Intruder Alarms

I have a Scantronic 9210 Intruder system with a flush fitting keypad in the lounge. I know this panel is obsolete but does anyone know of a panel that offers a flush fitting panel as an option if it dies. The wife's not to keen on a 6" x 9" hole left in the lounge wall $ I.m not keen to redecorate the lounge!!

hi, could anyone inform me to which type of battery to use in a scantronic 9448+ style pannel with the correct diamentions, many thanks smash0007.

My elderly parents have a basic alarm system which has worked perfectly for over 20 years. The control unit has now gone faulty and requires replacement. Could you recommend a replacement unit which only has to cover two PIR zones and one entry/exit. The existing unit is key control under the stairs which is no longer ideal and I would prefer to fit a remote keypad just inside the entrance door. The external box should also be replaced so if you feel a complete kit would be a better deal then if you could recommend one it would be great. I should say that they are now looking to move to a retirement home so the system will probably only have to last them for about a year …

Thank you for the supply of the new remote keypad for my Visonic PowerMaster 10 I have registered the keypad without any problem. I started to register the prox tags but made a mistake, so deleted them. When I check the system, it clearly states 'none registered' When I try to re-add a tag, I now get the message "no free location". I removed the batteries from the keypad then I 'disconnected' the keypad from the main unit then re-registered the keypad with the main unit, hoping this would 'clear' any issues, but I still get the same message when trying to register a prox tag: "no free location" If I can't register any tags, the remote pad isn't a lot of use to me. P…

Hello, I have some question about the alarm system. We have two cats. Now I'm looking for the right alarm system for our house. I have 26 wired motion sensors and still need 4 wireless door and 7 wireless motion sensors. Which alarm is the better and the more modern, the Honeywell Galaxy Dimension GD-48 or the Galaxy Flex 50. Second question, I have the wired motion sensor “Active8 PIR with Pet Immunity”,( I bought them last year in England), are they compatible with Galaxy Dimension or Galaxy Flex. Or do I need other new wired motion sensors. The last question, what is the meaning of "Links" in the alarm system. Because the Honeywell Galaxy Dimension GD-48 have 64-Link…

I have a need to add 2 (ideally 3) door contacts onto a single zone on a texecom premier 48. I have tried putting resistors in each device but this wont work. I have looked in the manual and its not very detailed. It it possible or do i need to buy an expander such as the 8xe? Thanks Eddie

Hi there, i bought one of these pirs in my last order. I fit it and was sure it was working but i tested it the other day and it doesnt seem to be working correctly. It does not trigger the alarm, seems that it is permanently closed. Is there something i need to do, ie change the factory settings on the sensor or does it need returning? Regards

Hello. I am going to buy som Visonic products from this site. Are securitywarehouse selling Visonic 868 Mhz. My current system is a Powermax+ 868Mhz and i want to buy some more Visonic products. Mr Leif Jonsson / Sweden

Hello Questions about your kit refered: Visonic-Quick2Fit -Does the panel include the battery (should not, which reference to order). -Same question for the external siren -I can't find any reference for PIR detector from VISIONIC in your catalogue, so don't know which one from your catalogue could be compatible with the panel. Could you please advise (for pet tolerant only). Thanks

I have an old, very old alarm system! It uses a 4 wire CCL configuration which operated relays in a hard wired system. I would like to upgrade so that I can update/upgrade with a few more detectors. The Homelink 55 system appears to fit the bill as I reckon I could use it with my existing hard wire detectors and allow me to expand into new areas without doing more hardwiring ( add a few PIR's). As I get my neighbours to check out the house and feed the pets while I am on holiday I like to keep entry/exit operation of the alarm system simple. The question . . . can you utilise keyfobs into the Homelink 55 system giving the custodian a car remote type ac…

Hi, Which version of the Wintex software is it you have for purchase? I have a older copy which does not seem to work properly with a new Premier 48 panel that I have purchased. The version that I have is 5.2 Thanks

Hi there Sorry for my ignorance. Can you tell me the difference between Honeywells ADE Accenta Mini Gen 4 with LCd keypad (8SP399A) and The Honeyell ADE Accentta Poly Gen 4 with LCd Keypad (8SP411A) are they both compatable with the Honeywell easyset controller Kindest Regards and many thanks Terry

respected Sir/Madam Because of recent burgalary in my house. My control panel is come out off wall. I used to have 5 zone control panel but i need a 8-zone control panel & 2 sensors& new external sounder.I have gardtec system before can you tell me how much its gonna cost me. Thanx

What battery do you recommend for this combination? Does the 9651EN-43 include a speaker? If not can you recommend one? Thanks John

Hi Could you tell me what passive would replace this one as it has 3 extra connections to the normal 6. These are marked C+ , E- , and FTA. There is a wire looped from the power minus connection to the FTA connection and a brown wire in the cable connected to the C+ connection. What is the purpose of these extra connections ? The reason for replacement is that this passive leaves the led indicator on permanently which doesn't seem correct. I have always used risco quads in my own setup and they seem very reliable. Would one of these fit the bill ? The panel is a Scantronic 9800. Hoping someone can point me in the right direction for a replacement. Thanks in a…

Dear. I try to install KP-250 PG2 to my Powermaster 30. But the cetral unit only say: "Wrong ID". What shall I do?

Hi, I am looking for some help and advice with selecting an alarm system for the house I am currently renovating. It is a four bedroom house with an external garage which I would also like protecting. I would prefer a wired system as from my experiences at work, I am not fully convinced of the reliability of wireless technology! I am nearing the first-fix stage so now is the time to start planning the alarm system. I am an industrial electrician and plan to install it myself but I have no prior experience of alarm systems or installation. Here are my thoughts so far: 1.) A colleague recommended Bosch Blue Line BLD-P sensors, what do you guys think? Would one of these…

Hi! I bought a Visonic Powermax Plus last week (Thanks SecurityWarehouse !) 1. Is it possible to change Visonic Powermax Plus language ? 2. I've got two balconies : o 2 m x 3 m o 2 m x 6 m What is the best wireless protection for this balconies ? New Optex FTN-R/FTN-RAM ? Do you have other solutions ? Thanks, Jose.

We are looking at buying the domonial system, the house is simple enough, requiring a Honeywell domonial wireless 2 PIR kit, an additional PIR, 3 more tags & a wireless siren. We also have two outbuildings that require protecting, the first is approximately 7m from the house (12m from the panel) it will need an internal alarm and 2 PIRs - one at 12m the other at 19m from the main panel, the signal would also have to travel through at least two solid walls, will it do this? There is also a barn some 45m from the panel, this is a bit more complex it will require 1 PIR and a door contact, we need to access it without always turning off the rest of the system and visa ve…

Hi I have a Guardtech D500 system installed in my home an it incorporates shockguard sensors etc. I have just had new double glazing fitted and some of the sensors have been damaged, I would therefore like to upgrade my system with a new one as the wiring is already in place for the sensors I would like a wired and wireless system to increase security, I have been looking at the 595 or 816 and have spected out as system below can anyone tell me if this would work and if i have missed anything out? Guredtec 595 or (816 which has 16 zones, can I use each zone for each shockguard window sensor is this correct) 2 x wired surface mount magnetic door s…

Hello all, appreciate some help here, i have 4 pir sensors and a ADE Accenta Mini Gen4 panel, how should i wire the pir sensors in series? or should i wire each pir back to the panel? thanks for the advise!

I just received my Visonic Tower PIR, and I'm nut quite sure it is operation correctly. I installed the PIR as per instructions, about 2,3 meters up and with an angle setting of 5. This should give me at least a +/- 10 meter 90 degrees coverage. While in test mode it already showed "blank" areas where detection failed, and fully operational it will erractically detect motion (I keep in minde the 2 minute reset period after initial motion detection). Sometimes it will only detect motion within a few inches, sometimes not at all. I would be grateful for advice in this matter. Regards,

I have lost the manual that came with the Accenta 6 when it was installed some years ago. The Alarm is still functioning perfectly. Is it possible to obtain a new manual?

My internal sounder registered fine with the domonial control panel, and on viewing through engineering mode always registers a high signal (7/10) However, whenever I set (full or part) the alarm, typically every other time I get the 'INT SOUNDER RADIO LINK' error. I've configured the system to ignore these errors and set regardless without requiring confirmation - but my worry is there is a fault which might mean the sounder does not go off in case of intrusion. Last week I tried changing the batteries (on the off-chance the batteries supplied were low given the packaging was open), but this did not solve the problem. The positioning of the sounder is very cl…

hi, i am after a wired heat detector that is compatible with the hkc 1070. Im looking at the texecom products? many thanks
