I have no voltage on my PIR

This will convert the detectors single NC relay contacts to 2 sets of Form C relay connections. If tamper is required that can be wired the same or just use the tamper on the alarm panel

Yes you can do this with something like Pyronix Standalone Receiver Enforcer Series Two-Way Radio [UR2-WE] - £59.06 : , Best Price Promise But id strongly recommend upgrading the control panel to a Hybrid unit to pick up the existing hard wired detectors and add your rf one

Hello I'm hoping for some advice if the following is possible and if so, which products are suitable. I have an old Optima XM system with hardwired contacts for the Front Door Zone. I am trying to understand if there is a suitable product that allows me to change the hardwired door contact to a wireless battery operated contact. Is there a wireless converter I can instal next to the control box that can take the wireless signal from the contact and convert to a hardwired connection between the wireless converter and the relevant zone contacts in the Optima controller. If so, are there any suggestions of products for the converter and/or door contact. Thanks for any advice in advance.

A lot of gear does does do that like the versigo sentry

Hi everyone, I’ve been working on people counting solutions that work with most standard IP/CCTV cameras, especially for retail stores, malls, and public venues. It’s been really interesting to see how different camera placements, resolutions, and lighting conditions affect accuracy. I’ve found that keeping the camera high and angled downwards usually gives the most reliable counts, and anonymizing the footage is a must for privacy compliance. I’d love to hear how others here handle similar analytics projects. Have any of you worked on footfall or people counting setups before? Any tips or pitfalls to share? Thanks!

Awesome! - All sorted now - many thanks

The cp8l had 8 zones and lcd keypad. Assuming you dont want apps etc then Eaton Wired Intruder Alarm Panel Kit [I-ON10-K] - £89.38 : , Best Price Promise

Hi, hopefully you can help me my Eurosec cp8l has stopped working after several years. I need to get a replacement if possible I would appreciate it if you have any suggestions for me to swop over to a new alarm thanks.

what you have there is a standard contact where the installer has added the resistors they are 1K 1K ie Knight D20 5 Terminal Surface Contact [D20] - £1.14 : , Best Price Promise so you can replace the contact and re add the resistors or if you use a d75 it has jumpers to select the resistors Knight D75 Surface Contact with Selectable Resistors Knight D75 Surface Door Contact with Selectable resistors [D75MULTI] - £3.50 : , Best Price Promise

Hi All We have an old ADT Accord XPC home alarm system that's been excellent. Recently we've had the alarm go off around half an house after leaving the house, then it resets itself. I've done some tests and have come to the conclusion that the problem is with our front door Reed Switch sensor. My issue is tyring to identify the door sensor I need to order - as you can see by the photos, I've taken it apart and mine has two additional resistors. Every one I've ordered so far doesn't have these resistors and wont work with my alarm system. Any help in identifying this door sensor and the replacement I need would be much appreciated. Thanks

Best thing to do is post photos of the transmitters and recievers The red light shows the device is activating, there will be a set of alarm contacts. these maybe C NO NC or just C and NC depending on age. This will only be on the recievers. Use a multimeter to confirm the contacts are changing states correctly

Hoping for some advice and please note I am not an electrician I am just trying to troubleshoot a problem before calling one. I have two pairs of ax130 tn sensors operating lights in an outdoor domestic setting. My question is when I take the covers of the sensors what should I see as far as led lights are concerned. I have a sensor that has no light on it unless the beam is broken, it then turns red. The other sensors seem to have either a permanent red or green light on. Which is correct and can you suggest a way to troubleshoot the sensors to find out if I have a faulty one? Thank you in advance.

Any panel would be suitable, the logic 6 was a double pole panel. All panels are now more complicated than the logic 6. Options include hkc, Eaton, pyronix texecom etc

I have an old ADE Logic 6 wired control panel that I need to replace. It is linked to 3x wired PIRs and 3x wired door switches and I would like the replacement to have remote access via wi-fi link to my local router and suitable app. Can you suggest replacement that is not too complicated or expensive? Thanks David

Knight Grade 2 Shock and Surface / Tilt Sensor [SEISMO] - £18.69 : , Best Price Promise is a suitable shock sensor Elmdene 12V DC 1A PSU [G13801N-A] - £23.66 : , Best Price Promise 12v 1A power supply Enersys 12v 3.4Ah Battery [Enersys12v3.4] - £11.47 : , Best Price Promise battery Interface Solutions 12 volt Polarised Relay [IS12] - £8.50 : , Best Price Promise relay to provide 2 sets of volt free contacts from the detector. Without knowing exactly what your wanting to achieve the above would function, but probably better to connect the shock sensor to its own intruder panel and link the output of the panel to the BMS

A suitable shock sensor is

additionally, we would need the device to have the following:- Powered by a dc supply with battery backup in case the power supply fail's Alarm contact for a sounder. Volt free contact for BMS so we can link to our security system. Information as to how the device is set before we close the cage and how it is reset, is there a short delay on setting the alarm? Can you suggest what we could use? Many Thanks

The Risco Shocktec maybe an option a shock detector to use on your metal cage. I have added the link to our website for pricing; Risco ShockTec Plus with Grade 3 Contact [RK601SMG3] - £21.64 : , Best Price Promise

Can you suggest a shock detector to use on a metal cage.

A pro IP camera could do this but wifi based camera are not usually pro level. This would enable an app on a phone with smart push notifications.

Yes please, I would like an alternative that has a built in buzzer or chime(not a loud siren). Also it must not need to connect to wifi as looking for a basic standalone device. Thank you.

The sensor will not work through glass, as the glass blocks the infrared needed for it to detect movement. It would need to be positioned with a clear, unobstructed view to operate correctly. If you’d like help finding an alternative that will suit your setup, I’m happy to assist.

I am looking for motion sensors that sit on my window cill that points out of window and can detect a person outside but only up to a few meters. I would like a buzzer that goes off but not a loud siren. I dont have Wifi for security risks as everything is multiple VLANs via ethernet cables. Can you please recommend what would be suitable to achieve this, Thank you

Is it a 540 tvl ptz internal camera?
