Intruder Alarms

I have got risco cpx and at times it would reboot itself, sometimes it could restart in 5 minutes and at time it can go on for days without doing it, I have seen it doing it and when it does happen the external bell will go off for 2-3 seconds and the panel will come up with default date/time, the only thing I can see in the log is watchdog reset. I am getting concerned now, not sure what could be wrong, if this was to do with any pir then it should have reported it but don't thing any pir could bring this down (or could it) I am after advice on how to troubleshoot this? but because this problem may go away for days I won't even know if whatever I have done would fix …

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…

Hi Security Warehouse, I have been trying to re-commission my SD1+ after it being disconnected for several months. However, I cannot enter any 'user code' because buttons 1,2 and 3, (also A), do not respond when pressed. I would appreciate your help please. Regards, Chris Wills.

Hi, The strobe light in my Reson8 Bell Box will not stop flashing after fitting my new Mini Gen4 control panel. I've tried everything & double, triple & quadruple checked the wiring, spent hours trying to fathom it out, but it still flashes. I've had to disconnect the -strobe wire to stop the flashing. My conclusion is that there must be a fault with my new Mini Gen4 panel. Have you any thoughts please? Thanks David

I Think that I require, Control panel (can be hidden under stairs) 1-off Nice looking Lcd keypad (for front door) 1-off keypad (for rear door) 3-off wired Quad PIR for inside 2-off wired Dual tech PIR for outhouse (extreme cold/heat). 3-off internal Door contacts. 1-off garage Door contacts. Panic Button Txt or voice dialler Listen in function Dial in to arm/disarm would be nice or over web via phone? It would be good if the alarm had wired and wireless zones in case I need to upgrade after the floors went down I really like the Honeywell Galaxy Dimension GD-48C with Touchsceen Keypad Kit, but is it over kill? What would you get? Thanks in advance…

Hi, I bought a sensor scantronic 714REUR but i not able to associate with the central Homelink 75. I followed the steps in the manual: enter the menu to acquire the unit and then trigger the tamper on the sensor. The red activity led flashes regularly but not response from central. Other sensor i bought (738REUR) work correctly Thanks Stefano

Hi, I received delivery of the MCS-710 a week ago. Upon installation the test button sounds the siren after 5 seconds, but it will not enrol with the Visonic Powermax base. There does not appear to be any wireless transmission. Regards

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

Hi I have been going on at my folks for years to get an alarm system. My father is competent with electrical wiring, but I am clueless with alarm systems and compatibility issues. Can someone kindly reccommend a system or components for a system to cover the following specification that I've worked out: Bell box - tamperproof, foam resistant Internal audible quad alarm (my father is semi deaf) 4 pet friendly pirs - one fat labrador 100 m white cable Control panel - that can programme the four zones, door contact and garage contact - all armed for vacant house or some armed for occupied bedtime/overnight User friendly Lcd keypad (large text display if possible) t…

support/Elaine, is the 2.1Ah rechargeable battery included with 9448EUR-95 STYLE? thanks

Hi, I self-installed a Euro Mini about a year ago. I have two keypads installed, one upstairs and one downstairs. It's been working fine since I installed it but now its giving me error 485 COMMNS LOST. Neither of the keypads respond. If I open the panel box or the keypad to fault find, the tamper alarm will sound and I have now way of overriding it! 1. Any ideas what would cause this problem (error 485)? Does the keypad or panel have a keypad fuse? If so would a blown fuse cause this error? 2. Without a working keypad, how do I override the tamper alarm? Thanks in advance.

Hi I am trying to get an MRnode to connect to an M800 all wired up and everything seems ok, it is detected on start up. I am removed the cover of the MRnode pressed the select button to go into learn mode, and tried to link a 702 wrist transmitter all seems correct, one completing the learn I have put the cover back on to take the MRnode out of learn mode, but as soon as this happens I get an alert from the panel saying Lost device (or something along those lines) and the MRnode doesn't show on the network! Any ideas?? Thanks Richard

Hello SecurityWarehouse I still havent got a bellbox for my system yet (Accenta G4)... I was thinking of getting one that is hardly visible and I wanted quality so I thought of Texecom! I have been looking at their Odyssey's and I think the 4E does just that. On your website, you have the Odyssey 4 and the Odyssey 4E live backplates in either clear or blue. If I was to get a "clear" 4E live backplate will the strobe lens be clear along the outside or blue? Basically the strobe is around the edge of the unit and I would like to know if that wrap around strobe reflector blue or clear? Its just i've seen pictures and some…

Hi, I am looking for some help and advice with selecting an alarm system for the house I am currently renovating. It is a four bedroom house with an external garage which I would also like protecting. I would prefer a wired system as from my experiences at work, I am not fully convinced of the reliability of wireless technology! I am nearing the first-fix stage so now is the time to start planning the alarm system. I am an industrial electrician and plan to install it myself but I have no prior experience of alarm systems or installation. Here are my thoughts so far: 1.) A colleague recommended Bosch Blue Line BLD-P sensors, what do you guys think? Would one of these…

Hi, I seem to have my Gen 4 almost working as desired with my existing BG (DSC) equipment, however for the life of me I cannot seem to get the strobe light working. The Bell will work but not the strobe. The existing bell box wires where listed as (+) Red, (-) Black (which I have hooked both of these up to the bell connectors), AUX = Blue and Strobe = Green. Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

hi can you please tell me if you get full programming book with this panel. thanks
