Guest jonlid Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 Can anyone recommend a panel using iD sensors that combines intruder and fire detection for a domestic property. I was looking at the ade karizma but it seems that minerva & texecom are highly regarded. Can the minerva ts690id or the texecom premier 412 be used as a combined intruder/fire panel. Ideally I want a panel that I can monitor from a PC, the idea being to be able to check the status over the internet.
Guest dale Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 The texecom premier doesnt support iD, but its an excellent system. You cant really monitor it over the internet even though it can be connected to a PC. The PC connection is really to program the panel or diagnose it. Although you can dial into the system from anywhere provided you have a compatible modem. Also would it be wise to have an alarm system controlled by a PC permanently connected to the Internet, if someone hacked into your PC then they could just shutdown your alarm system and rob your house!

Guest dale Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 I hate to say it but even with advanced firewalls it is still pretty easy (although time consuming) to hack a computer system. My office has an excellent firewall seen as we have a great deal of sensitive information on it (like flight software that we write for a large aircraft manufacturer) and it was only last month that someone managed to hack the internal webserver (and re-direct all the traffic to a porn site), as well as hack the MySQL server. So I wouldnt put my alarm system on the web!

Monteey Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 The Texecom CAN be monitored over the internet now they've brought out an IP module, it CAN also support iD, with an iD expander.
