Intruder Alarms

Intruder alarms, programming, design advise, detector selection.

  1. Started by Secware,

    Hello! I have bought a nice second hand DSC wired panel (PC1864) and is looking for some detectors. I am among other things considering the https://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/rokonet-shocktec-with-magnet-white-p-620.html As I understand it this unit does not require any external analyzer card or anything and should work as any stand alone wired detector with my DSC right? I am thinking on using it for the doors on my house - do the main part of the detector in this case need to be mounted on the door itself or will it detect vibrations from break ins even if mounted on the frame? Do this unit have space internally to mount resistor? Do you have some install…

  2. I would like to know if you can help me specify a new system based on the Galaxy Dimension. I need it to be able to control 4 doors using mag locks / press to release. Video door entry integration and also intruder function. Proxy tag / swipe for enable/diable of the building alarm. I think I need a Galaxy Dimension GD-48 but need help with the other parts. You seem to be the best value and I need to make a purchase by next week at the latest.

  3. My system is showing a fault "Telecommand Batt Low" which refers to the 723r Telecmmand remote setting device. I have changed the batteries in the 3 telecommand devices I have however the system continues to show the error. I have moved the system into Engineer mode and it will not now exit. Going through the command set to exit Engineer Mode ie 99 tick, the systems goes through the "checking system bus" bit ok and after agreeing to "exit eng" the unit starts the "Checking System" routine and then flags up the "Telecommand Batt Low" problem again and will exit the Engineer Mode. How do I get out of this, as I say I have put new batteries in the remotes but this does not …

    Hi I would be interested in buying Visonic alarm system. However I am not clear on the PowerLink functionality. Do I have to have Visonic IPMP server installed separately to support PowerLink for exactly this: sending emails/MMS messages with pictures from connected cameras UPON alarm trigger.

  7. Hi I need to replace my current wired alarm system.. I have a mains wired alarm with wired connections. I have a couple of PIR's that are wired, which I see no reason to replace as the cables are hidden. I would like to add additional pirs wireless. I can see execom Kit 3 32 Zone Self-Contained Wireless Kit which looks like it can take 4 wired zones. So I could install this on my current set-up and add wirless pir's to additional rooms. I have a couple of questions. How is the alarm disabled. Is it on the control panel? I see it comes with 2xPremier Elite SmartKey. What exactly is this? Can this disable the alarm without having to put in a code? I have 2 children which I …

  8. Good morning, I am after some advice if I may please. I have a Galaxy Flex100 panel and we want to link up TWO touch centres to it. I believe on a standard panel we can only use one touchcentre. Is there any expansion modules or similar we can use so that both Touch Centres can be used on the system? Any advice greatly appreciated. Many thanks Neil Fearnley

    I’m currently considering renewing my current wired alarm system (9450) and increasing the zones to at least eight, as offered in the Secware ADE LCD Accenta 3x Optex Saver PIR starter kit. I’ll be exchanging the external bell sounder which this kit appears to accommodate all those requirements, I’d also like to exchange my two battery operated smoke sensors to wired units. What can you suggest or recommend any other?

    The 6 stand-by batteries in the main panel are not being trickle charged. Replacing them with fully charged new ones (1.37V) gets the system working correctly in all respects but only for approx 3 hours. The cells are then down to 1.2V off-load. Have you any information regarding the charging circuit that could allow me to investigate further and possibly repair? Your website indicates that the Homelink 75 is “sold out”. If I need to purchase a replacement system can you please recommend a suitable model Having had further time to think, it would seem logical to assume that the panel’s internal power supply is not producing anything at all - not just the battery charg…

  18. 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…

    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 ?

  22. Can anyone offer advice on programming the advanced modes of this dialer? I want to enable the option that modifies the dial out sequence such that each of the 4 numbers are dialled once in turn (default mode is for No.1 to be dialled 15 times before moving to No.2) The operation/introduction section of the manual suggests that this option is available, however I can't find the appropriate advanced programming mode/code for this option. Any advice would be appreciated Regards and TIA John
