1. Yes but the provider cant give you the code as it may be in multiple systems. Would you want a security system provider that didn't care about protecting their clients. They will have to attend and change it and this would be a chargable call. 2. If diy then then default codes will be supplied -

depends wether you want a pro service provider, fitter or diy really -

Any decent installer would not allow engineer access etc during warranty or service period imho. There would be a charge to call out and reset the installer code at the end of that period etc -
you could swap the circuits, but why is cct 4 cct 2 as it should be?
-
Hello
-
could be either or the protocol
-
some units show their address and protocol etc on boot until a telemetry command is received
-
best of luck it was a gta btw
-
get them and upload tmem, most is opinion and experience. You had a risco user reply and help you out. Then we can give our thoughts on them
-
if they want to support it then fine, I wouldnt. Diy rf wise i has to be texecom. If i was installing it would be hkc.
-
Id recommend you go with Texecom, their tech support is very good and will talk you through it
-
no, stick with what you have on that choice I hate to say it but Texecom is the best rf system for diy both Visonic and scanny are 1 way

agreed, I wouldn't of used the stuff you have but it is budget gear. A lot of people when buying an alarm system buy on price. Even when they know cheap stuff is crap. Sad even those that think about it buy the cheap sh#t that protects the family and home. At least some come here to realise it
-
ok I will
-
re the parts, audi parts have seat, vw and skoda on them. I'm sure its the same for skoda parts. But risco parts still have risco stamped on them
-
sfi? I did think I should get a tsi badged car, but no its a diesel
-
ok your on, recommend me a cheap audi front brake pad for an rs6? Yellow is ok but needs temp, green is worse. Red needs to drive harder than I do. I do agree that some parts are better, but I find that isn't the case in life, feel and knackering your disc if you have grooved and vented. You have a rover metro from the 90's alarm. Just get a decent one even if you do it yourself
-
Audi No I don't service it myself I don't know audis at all I know some alarms well.
-
ive tried all sorts of audi parts, I do about 40k a year. As with most things buying cheap has made me buy twice. Cheap stuff is cheap for a reason. The low cost installers have to use the cheaper gear. There is a reason.
-
an a similar note do you recommend the cheap sh#t part or the proper one? You will know how the cheap one compares?
-
ty you have dacia system at best. I assume you rate bmw? you drive one?
-
I can see that but I assume you had a few quotes. As with everything they are not equal. Again I ask what u do for a living? My reason is you know in your trade what is good, what to avoid etc. In your trade is cheapest best?
-
ie you bought the budget risco offering and even the better stuff is cheap. Did you want a cheap system vs a good one? That's why I was asking what you do for a living so I can compare?
