!

Yep this is it when you're checking every year, it's not so relevant.

Was it something like lead carbon I saw in Rs last year, five times the price but a ten year warranty?

Has anyone ever thought of making a 7aH battery comprised of several bellbox batteries?

+1 Axis are bulletproof, and no mickey mouse company to deal with either, which is a bonus.

Yeah thought that except customer says they got to choose the kitchen but were never offered an alarm Maybe some Co they had lined up pulled out Oh and there is a no bellbox covenant on the whole estate, oops!!

Sized up a job this week where no wiring in a new build but a spur on a dedicated circuit marked alarm. Must have been for a wireless system but not even a keypad wire. Odd.

Im qual but not part p, as I try to avoid panels in bathrooms and Sheds! And non domestic isnt under the scheme as we all know. All paperwork using iet model forms.

There is absolutely no requirement for any additional fused spur being added to a ring circuit or lighting circuit to be doneby a Part P bod. But it should be a competent person and should be certificated for the tests that were done. Obvious exceptions would be; Domestics in a Bathroom or when any part of the cable runs outdoors with a junction box also being outside Connecting direct to the CU and prob lots of others....

Hi Les, going back to the original post, a map like that might be good actually....

"Some providers may indicate that they already provide a SIM capable of switching between several networks. This is absolutely true, however, what is not made clear in some cases is that an outage of the MNO with whom the SIM is hosted would mean that the SIM cannot 'lock onto' another network and is in effect rendered incapable of signalling due to an outage of a single supplier." I think many don't realise this; that the 'multisim' type of product can only help with day to day signal strength; not outright network failure. Interesting post as ever Joe, although I can't see manufacturers rushing to implement this, I wish they would though; for example I have a GPRS only site which fails every year when the Glastonbury carnival (with their temporary phone masts at full blast) rolls into town. Ultimately the customer will not pay for dual path; but a quick switch to a competitors network, just for 3 days, would cure this. Also, as I have mentioned before, a local town to us (Burnham) had no vodaphone whatsoever for 5 weeks earlier this year! So it is a real problem.
