Intruder Alarms

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 want to add a magnetic lock that released when the panel is unset. I see there are 2 outputs on the Premier 48 both that can take 1A but this seems alot. is it really ok to wire directly on to the pannel without needing a relay. Im thinking of running the SSP Mini Magnetic Lock unmonitored on the door conserned. if I do need a relay do you have a prepackaged one with power supply etc? Any help apprecated. Rob

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

Hi, I would like to fit a driveway alert (preferably wireless) so probably a narrow beam pir type thing, plus a gate openining alert. Basically when the gate opens or someone walks in the drive I would like a buzzer to go off inside the house. Is there an idiots kit?

DOES ANY ONE HAVE A WIRING DIAGRAM FOR INSTALING DUAL COM

I have semi decieded to purchase/install an MDT alarm system and will be connecting a stand alone autodialler also I have used Texecom speech only recently but am curious if there is an easier to use alternative available? Do all autodiallers require you to record a message during installation or are there variants that come with pre recorded messages? Thanks in advance

Eaton I-on 10-50 Zone Expandable control panel https://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/intruder-alarm-equipment-c-36/security-control-panels-c-36_102/110-input-zone-small-c-36_102_101/eaton-ion-1050-zone-expandable-control-panel-p-5752.html Will this work with radio smoke detectors? Is this compatible with manual fire alarm call points? And finally will this need some sort of relay box to work with a speech dialer? Thanks.

Just bought a eco1002 fire sensor to add to my accenta mini g4 but cant figure what to wire to what Can anyone help pair them up Thanks

Hello I'm after 3 off Elmdene Panic Buttons, model ELM-PA-G3-W Would securitywarehouse supply these (not current listed stock) , or can you recommend somewhere. Thanks

Hi how can i set the system to make a sound every time the door is opened( Honeywell control box)? thanks

Hi, i set my passage as an entry/exit zone type with the connector on the front door, when i set the alarm i get the exit tone then the system sets, but on retrurning to the property instead of sounding the entry tone allowing me time to put in my code - it triggers the alarm setting off the siren, how can i solve this? thank you daniel

I am currently using standard 2 wire (common tamper) and have linked the unused zones which seems to be working but the engineer manaul says 9(eol) wiring is more secure, I am thinking of changing it to use eol wiring(I am using eurosec PIR without fault or mask terminal), if I do this then it would leave me 2 unused zones plus unused tamper(which becomes 9th zone), do I need to link them as before or do I need to link them using some 4k7 resistors as the other zones? also in the engineer manual it says you should select 9(eol) in the wiring option(page 23 of manual) and then normal (standard gardtec wiring configuration without mask or fault detection) but then it says i…

I have to purchase the following equipment for a new house which already has cabling installed for an alarm system. 6 x Dual-tech PIRs (because of the geometry of the rooms some of these will be facing a window, which I can do nothing about) 1 x Door contact 1 x 8+ Control panel 1 x Keypad 2 x Internal sounders 1 x External sounder 1 x Bell box Plus anything else that will be required that I've not mentioned. I have identified the following:- PIRs - Scantronic 460; Honeywell Intellisense DT7550A & Eurosec V40DT Control panels (& keypads) - Scantronic 9651EN-43 & ADE Accenta MetalGen4 with LCD keypad (8SP419A) Are you able to:- 1)say which of…

Hi, I have bought these Quest Pirs and they do not seem to pick up well enough. has anyone had the same problem? Rav

Hi, i am wondering if anyone could tell me what the bell terminals are on the euro 12 board and also could i use a euro mini keypad on this system ? thanks liam

Hi all I'm new to this forum, so please excuse my lack of technical knowledge. A couple of days ago I was moving stuff around under my staircase where I have an Alarm panel covered inside its metal casing. I'm certain I did not touch it, suddenly the house alarm went off and the Keypad panel was showing Bell fuse fault. I went ahead and replaced the bell fuse and it but it kept blowing. I had the alarm engineer who installed it come round and he disconnected all wiring to the PCB and still fuse kept blowing. The engineer has currently rewired the bell box to another connection on the PCB allowing me to still set the alarm but I have to say 'yes' to the fault to get to the…

Hi all I received my exchange from yourselves and today installed the new unit. The keypads now turns on unlike before. Just to recap i have connected to the system 3 x Pir`s and 1 door contact. 1 x 16ohm external speaker connected to the system 1 x Keypad connected to the system. 1 x Lan card connected. I turned the system on for the first time there were no sounds and the keypad behaved as expected. The Keypad states Euro 46 but not Euro 46 V10 like in the manual also the time and date adjusted itself, i assume this is because the Lan card is installed and had connection to the internet? More importantly i started to go through …

hi i have installed a castle care alarm with digi-modem1200 and i was wanting it to send a text message when the alarm goes off.i have put sms message in format in program digi/sms settings but it does not send text message when alarm is activated.the mobile numbers are correct in settings. thanks

Hi, Forgive me if this is very obvious, but I am new to wired alarms and just want to confirm in case all goes wrong... We purchased the Castle Euro Mini alarm from you recently, we are looking at installing it but had a query, if we want to wire more sensors than we have inputs in the unit, can we wire them in parallel in the same way you would wire the Tamper circuit in double pole wiring? then if so, is there a limit or recommended maximum for sensors and cable lengths etc? Our other question, due to it's position, we purchased a duplicate genuine alarm box (not a dummy). should these be wired in together to the same terminals or is there another way? …

Just reduced the volume on the keypad by pressing and holding D then typing code 2000 to get into keypad menu. Adjusted to volume 1 and the sound reduce as this was completed. Pressed A to save and exit but keypad is frozen and no button works now. I can’t reset using numbers, proximity tag, key fob or app as access is denied. Need advice as to get the alarm working again. Help please.

Hello I have recently installed a Eurosec CPX system and was wondering if you have to add eol resistors to standard secware SC517 door contacts? Thanks in advance

Has anyone got an engineers/installation manual for the Eurosec CPX. I had one installed 4 years ago, but want to see if I can amend the timings etc. Also might be getting a system for my father, but installing it myself. Thank you

Is it possible for the main board to become wiped?? The alarm has been installed and was working fine for 2 years until a kitchen refit company decided to cut through three of the cables. (the cable between the control unit and the key pad was NOT cut) I've reconnected the cut cables, and initially the display read "Fuse/Bat Fault" - sure enough the Aux1 fuse had blown so I've replaced this. Now the remote keypad will light up when you power on, but there is no text on the display. I've checked the 3 fuses again, and that there is power to the PCB (17v) and that the power is reaching the keypad (12v) Any ideas on what else to try?? Could a wiring …

Eurosec CPX Panel & LCD KP, I have a site with wired detectors/door contacts/sounder + 2/3 wireless detectors so was thinking of this panel. What wireless PIR's/Door Contacts will suit and is there anything else u require for the wireless PIR's/Door Contact to communicate with the CPX, or is the CPX all set up to accept wirelss detectors ? What about the G-Tag, is this already built in to the KPads, so all u require are the Keyfobs ? Scantronic Homelink 55 Hybrid with LCD KP - as above basically, can u mix Wired/Wireless detectors etc. thx Mark.
