Excellent

or try removing the ac power (pull fuse) for a bit and see if it continues when on battery only. Also measure your induced ac with the mains off to see the difference between the psu on and off

22.3 on mine

well at least you think so Al!

I suppose I'd test it by running it on a lead to another location not fixed to the wall

wall totally flat? ie the keypad backplate isnt twisted?

Agreed but those ones shouldn't be in circulation anymore iirc they were the 1st gen?

Not seen it myself but most keypad are set to always on. The close to wake is an rf keypad thing but allows you to have wired and rf kehpads seem similar. I'd say you have a faulty one

I'm assuming wired keypad? No not seen that ever is it doing at minute clock changes?

Check if another device works next to the sounder. If it does it would suggest a sounder issue. Also note this system is an old 1 way system and should be upgraded really

I think you need to enter the code first

I don't think that is the procedure for walk test. Are you just pressing *?

Yeah I use a hdmi to usb adapter and then open then screen up in the app there is a 100ms lag though which I can't remove

As many of you know im writing an engineer app that we use as a test monitor, ip camera tool etc as well as job sheets etc Just wondering what tools / apps you find the most useful i can consider adding. ie I added flashing of the network port connection to help find the port in racks that has been well used since being added. Ta

Also need to bear in mind some stability. When it comes to detectors they all have to balance catch performance vs false alarms. Napco used to be very stable for example but could miss an elephant. Then an alarmcom ir160 wouldn't miss a knat leaving the elephants back. I do quite like optex for that balance. I hate 'pet sensors' cos imo you can't ask a pir to do that reliably

In my case 9 Yr old ahd unit does 4 way playback in app and 16 way if wanted on pc.

Smartphone app vs pc app? The 1 way playback on phone app is probably a bandwidth thing unless dual stream recording

test it with VLC i dont like hik either but if it can rtsp you should be able to get it on nvr

definetly a cable per device. I would also go for 8 core the cost difference is minimal and means you dont have to worry about future equipment changes etc Not all the same. I wouldnt touch a veritas but they are popular because of cost Yes or look at panels that offer a web server for config. Vanderbilt (acre) do and i believe eaton do too. Plus vanderbilt etc have home assistant plugins when you go past messing with your arduino esp32 etc

HI there

I don't fully understand the op problem, what is your issue?

This is the reason you use proper gear. Diy stuff can be disabled but what would you prefer an off switch? Or worse an off code. You have found out that compliant equipment does as it says.

if you remove the mains to the panel does this still occur. This will show if the 'noise' is coming in via the mains supply or another way

Yeah upto 10 on 3 cores

agree with the above from 6 id be wary of anyone that would fit the kit of your choice if it isnt their prefered equipment. Panels are similar but for instance i wouldnt touch some as the engineers are not trained on it or have experience so support will become an issue at some point. Also look for how long they have been going, you dont want to go with someone that wont be available next week. This is usually the case with the cheaper firms as they cant afford to survive and end up moving to something else
