Easy to get round if you know how.

Callback or firewall? Or both?

Anyway it depends of the setup. But I wouldn't like to give our setup info to public.. :whistle:

I am not too worried because it became quite obvious that it would take a good deal of skill to do this and your average 'chancer/sneak thief/opportunist' probably wouldn't have a clue how to do it. I don't think many highly sophisticated knowledgeable diamond thieves will want to have a go at my fairly average 3 bedroom semi!

Quite right Dobbin but if you don't know exactly how to install alarm system it might get tampered _accidentaly_ . And according to Murphy's law some opportunist will try his luck then when that has happened.

And that has happened here (in coldshire) and i believe it has happened there too.

I agree mostly with you Zak, except a home network wont keep half the neighbourhood up all night because it keeps false alarming.

With the Permier, you can either wire for double-pole (no resistors), or D-EOL/T-EOL (two or three resistors), both options are shown in the manual on P.19 (or the addendum for T-EOL).

I think it is a matter of personal choice, and if you look in the gallery, you will find some examples of panel installation. I think Lurch has put some lovely examples of a Premier install up there, and he used a mixture of DP and EOL wiring, I seem to remember it was DP for the MRS and EOL for the detectors.

You can however, buy MRS with built-in resistors (as a member of the public) for the Texecom range of panels from some retailers.

I think you'll find he used EOL all the way through as he does on every commercial install and some domestics. ;)

Hi Lurch,

sorry about that, thought the attached photo was one of yours. I can't find it in the gallery any more, but I copied it down because I was going to use it as a template for when I install my Premier.

I don't know who's install this was then, but it struck me as being a neat job. Zone 7 appears to be using DP, whilst the others are EOL.

Yep, I know who's install that is. Only thing to note there is the incorrect use of the side cutters to remove half the top of the expander to form a cable entry point. When you get one out of the box you'll see the proper way of doing it.
