Intruder Alarms

Hi again, i should of asked in my original post, but does the above panal come with fitting and user instructions? Many thanks, Derry. p.s. this kit is

I have a problem with the GSM-module...when I installed it I made the system powerless as it said in the manual, installed the sim-card and put the module in place. I connected the power both the battery and the AC. When I later should install the GSM in the "menu# 6" (where I put in the numbers the alarm shall sms to) it

I bought a complete system from you towards the end of September (orders 12995 and 13006) and have recently installed the alarm in our new house. All is well except that I get I am getting SETTING FAULTS showing on the LCD keypad from the zones that are on the exit route. System sets and unsets correctly despite this. Have I made a mistake somewhere? I have checked the manual and searched the internet but can find no mention of setting faults anywhere. Hope you can help or point me in the right direction. Many thanks.

Hi The receiver panel is a RFX08 and a 9751 control unit. The client has a 722 fob that will activate the panic alarm. However they have requested something like a one button alarm that can be attached to a wrist band/necklace for an elderly persons use around the home. Thanks PeterG

I am thinking about buying a le sucre alarm system. Could you please advise on the following. 1. Is it possible to set only ground floor sensors at night? 2. Can the system be connected to the phoneline as well as sim? 3. After the two year sim period where would the sim be purchased? Many thanks

Hi 1. What PIR detectors are included in the Risco Wireless Wisdom Kit? RWT92? 2. Informative stickers (informning the possible burglar of the alarm), are such included or can they be bought separately? 3. Could you give me some advice regarding Risco's Wisdom and the Powermax+? Those are the recommended/approved wireless alams in Sweden but there seems to be quite a difference regarding the price (3PIR, external siren, central unit, 2 keyfob)? Best regards, Jonas

Hi, We are having false alarm trouble with one sensor in our already installed alarm. We have sensitivity set at the lowest possible level. This GS611 shock sensor with reed switch is mounted horizontally on the top right of an external glass door frame (on the frame not the door) - it is a back door and rarely used. I cannot find (anywhere in the UK/Ireland) that will sell me a replacement, I can get one from the states but shipping is 90$+ (!) My question is, do you know of a compatible replacement shock sensor/reed switch that I could source in the UK?? For example from securitywarehouse would this wor…

Please can you confirm wiring details for this system: the control is the Honeywell Galaxy Flex 20 and Honeywell IS215T PIR's are these compatible, how do i connect these as i have only wired alarms that have a separate tamper circuit connections do you have any wiring diagrams showing these PIR's wired singly to each zone ( 1 PIR per Zone)

I am replacing a Karisma plus alarm system in a large house. Unfortunately this randomly goes off & is especially susceptible to fluorescent lights. Requirements for new system:- Be able to identify all items individually and have them displayed with name on RKP eg kitchen window, front door. House has several loops of 4 core (unscreened) cable so can't put items on individual wiring. No windows = 17 no doors = 3 no PIRs = 6 no fire detectors = 2 no RKPs = 3 System should have dialer + speech module or GSM Hopefully system can be set to detect two events before alarming.

I am building a new house and a granny flat The alarm will consist of wired system and external bell box aswell internal bell box. Alarm pack with keypad and fob for the house. - 2 keypad and fob (one for upstairs and downstairs) - 4 pir sensors (pet friendly) - two door sensors (front door and back door) - one 7m rear sliding door (door sensor?) However I have a detached garage which have a granny flat above which I aim to rent out. The garage which will be linked with house alarm system. 1 x pir sensor 1 x door sensor 1 x roller door sensor But I would like the granny flat to have its own zone linked with house alarm. (If that is possible) when my tenant is in flat…

Hi, Our alarm has been giving us problems for about 2 weeks. It indicates an intermittent problem with the PA and low battery - the alarm goes off intermittently as well. we have changed the battery in the main control panel and the PA. We have inherited this system and have done nothing with it apart from keeping the PA to hand (and changing the batteries), it has never been armed. What advice can you give? We would be happy to disconnect the thing and switch it off completely - but when I try (by removing the fuse) the outside alarm goes off. Please help - it is driving us nuts especially during the night when it goes off for no reason. One thing - this probl…

Hi i have a Galaxy 2-20 control panel, i don't know the engineering code , can any one help me how to factory reset the panel? thanks

Hi, I installed risco cpx with novaguard 2 years ago, would anyone know what onboard battery (nimh I dthink)oes novaguard 6 comes with?is it 6v or 8.4 volts?my cpx panel is asking me this. The reason I am asking is because in logs I get Nov 1 chg(ma) Hi and Nov 1 on-chg Hi even though all the parameters are correct,not sure if this could be to do with me not setting the correct battery volts. the error in logs have been there since day 1 but last last I had a false alarm and in log it said " external bell tamper" and I want to just rule the volt setting out. Thanks

Hi A friend of mine has bought a shop with a g3 alarm panel. Nobody knows the codes to use the alarm. I have tried various engineer codes but none work. Is there a way round this or is it a new main panel job. Thanks

Cannot get the Panel to do what the manual says it should on Power Up and Walk Test. I only have the Entry/Exit door switch wired to the panel to ensure easy diagnosis.

Hi I spoke to someone this afternoon but didn't catch the name as I was on the mobile. The issue is I have a Scantronic 8136 that's dead in the water. The keypads report the right time, and the alarm company is able to dial in and see the log. Engineer came today and said it looks pretty likely we need to change the panel. Whe I spoke to you this afternoon, couldn't hear very well what you told me on the phone about what the problem might be (doing school run at the time). I would be happy to replace the panel given reported quality issues. Please advise in writing which panels would be suitable for a swap out, with minimal wiring changes, no rewiring…

I have replaced an old Optima panel, (18 years old) with a new Optima Compact. All works fine except the LED in the PIR does not flash like they used to when I walk into a room and the alarm is not set. You can still hear the relay click in the PIR. Only the panel wiring has been touched. Any suggestions what to check as I have already checked the wiring, or does the new Optima panel work slightly different than the old one. Robin

I am looking for a home alarm system for both security and fire / carbon monoxide There are three bedrooms on the top floor, downstairs there is a hallway leading to the front door, a combined lounge / dining room 25m2 with windows at either end, kitchen with door to outside and a bathroom with a large window. The lounge will need to have a carbon monoxide detector fitted as it will contain a log burner. I would like to be able to mount the control unit away from the key pad and may in the future wish to add another keypad to go in the kitchen. I am very happy to have a wired system and install it myself as the whole house is being renovated at the moment but would w…

I am currently installing an alarm/fire system in my home and have a few questions someone may kindly answer: 1. Does the Eurosec CPX have a built in dialer to call in the event of an alarm (so all I do is add a bt line) and if so does it tell you what the alarm is i.e zone, fire, intruder etc. 2. What type of cable should I use for the smoke heat detecors - normal alarm cable? 3. What smoke heat detecors are compatable with the Eurosec CPX? 4. The alarm unit will be mounted in a seperate room only accesable from outside (it's a outside utility room) although the utility room is secure would it be better to have the main unit within the house? 5. Finally, can you …

HI can you tell me when or if you will have the new Agility panel from Risco. Thanks

I bought a Texecom IMPAQPlus from you back last year and you gave me help with the wiring for double EOL, unfortunately my builders have pulled the wires out and I can't remember how to wire it, I know I had to put a wired link in, please can you remind me on how it should be wired. Thanks

I am comparing the Galaxy Dimension with the G2-20 and G2-44 panels. Somewhat ironically, I cannot find the dimensions of the Dimension control panel box. Do you have this information (assume the GD-48 if other variants are larger)? And can the the inputs on all three panels (G2-20, G2-44 and GD-48) be expanded through adding a card into the main control panel box or is it necessary to fit another box? Thanks Tim

Hi Guys, I recently bought a Visonic Powermax Express as a replacement panel for my PowerMax Pro - after 6 years it decided to give up the ghost. Anyway, GSM Network is pretty weak in my village - I'm getting it sorted BUT I can't seem to set my system with the fault? I could with my PowerMax Pro, it'll still set the system, but yet this one won't? Am I missing something? The system currently says NOT READY and looking in the trouble log, it says GSM Network Failure. No other faults. Any advise would be a great help? Regards, Michael

Will Eaton I-ON40H panel work with Rapier 6510 sounder? Is there a cloud subscription fee to pay for Eaton I-ON40H e.g. for image verification emails?
