    Also if its just std surfac door contacts how close / inline are they? Are they decent ones? maybe a picture of how they are fitted. As 6 says as you can now see fault finding is needed as all you know is its one of the 3 rather than identifying 1 contact. However if its stable with 2 and unstable with 3 id suggest its local to the 3rd. I presume as 6 its double pole and you havnt hidden resistors somewhere

    Is it a 6 core cable? If so just use eol contacts \resistors and put 1 on each circuit. Id only put 2 on 1 circuit if its double doors

    Anyone know of it/them Signal Dynamic - News - Signal Dynamic Launches Redcare Replacement
  4. james.wilson
    agreed something with poe passthrough
  5. james.wilson
    Pretty much any hybrid or wired panel will do that. Assuming the peripherals are ok and of decent quality

    the IT industry is used to end of life devices. we have been reporting kit as eol for a while now. But noone upgrades security devices. Had an adpro fail today that was reported as eol years ago. but if it say a switch is eol it get replaced immediately even though its the same network etc anyway link to article Over 92,000 exposed D-Link NAS devices have a backdoor account (bleepingcomputer.com)

    If its new sounds like it's wired wrong not faulty but be careful you don't blow another board

    Agreed but the vast number shown just on that site shocked me. I didn't want to delve too much and see people's camera feeds but I'm sure plenty do. Be able to learn people's coming and goings at the very least And now that Google ai can use street view to work out the location be pretty easy to find out where

    Found this to show the size of the problem. Also shows to me that most people dont value this at all Device Map - hacked.camera also a tool on github to see if you have anything on your local network

    as above the tamper will be tamper return and iirc is a -ve
  11. james.wilson
    i dont think thats right Al, downloaded of a mobile phone app, then sent to a pc to be stored on usb or dvd etc. No-one does it right unless the maintaniner is asked to download the footage
  12. james.wilson
    They will only support trade its not b&q type stuff. re the tamper you will have tamper loop in the panel, sab tamper in the panel and keypad tampers. ALso the sab tamper may be ok at the sab is it ok at the panel?
  13. james.wilson
    probably the sab tamper there is more than the tamper loop, plus that wire to the sab shouldnt be visible
  14. james.wilson
    agreed but most systems are not managed properly nor is it decent kit

    The Security Event 2024 | Agenda anyone going?

    Whats the thoughts on how this may affect cctv ie if defence case uses same footage and changes the face to the defence KC etc I notice a lot of diy type cameras only ave footage in mp4 format not in a native secure format. 'I was deepfaked by my best friend' - BBC News

    You have just connected your fan to a relay I can't see that working if its a relay. Use your multimeter to see if the relay changes state or wire the power to the fan through the relay

    if its not coomunicating then it wont go off again, however the siren may self actuate with a panel instruction if its tamper switch keeps operating

    supervision failure is bad. Usually because batts havnt been chnaged or inferior cheap ones used. Is jamming detect trurned on (should be)
  20. james.wilson
    you will need to fix the tamper issue on the bell. Id assume its not closing correctly or not securly fitted to the wall
  21. james.wilson
    if disconnected and jumper in both settings id say you may have blown it up
  22. james.wilson
    if you disconnect the stobe input on the sab does it stop?
  23. james.wilson
    supervision failure means the panel had heard from the sensor for a period of time. This would mean if it needed to transmit an alarm it wouldnt get through and it wouldnt work. You dont want to disable this you want to fix the problem. There will be more info on the siren fault you will need to know this to help diagnose
  24. james.wilson
    id move the LF jumper
  25. james.wilson
    Every pro will recommend and specialise. My personal pref is for hkc buy is fat from a diy suitable product I doubt you would get support for it
