progear Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Hi all,went along to training the other day for the scantronic I-ON 16,40 etc. It was good and very informative the guys had no problem taking and answering question. If you get a chance to go along you will find it interesting. After all wireless systems are getting so popular now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9651 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Wonder how these compare to the Honeywell stuff? We tend to use the G2 with a portal if we need wirefree/hybrid. We have some scanny with RFX receivers, always think the 714r pirs are a bit slow in pick up for my liking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philjray Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 We had a demo of the 16 and 40 last week. A well thought out solution I would say. It's a shame that only the 40 upwards is a hybrid (wired, wireless) solution but the salesman told me that they are looking at releasing other versions to fill any gaps in the market place. One thing that looked interesting was the drop-down EOL resistor choices if you were doing a system takeover. Also, the web interface and smartphone friendly access look cleanly developed. Coming from an IP integration background, it's great to start seeing alarm system manufacturers dragging themselves into the 21 Century! Which reminds me that the I-ONs are BT 21CN ready too. They are comparatively pricey but if you've forgotten to set the alarm and can log in via your phone to arm it then maybe that's worth the extra cost alone?

MrHappy Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 most alarms are Final Exit or Exit Termiate, if you set the system by dailing into to it the exit process will not be completed Mr Veritas God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
