Scoping out the existing alarm in my new house

Many thanks all.

 

Perhaps I'll just stick with this one and tweak it and be happy with it.

 

Regards.

Hi

 

Sorry to dredge this back up but I now have all the necessary codes and have checked the entire set up with regards to how the part arming is configured etc.

 

I do have a question though as although I can get the instruction manual for the unit is can't seem to find anything on the wireless pirs......

 

They are all set to flash theit lights when they are set off but I can only seem to get them to light up every few minutes and they seem quite tempeamental(risco T92). Inside they have options for mode and pulse but I can't see anything online about these options (pulse 1 2 3, mode full norm fast). Can I adjust the sensitivity? 

 

Thanks!

you don't want the led enabled it will destroy battery life. Also they only work once every 3 mins of inactivity. It's one of the many downsides of one way rf systems

That sounds very interesting and explains a few things!!! Many thanks.

 

Should I leave the other PIR options alone though whilst sorting the Leds out?

[james.wilson]

i would leave all sensors on pc2 but my own hallway sensor is on pc1. But id never have a one way system tho

Cheers all for all replies. Just trying to make my existing alarm as good for me as I can. It's not the one I'd want but better than nothing.

regards.
