Policed Wireless I/a System

[BUSTER]

Always awake

[alterEGO]

I presume using wireless door contacts is not a problem on entry/ exit doors as they are asleep untill the system is armed and locked up overnight?

We have never had a problem.

Contacts are always awake, batteries will get killed if very high traffic

Contacts awake due to having chime enabled?

So wired contacts on entry/exit and the rest wireless.

This always awake?

Tbh this is a long standing customer for years and I would not like to have issues with his alarm.

Good point, I haven't got any commercial on wireless contacts and of course the door could get opened 50+ times

a day not 4-8 like on a domestic....

anyone having issues with texecom wireless battery life yet?

Not once I connected a 17ah to it, no . . .

 

Having them as always awake due to issues when they were sleeping has seen the juice go down a fair bit.

These doors could be opened 20-50 times an hour in a 8 hour day.

I thought that when disarmed the system was in sleep mode programmed 12hr?

Any advice please? If wired for doors has to go in then so be it.

No other issues with richochet as I really don't want to let our customer down as we have done business for the past 8 years.

Any wireless system will have issues with high traffic on door contacts.

As for Ricochet battery life, we put a Ricochet system with 32 detectors in the first month or two of release and I think it is still running on the original bats. We agreed not to replace at two years and wait for the first battery to die, just to give it a real test.

Sounds good alter.

Checking back full cable run to doors with no jb's (I hope lol)

Will put quote in tomm for wireless.... He loves the Videofied we fitted so going to quote texecom.
