Help - Need A Burglar Alarm , Any Recommendation + Diy Or Professional

[Lwillis]

Personally I'd go for the galaxy g2/20 but that's just personal preference.

Are any being linked to your PSTN line or IP? For remote assistance of Monitering at all?

i am linking to the landline telephone with speech dialler. not looking for monitoring.

The PowerMac uses 1 way wireless devices. Personally id avoid it. But it is cheap

Can you please explain what does that mean, so i can ask the question to installers coming around to the house?

 

I had someone come around yesterday and i could tell he knew his stuff. he runs a small company locally and has plenty of recommendations. he is offering Risco GT600. I asked him about 1 way or 2 way contact but he was a big vague about the answer. Does anyone know if GT600 has 2 way wireless devices? ta

I dont think the risco uses 2 way but I dont use it.

1 way assumes the signal get through 2 way has a 2 way conversation that allows the detector to know the signal has been acknowledged if not it will retry. But there are other benefits. Id do a search im sure its been covered elsewhere here

Agility uses 2 way IIRC.

[Paul. Giles]

As an optionional extra.

 

The standard kit is one way.

 

If your installer is vague about 1-2 way i would move on to the next.

Which one has the optional extra for 2 way? Agility or Risco? ta

[Paul. Giles]

Both,

As far as i am aware the Agility comes with 1-way devices.

[Oxo]

Well they say 2 way.

But we have been here beforen have we not?

No, it supports 2-way but the basic kit comes with 1-way PIRS.

 

Well it did when we used it 12-months ago

I did notice one part where it was deffo one way but the new version has 2 way from the looks of it.
