  1. There is no way to control 3rd party integrations if the provider doesn't have 3rd party certification. Its a want these houses have not a need. Think about what would happen if the system failed to perform. The certification company would be taking all the risk on a system the installer / maintainer has no control over. I believe these integrations rely on engineer level access between them. Any installer doing this without the necessary protection is daft IMHO. There is a 'guide' being worked on but the scope is so massive there is no time line if it ever sees the light of day.
  2. imo no they are not
  3. As long as the component doing the disarming meets the component requirements of en 50131 then you can certificate it
  4. Getting any eu compliant panel to talk to a non graded system isnt currently doable out of the box. You can obviously use relays and such like but not ideal. I use home assistant with my hkc system but there is no way id allow home assistant to control the set status only to view or for logic etc. You could probably get the events via 232 printer but ive not investigated that yet
  5. The only system I know that did this was the old castle stuff multiple end stations was called a 2900 to begin with then a multi 2500 or 2700. I'd go with 6 it's probably not linked
  6. lol
  7. Seems like some minds think alike
  8. So today you would be top knot?
  9. Looks like a warbutons crumpet
  10. ta will do, can i program this or will a factory default fix the daylight issue?
  11. i cant go outside ive done my exercise for today
  12. thats the case on ww1 dont know on dualcom
  13. sounds like a routing issue between csl and the arc, incorrect account number in panel?
  14. I predict a bit one came good then lol
  15. Everyone knows they do, may as well post it then pretend its not happening
  16. Is that double knock for a wireless sensor that goes to sleep... That'll work well
  17. I was just saying these features have been available for some time on high end kit. It's now making its way onto budget machines like hik. Next it will be on nest etc and as the slide down continues the performance will too
  18. bear in mind this will become a tickbox feature as lower end gear adds it as a feature that wont work at all like movement detection on traditional dvr's etc
  19. Visonic do shock sensors look at adding those
  20. depends on what you class as cheap. I think so yes, acceptable but low end. A decent hard wired pet tolerant sensor is more than a wireless visonic one. But i dont like them as a theory. If you have pets then peremiter protection is the way to go imho
  21. Its a whole other topic but 'pet' sensors are awful especially the cheap ones
  22. I dont know what you mean. There isnt a native open data out if thats what you mean?
  23. there is shedule stuff on hkc
  24. battery life im unsure of, but worst case ill change to 1.5v lithiums Opentherm does work on zones, i run my zones as rooms you can add upto 8 (iirc) trvs per room so opentherm would call for heat output from the boiler based on heat required for the rooms calling for it etc. Nest wouldnt work for me which is why i went for the drayton. The trv's arnt mesh so require powered boosters if range is an issue but in my old cottage I didnt need any
