    Hello all, appreciate some help here, i have 4 pir sensors and a ADE Accenta Mini Gen4 panel, how should i wire the pir sensors in series? or should i wire each pir back to the panel? thanks for the advise!

  2. Hi, how is this alarm armed and disarmed? Does the alarm come with all of the parts to mount it to a wall? How loud is the alarm? We have an external light which sometimes comes on at night if our neighbour walks into his garden, would this light coming on at night time trigger the alarm? i look forward to hearing from you.

    Hi I am installing a accenta Gen 4 system .Its for a residential home for people with learning difficulties. Basiacllly they want the doors to chime and light up on the key pad until reset or another door opens . So the light is on pretty much all the time regardless of the door then being shut I am thinking of installing your "Elmdene EN3 QFC Grade 3 flush contacts red resistor " I just want to know whether these are compatible with the system . Ie I am not going to install them then a fault comes up on the keypad

  4. I am planning to import a comprehensive Visonic Power G2 System with many detectors into Germany. I understand that all components of the system have to be UK components in order to be compatible. Before ordering I need answers to the followings questions: Can the language of the Power Master 30 panel be changed from English to German? Will the Power Master 30 panel with the GSM-350 PG2 and the Powerlink 3 modules be able to communicate with Visonic’s PowerManage IP/GPRS-based Security Management Platform installed at a German central monitoring station? Will the alarm data and other data transmitted by the Power Master 30 panel to the CMS also be in German? Would I hav…

  10. Hello there, Could you, please, help me finding which of your system would be most suitable for my needs? I am looking for alarm system for the house and 2 wooden bike sheds 7 meters from the house. The system for house can be wired, the system for sheds must be wireless. The house system will need 5 PIRs, one of them should tolerate a tortoise (25cm, 2 kg, in a heated enclosure in the hall), 2 door contacts, 2 sensors for windows (breaking glass or vibration?). There are both, a land line and GSM cover, in the house. The system for the sheds should probably have 1 door contact and 1 PIR for each shed, PIRs could maybe replaced by vibration sensors attached directly t…

I have stored a number of items in my cart and I would appreciate some advice as to whether these are all compatible or if there are better alternatives available that would work with the main system.

    I have an A083-01 that was working fine in a Galaxy Flex 20 up until about a month ago when the panel started to report line failures. Despite several resets of both the Internet and the panel, the error would come back within an hour or so (line fail sensing). The diagnostics on the panel report that the comms are all good. The LEDs on the A083 also suggest everything is OK (Green on 0.1, off 0.9 sec) Orange intermittent = ethernet. If I disconnect the 435 cable I get an immediate error on the panel, so it is being detected OK.I’ve replaced the Ethernet cable, used a different IP address etc, all without change.However, I cannot communicate in or out via the unit. Rather…

    , I have an older alarm panel that does not need EOL resistors. Is there a way to use this device without the EOL resistors selected as a normally closed circuit like traditional alarm circuits? Before I had the texecom AED 0001 which is fine but this new replacement talks about EOL resistors built in in the literature. I just want to know if it is compatible with the texecom veritas panel which doesn't use EOL

  17. Started by Secware,

    I'm having some problems in getting the CQR SC517 to work with the Premier Elite 48 panel. 5 contacts work as intended and they are setup the way that I cut T1,T2 and the red wires giving the correct restiance towards the Texecom (Double Pole / EOL), in Wintex they work perfectly. 10 contacts do not work, gap is the same between the contact and the magnet 6-10 mm. The do not work, same resistors are cut. In Wintex they report tamper alarm. Any ideeas ?

  20. Hi - I have a Scantronic 500r+ wireless alarm system - and need to add a new movement detector sensor to the system for our kithen. Ive looked on your website and there seem to be a number of different movement detectors that go with Scantronic wireless systems - so wondered if you could advise which one would be best to add to out system. Our present detectors are all square-ish - and there are a couple that look similar - but could you pl let me have a model no I should order? Could you either pl email me or leave a message on the above mobile. Thanks.

  22. Hi, So it's 1:49am, my husband is at work and I can't get hold of him. my 9800 alarm is saying battery fault and keeps going off every few minutes. My daughter is stood by the pin pad in tears whilst i desperately try to find a solution - is there anyone who can help? I feel sick and I'm shaking! I don't know if it's going off outside. The company who installed it have gone out of business and I don't know who to ring and there's no user manual anywhere, I can't find much online either. I'm in north Kent, any help would be so gratefully received. Thank you

    Hi, Some advice please? Can you suggest which pet friendly PIRs are suitable for use with Scantronic 9448 panel which I am looking to purchase. Need a very compact PIR and noted the Texacom compact but is this only suitable for wireless systems as I noted from a search on the web that it uses a battery?
