    It would need an annual monitoring charge. Its not a one off fee
  2. james.wilson
    Ideally ypu need a hi lo sounder

    Have a look at the nsi website for nsi installers in your area and get 3 quotes. Then post back etc

    They were magnetic sensitive so had to be away from that. Also weren't supposed to extend the white leg so shutters, sealed stuff etc 'could' be an issue
  5. james.wilson
    There was a replacement called oip never adopted by anyone but gjd iirc

    If its not doing anything and it has 12v at the keypad terminals I'd say you have either blown it or its doa
  7. james.wilson
    Check there is data getting to the keypad. Disconnect all keypad connections and test it on the cp on a short temp wire

    It is worrying how cctv seems to be the ideal for all, but when something happens it rarely is. Hopefully people will ask a security professional their opinion just before the hot place freezes over. Then we will all be tarred with the same brush as nest and ring. Isn't it brilliant marketing

    Eng manuals are only on the trade side. Batts depend on device the contacts are different to the passives to the bell etc

    Visonic powermax

    Use an output programmed as ee horn. Or a proper speaker. Hate those twin alert things

    Hi there
  13. james.wilson
    also in EN a circuit has to perform certain actions within a set time. 10 seconds or twice wouldn't meet that requirement so technically any insurance, certification and claims to compliance could be void

    But it's still a recognised brand. It's assumed im assuming that makes it better than the professional stuff. As Pete has said previously 'wonder why b&q etc don't have a yale bell on them' good job they have a decent system protecting all that yale stock....

    Everything should be tested once a month on the user walk test anyway?
  16. james.wilson
    Used to be back in the day
  17. james.wilson
    Good unit though, what you thinking instead?
  18. james.wilson
    Yes but those outputs can't drive anything they are pretty much logic states. You need to add a wireless transmitter for the system it is to be used on to relay to the house
  19. james.wilson
    I would stop looking at yale too
  20. james.wilson
    X y problem? They are designed to be connected to a wireless transmitter. Then use the contacts on the receiver to drive your wired sounder unit
  21. james.wilson
    Yes it's possible to change your own batteries but possible and a good idea are 2 different things. I wouldnt get involved in that especially if your insisting on annual changes
  22. james.wilson
    I would leave it to the maintainer but batteries should last more than 2years. Manufacture spec may say much higher but I'd still go every other year. If its failing before that I'd replace the device. Also as your 7 years into device design its close
  23. james.wilson
    It would fit but I've never tried
  24. james.wilson
    maybe this? https://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/intruder-alarm-c-36/movement-detectors-c-36_116/all-c-36_116_37/takex-dualzone-12m-180-degrees-pet-external-detector-p-3865.html
  25. james.wilson
    180 degree will be hard on anything decent. All decent sensors I know of are 90 deg max
