Intruder Alarms

Intruder alarms, programming, design advise, detector selection.

  1. We moved into our house previously without pets but with one of the above alarm panels. I need to replace three PIR with pet friendly ones. You advertise the Scantronic 430, is this compatible with the 9450 panel. Also I wanted to install a dialler but it seems that you are out of stock of all diallers. If there is one that is compatible with my control panel could you please let me know. Also I would like a clue as to how to wire up the dialler to my panel.

    Hi, Could you please confirm if the following batteries are suitable for the Optima Compact Gen4 and if they will fit into the enclosure ok? They are both made by Yuasa but one is cheaper, so what's the difference and which is the better one? http://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=350 or this: http://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1339 Also, could you please confirm if you have both the Optima compact in stock and either of the above two batteries? Finally, if I order today, when can I expect delivery? Thank you

I have gone through the programs ,program 1 does everything,program 2 i have set up to just do downstairs.

    I have fitted the above on a upc window. 1. the led is continuously flashing. Is this correct? 2. The unit is fitted to the position A at right hand side of the frame and will alarm on tapping the right hand panel but not when tapping the left hand panel. Are two units required on the window frame?

  5. We have a customer looking for an outdoor 433MHz wireless PIR detector to add to our V003 GSM wireless alarm system. We don't offer accessories so wondered if you have something that may be suitable.

  6. i am after a scan 9943 with 5 or 6 remotes. Will the keypad pair up ok with a 9930. How much is a 9941 & 9943 & fobs

  7. I have purchase from Security Warehouse an ADE Honeywell Easy Set Unit with an ADE Honeywell Accenta Metal Gen 4. The instructions for the Easy Set provide Wiring Details for connection to a G3 and an Accenta 8 Panel, but there is no wiring and program changes for a Gen 4. How is the wiring configured and what program changes are necessary. Our Reference Secware 3 sent 19.45 on the 5th of November.

  14. Started by timmo,

    I have a texecom premier which has alarmed but I cannot re set it as it looks like it may need an engineers code. Is there some way of re booting it to put it back to factory default codes. If not, rather than call out the alarm company is it possible to just replace the control panel. Do I need to replace the local lcd keypad as well. If I disconnect the control panel to replace it will the external siren go off? Regards

We need: 5 PIRS 1 key pad 3 door detectors 2 external bells (preferably) 1 dummy box 1 internal sounder and about 200m of cable No need for distinct key codes or anything like that. Thanks

  16. I think I need 11 zones: Kitchen door (E/E) Front Door (E/E) Workshop PIR Garage PIR Lounge (Pet Friendly PIR) Hallway 1 (Inhibited Pet Friendly PIR for E/E) Hallway 2 (Pet Friendly PIR) Bedroom 1 (Pet Friendly PIR) Bedroom 2 (Pet Friendly PIR) Dining room (Pet Friendly PIR) Kitchen (Inhibited Pet Friendly PIR for E/E) 1 x RKP External Sounder Is there a system/ kit that will do this (Honeywell Galant? - is this panel obsolete?) or can I link multiple PIR's to use the 8 zone kit as advertised Honeywell ADE LCD Accenta 4 x Pet PIR Starter Kit

  18. i'd like to fit an alarm system into my double garage but am not sure which is the right kit to fit. I've installed a Texecom into my house which i'm very happy with so ideally would like to use their kit again if possible. I'd like to keep the house and garage system completely seperate. By my reckoning i need 1 x control pannel with keypad for in the garage 1 x remote keypad for in the house (incase of false alarm activation) 2 x suitable garage PIRs 1 x remote control (for controlling from the car as the doors are remote controlled also) 1 x red LED flashing external light to show alarm is set 1 x external strobe to show alarm has been activated 1 x internal…

  20. I am sorry to bother you again. Can you tell me please is it possible to get a wireless sender and receiver to fit inside the VERITAS R8 control panel as we have a garage that was alarmed that way as it is detached from the house and the old wireless sender is not compatible with your system. Also is there a code to open the panel to replace the battery as the installer took all the installation notes with him and he has gone to Australia for 3 months so i cannot contact him.

  21. I have just purchased the rs232 remote programmer but it is saying that I need to enter installer mode to access this. The main reason I bought the pack was because I could not get the installer option on the menu and I have forgotted the installer code. I have already tried a master reset but to no avail. Please could you advise if you are able to assist.

  22. Having just been burgled I have purchased a KX15DATM pir from you to replace a failing unit from a different manufacturer. The existing unit is connected via 6 cables - 2x Tamper, 2x Relay and 2x 12v. Do you know what connectors the cables need to be screwed into on the KX15 please? I may also have to change some of the dip switches? The control panel is an Accenta 8.

  23. Please could you tell me the replacement for the Scantronic 4600r wireless burglar alarm system? I'm not sure if my control box is faulty (although there is a significant chance that this is the case) or if one of the window/door vipers is faulty, but my system is 13 years old, and I think it may need to be changed.

  24. My current alarm Guardall Rascal Super is broken so needs replacing(we are using 4 programmed zones and chime). I'd like to replace the control unit unit and bellbox but use existing wiring, sensors and internal speaker. I'm looking at the MDT Avanti 8 and AG6 bellbox (current bellbox looks tatty and has no strobe). 1. Is the chime quite loud? We would like to hear if someone enters the house from the other side of the building. 2. The Rascall Super system is 12v and I think the Avanti 8 is 13.8v, will our existing sensors work with the new control unit?

  25. have just installed my new control panel everthing working fine, just won't let me change the four digit code, have gone through the instructions given in user manual but it still only lets me use the factory set code to set the alarm,could you please give me some advice to correct this problem.
