Intruder Alarms

Intruder alarms, programming, design advise, detector selection.

  1. Hi, I already have wired system with panel, 6 wired PIR and bell. I'm unsure what make/model existing panel is, but what I'd like is new panel to do is: - allow remote access to arm,/disarm and check alarm status (web/app/gsm) - connect existing wird PIR and bell (if possible) - have ability to set different zones. Currently have home zone and garage zone. When out and about we arm both zones; when home we arm just garage zone. - allow new wireless devices to be added Thanks,

    We are Electrical Contractors (had products from SW in the past) normally install bells only systems but we have been asked us to replace an old system. (monitoring not required)customer ideally want a hard wired system planning to use Pyronix KX15DT`s and Pyronix Databell Plus My question is what would be a suitable control panel 8 zone minimum with 2 RKP`s which will allow programming etc with a Smart or Android phone ? Thanks Richard

  3. Hi I need a full system. The main building requires 9 zones and there is an outbuilding within 15 yards of the main building which has mains power and requires 2 zones. I believe that for the outbuilding I need a wireless expander as I do not want to fit wireless sensors. The main building is suitable for a wired setup. I would appreciate some guidance on a suitable, cost effective control panel and accessories.

  4. i am looking to buy control panel witch can accommodate 8 pir and auto dialer and i would also like to buy autodialer (speech dialer with at lease 5 numbers ) and if possible fob entry system with 4 key fob's

  5. I need Reed switch for a motorized door shutter to detect if it is closed properly. What model do you suggest?

    Hi, The remote keypad I have found that the number 7 is sticking in the depressed position. I have been trying to press and release repeatedly to see if it will free up. Any tips ?? Regards Jan

  7. I'm looking for a wired alarm. I was interested in Veritas R8, but seems this model do not offer a feature i need. I would like the remote keypad to continuously display the state of each zone, with no sound, even when the alarm is turned off (i would like the control panel to behave by default as a silent alarm, and activate sounders when i switch the alarm ON). Do you have any alarm control panel that propose such feature? thx

    Hello, I have a wired fire and intruder alarm system, with the main hub in my house. The sensors are in a recording studio at the end of my garden. The fire/smoke sensor, above my recording desk is inaccessible and has failed. As the wires are inaccessible, I want to replace it with a wireless option. What do you suggest?

  17. I have a customer with a broken Veritas 8C controller. They have 2nd remote R8 keypad. If I install a new Veritas V8C controller is the old 2nd keypad compatible?

  18. I built my house 17 years ago with a wired alarm system. The six core wiring is inside the wall panels etc. Over the years I have replaced a couple of PIRs etc but now some of the other components are starting to fail (e.g. some parts of the LED displays do not show etc). I was looking to use the existing wiring and replace the control panel, two keypads and the external siren with the following: ADE Honeywell Accenta Mini Gen4 with LED Keypad Secware 12v 0.8A/h Value Alarm Battery (assuming the Mini Gen4 does not include a battery) ADE Honeywell LCD Keypad for Optima / Accenta Control Panels Honeywell ActiveGuard AG6 External Siren Blue. Inc White Cover Is this feasib…

  19. Require a ADE G3 Accenta Remote Control Pad that works in conjunction with a Jenko board. Would the current offering which you offer [ADE G3 - 4] that works with a Optima Board work with the Jenco board?

  20. Hi i brought galaxy g2 alarm panel from your store.i am going to add second mk7 keypad to the system.according to installation menual i need to use eol 680 ohm resistor at each keypad and connect them in daisy chain. Please can you tell me what watt resistors require. thanks

  21. I'm fairly sure I can interface the Reson8 bell box to an old RS alarm Panel I installed many years ago. The panel has (in order) + Hold off, - Hold off, -SW, +SW, -ExB, -ST-, + IntBell, - IntBell, +Buzz, -Buzz, -Tamp(Zone1),+Tamp(Zone1) Basically I cannot see how to connect the Tamper supply- and Tamper return- in the Wiring diagram. I am sticking with the wiring colours. I know it's quite serviceable.

    I had some difficulty with the, Honeywell Reson8 Bell Box during install at the weekend, i could not get SCB functionality to work, i initially thought the wiring may be damaged so i took the box to the control panel with a short cable and tried again, to no avail, the circuit on the sounder does not seem to react when the spring is depressed, and the case is shut. and the Green Indicator does not come on at any point. I have managed to use the sounder as sounder and strobe only, but wondering if there is anything else i can do to resolve, as the customer would like the lights on the sounder to flash and show the box is live.

    I am fitting a new intruder alarm system to my house, and want to utilise the wired sensors, etc I already have. However I want to have remote control operation as well. To achieve this I am looking at the Galaxy G2-12 panel with wireless expander (RF Portal) and wireless remote controls. Is the wireless module compatible wiht the G2-12 or do I have to move up to the G2-20?
