  1. its a gross attack. your panel will report that its different to a pulse attack. Basically means 1 big impact rather than a few smaller ones but depends how you have it wired if you have a contact in series with the shock sensor or did you bang the window to open it?
  2. It's a switched mode psu I'd check it still has output with load. Unplugged even if knackered it will give voltage, check it on load
  3. Be cautious though as you said they only do ooh to contracts only. I'd agree with that. But if you have no contract you also have insurance issues
  4. Hello there
  5. Best of luck, what did you do before?
  6. On a bell the tamper isn't a switch it should be 0v if the tamper is ok Meter between tr and ho + you should get >12v
  7. Agreed on the above a well maintained system should not activate the external bell however it should inform 'a level 2 user' that it has an issue. As pj says all those alarms that activate externally show that they are not looked after, maintained or bothered about. So never armed if functioning at all. Never let your external sounder activate without decent cause or some might think its just a power failure
  8. To be fair they have a point.
  9. imo you want to avoid network for the core system. It should function on its own routers need power etc so i wouldnt worry about the network side, just use it for notification etc
  10. And the patented pending always armed thing would be a huge issue Regulation wise here. The idea has merit but needs refining.if it was somehow linked to ha or presence reporting though
  11. Sorry I dont even know the product (i think) what is it?
  12. Dsc used to make one but anything that claims grade 4 is different to anything that is 3rd party certificated. Without it I could claim a logic 4 was grade 4 and self certify it was. Utterly meaningless
  13. It was never designed for dp the older stuff was and had pos and neg circuits iirc odds were neg evens were pos.
  14. are you sure its sending data to the dcm. Just because its saying succesfull read thats all the reader is reporting. Id investigate formats and connection between the reader and the dcm
  15. It does look that way. I'm guessing anyone that wants to be paid to promote sia or SW and SW products might have an opportunity In this case its neither
  16. Zabor you trying to hit 5 posts for a reason?
  17. Hi
  18. I think that time is changing. I don't think ajax is a professional system for the same reasons I don't think ring is. However 'if' it meets the standards then it could be installed by pros and diy alike. There should be a system standard for 50131 rather than just components As I've had this previously this is my opinion not a statement of fact or non approval
  19. You do know some will do this like drilling holes in their iPhone to get a jack
  20. Sorry I was using my galaxy and old euro knowledge was off then
  21. bear in mind any eol panel that doesnt use pos and neg circuits (none do that i know of?) dp wiring wont comply as it wont detect a short circuit
  22. depends what they were and what you replaced them with
  23. It probably says it wants 240v to As a side note I was working with an IT engineer today who was replacing switches. They were 4 Yr old but end of life so being replaced. Nothing is expected to last as long as IA gear it appears
  24. Looks like a scantronic 9800? But I haven't seen one in years If so uses double pole wiring (no resistors) You will have to add the resistors but given the age your probably going to replace tge sensors too
