arfur mo Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Afurmo thanks for the first constructive piece of adivce.... Im giving up.....wow wot a forumLoosen up guys play some guitar.....I think you took my question the totally the wrong way, correct I dont want to get ripped off who would....I just wanted clarification on a good system mainly Ive seen loads of flaming on these forums for just asking an opinion.....not helpful guys at all No offense to the good people on here in the trade but if this how the "trade" is then you have made me think harder about doing a DIY install speaks absolute volumes to all the so called self believed 'pro's' amongst us, being a true professional is not just knowing about regs and proper installation standards, it's also how we present our selves to the prospective client who is unaware what exactely is involved in what we do. got to say it seems a bad habit of some to jump on any unfortunately or incompletely phrased question, just remember we earn our living based on knowing what we do, so before you make your own remark just think would you be so superior doing what an o/p did for their living? regs alan If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!

This thread appears to be like many others. Namely, i want you experts to tell me everything i need to know so i don't need to use your services, which frankly, i consider too expensive anyway. There's also a suggestion in there that 'approved' may not be all it seems. If that's the case, why ask total strangers??

Guest anguscanplay Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 at the risk of repeating myself decide first if you want to do it yourself or not - if you dont then you jumped the gun by running the cables yourself if you do then pick a panel thats aimed at the diy market - as you have seen the trade like trade equipment and shy away from the stuff aimed at diy and sparkys ( theres a reason we use the stuff we do as apposed to the other tat ,and its nothing to do with inflated profit margins)the only advise when you are looking for " a good system to install " is get the firms on site and listen to what they say , its their risk assesment and grading structure after all where as me i`ve got nothing to loose by misleading you here. drop the questions about how we work and ask more specific questions regards angus risco - built in dialler - why pay extra one in the future ?

FASTCAR Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 The CPX is only a very basic dialer , and it shares the rather plasticy RKP of the CP8L...... maybe look at the 490 if all you want to do is dial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
