If its not graded it can't be done. What is it?

6wb some apps do push only but some manufacturers do apps that call from the cloud. Some are polled (upto DP2). Depends on the features paid for. I have dual path monitoring via my app via the ARC. Agreed that relying on push only isnt best for anything

Id also add bear in mind you want to look at dual path app (and polling rates) as wifi only makes you totally dependant upon the router and isp. (ie mains fail or mains fail caused by intruders) This mains fail thing will become more common as many are using low end ring etc devices that need the 'cloud' to function. At least an intruder alarm will still work even if your broadband isnt available for whatever reason. ANd apps and notificaitions are great for upgrading diallers but not a replacement for 'monitoring' Check the app can wake you and others and has other options like sms for non app users. If your the only one and your phones on silent, in the car etc.

As others have said how much would you prioritise something that you do for free. Texecom is not a bad system but they make a huge range of equipment at various levels. Its not my brand of choice but many installers do like the texecom. I do think the premier is a powerful and flexible panel though.

Could be bell cable or panel When was it last serviced and which accenta do you have

Agreed showing age >v1. 6 castle 2000 or galaxy classic without the v4-to 4.06 issues. Stability wise its only hkc since I did play with a 2500 TS between that and the Gal would of been a dream panel, I know the TS team moved to tex to create the Premier

Agreed your the texecom expert on radio I've only supported issues on it. From what you say it's always an installation issue. I can add my bit from support. It will be brief New visonic is less troublesome than the previous, risco is popular but similar, pyronix is more on numbers but at least its 2 way ish, scanny (Eaton) is 1 way and is low on issues. Daitem is low too. There will be a day when stats like this are published.

I'd agree 1 way is tat and similar to the DIY stuff available now but scanny 4 stuff was pretty reliable. That was 20 yrs ago though I wouldn't trust it now. I had a tech conversation today about signalling. We used to think 50v pstn and an fsi guaranteed an alarm delivery, we now expect polling and testing the alarm delivery path. Rf is no different if you don't poll you have no idea what might ish be delivered if ever.

If I have to say best for range modified scantronic 46xx. Got a good 2km on test. Latest stuff I'm going hkc for range and little hassle, I'm sure Adrians texecom stuff would do well too as 3 way mesh though

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-56082354 Please make sure you don't think "it works that will do' Its saved me a bit what's the worst that can happen?

the only panel i know of that does that is the hkc. Can you link the user number to prevent use?

Have you metered the trigger? You 100% it was working before reprogramming ie did you test it before you started. If you did you must of programmed something else

Coming soon when do you think that is? Apart from not yet?

have you added it as a user or you looking at the engineer options?

As above some people want an 'upgrade' but if you have wires you should definitely use them. There is no way your cpx keypad is connected to your enforcer rf system

for info vids on youtube on how to defeat diy type alarms easily I believe this is a yale simplisafe

I'm not saying your green or short of anything. My concern in your case and others following this thread in the future is the idea that 'it works' once so must be OK. Will always work once when it's needed... Wrong. One way rf is awful fine for doorbells, I'm here requests etc but for not for security. As I said look into. Imo discount 1 way for anything other than door bells but not all 2 way stuff is equal.

You can make it look like it works using various rf receivers. You ought to look into rf and alarms. The home automation forums are happy with sonoff 422 485 rf etc. The DIY market does use those freq as well as 868 but that's all. Look into properly before you think all are the same

Best way solid core is awful on screw terminals

apart from the solid core nature its still cable

i dont know the texecom stuff well but ive done hkc outside over 500m

If its a magnetic contact why use WiFi, why not use wireless rf gear to a control panel of choice?

lol yes 12A or 3KW

Agreed anything over 12kw shouldn't be on a plug top or on the ring yes it will work just like taking all the panels off your car including the windscreen will get you to where your going...

yes to start with, then move it to the end of the cable
