The instructions for this unit says that if the settings are changed the unit must be reset at the control Panel. I purchased these units to replace my existing unit and therefore do not have a Honeywell control unit or any functionality to reset PIRs. Can you tell what the reset process is? The anti - mask function, sounds a bit like anti-tamper, do you see any reason why the anti tamper and anti-mask relay out puts cannot be connected in series and both be in the anti-tamper circuit?

I am a building contractor with a number of sites in operation. I am interested in the GJD GSM Autodialler or Pyronix V2 GSM. Can these products be used as standalone alarm units. Can PIRs be connected directly to this unit or do I have to integrate this with an alarm control panel?

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

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

Hi, I have recently naively purchased and installed a powermaster 33 alarm unit along with the IP Powerlink 3 module and a camera PIR. I thought it would be as simple as install, get it working, attach to the network and link with the app. I see this in not the case. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I have done some more googling and found from the visonic website links to the powermanage and powermaster interactive side of things. They mention having a CMS or remote management company... I just want to run some software from my Mac(which is on all the time) and access via the app... Any advice grateful Thanks

Have Risco removed the ability to show the status on the LCD keypad? I've made sure that the Keypad is installed onto the system, but when I go into the Programming Custom Screens menu, It shows LCD Status = None. When I say NO, it just moves on to LED Status, and doesn't give me the option to change the setting to Full (for status always on) or Set/Unset which it always used to!! Is there another setting I need to alter first before I'm allowed to change the "display the status" setting?? Any help appreciated

hi i bought a dsc power832 alarm off of ebay about 3 years ago and have just got around to fitting it and realised that the installer code i was given is wrong. it's badged as british gas and apparently they had them made with there own defualt engineer codes. anyway i want to use as much of this old alarm as possible before i scrap it and so i was going to buy the ADE Accenta Mini Gen4 with LCD Keypad that you have for sale. my question is will the dsc pir's work with this ok? (i'm assuming yes) and also i see that it requires a 2.1ah 12v battery. my old alarm has a 12v 7.0ah battery so the voltage is the same. but by the looks of pictures they seem to be a diffe…

Do you supply a vandal resistant keypad that has either a USB or RS232 interface. USB is preferred. I think that the Storm 1000 keypad does have an RS232 output. Can you confirm this,and could you get stock of this item if you do not already ? Thanks in advance.

I have a Scantronic 9651 bought from you a few years ago. It's worked fine till the PA alarmed the other morning for no reason - i.e. it wasn't pressed. I put a new battery in it Feb 2014, probably the last time I opened it up. When I put the engineer's code in, in order to open up the PA to check it, rather than going into engineer mode it said "User code reqd". Odd?! Anyway, I then put the User Code in and it said "Set". This is not normal behaviour - any ideas? Thanks,

Hi, I am looking to upgrade my home alarm system and after reviewing your forum have a few questions that I hope you can help me with so that I order to correct system (and compatible components). Essentially, I have a new build with the developer fitted DCS Alarm branded as British Gas which seems to not meet any of my requirements. Basically I am hoping to upgrade this to something more usable and compatible with pets i.e. something that I can adjust zones (regions) as I see fit as the dog is quite large. I have contacted 3 of the larger installers in my area and given that two never kept their appointment and the other quoted just under
