Intruder Alarms

TKC 12v DC Relay - Handy Little Relay can this function as a self actuating bell unit - ie: senses voltage failure and activates a relay to sound bell/trigger event? If not do you have such a unit?

I have an old (broken) Honeywell optima system and want to replace it with a new control panel, remote keypad, upgrade to the PIR sensors that are both microwave and I.R. and also have SMS alerts when there is an event, so I was looking at your website and saw you have a *lot* of things... just wanted to chat about what solution you could recommend. (I'm in the north west)

I'm new to this forum and although I tried to read several posts I'm not sure if I came across this topic. I'm thinking of buying the G2-44 for domestic use. On deciding which wired Motion Detectors to choose I'd like your opinion on which brand: Would you advise to stick with Honeywell products (such as the DT 7550A) or would other products such as Rokonet iWise DT15, Pyronix FPKX15DT3, Bosch TriTech, etc will do a better job and fit better with the system? I'm open to suggestions... Thanks!

I am trying to buy 25 pieces of the Yuasa NP7-12 buy your system restricts to only 5. Can you help?

I installed a system a year ago which I purchased from you and it seems to have developed a fault. Initially when a walk test was done it wouldnt identify some of the zones and then removed the cover from the unit and I cannot get rid of the cover tamper warning so cannot set the system. Do you think the control unit has gone U/S. steve

hi have euro mini castle caretec is there any pirs that can go in a bathroom?

Hi, I'm fitting a Honeywell Galaxy G2-20 at the moment (4th installation of the galaxy range) and usually would just fit a dialler however i saw the CSL Dualcom for sale on SW:- http://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2438 It says that the first years monitoring is included, i'm just wondering who the ARC is, how the registration is completed and the ongoing yearly costs. Thanks Peter

I am thinking about buying a le sucre alarm system. Could you please advise on the following. 1. Is it possible to set only ground floor sensors at night? 2. Can the system be connected to the phoneline as well as sim? 3. After the two year sim period where would the sim be purchased? Many thanks

Hello, we have just had an outside office built - detached from the house by 1m. We currently have an Accenta G3 hard-wired panel with three spare zones. If I purchase Texecom GEC-0002 Ricichet Expansion pack and three Ricochet PIRs, will it allow me to attach the three wireless detectors to the spare zones? Your advice would be most welcome.

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.

Hi, i'm looking to buy a wireless digital alarm system with at least 16 zones. i'll also need the contacts and pirs etc to go with it. Can you help?

On the verge of ordering the new Powermaster 10 kit from Visonic.Looks exceptional. Two questions if I may: 1) I understand that the line from the telephone master socket must connect to LINE. However is it crucial that the main telephone is connected to SET. I think this set-up allows the alarm to sieze the incoming call. Would it be possible to run the telephone off an extension socket or from the master socket itself. Also there is some info about RJ31X plug which gets over the problem- is this USA only? I also understand that the GPRS/GPS module gets over the problem 2)An IP camera is available in this system. Can this be accessed by the homeuser o…

can the Honeywell kit send email alerts? And does this connect to the the router ?. If so which one? Thanks

Hi, Im looking for additional replacement wireless sensors (contact and vibration) for a Risco WIsdom system, RWT62 (contact) and RWT6S (shock), you dont seem to have these in stock. Are there compatible replacements? I think they also be available under the Gardtec brand.

Please can anyone help resolve this problem with Intruder Alarm system Scantronic 9800+. (9827) In brief, there is a code showing as bF which I understand through d/loading the User manual means: battery fault on the control panel. The alarm has been going off several times a day for nearly a week and I disconnected the ringer several days ago but am too worried to open up the control panel in case it then goes off again and I can't press the code to stop the noise once the faccia is removed. However, I need to see inside in order to know what type of battery I need to buy to replace the present faulty battery. Any assistance would be very much appreciated since I h…

Do you do the optex detectors with optional heaters?

Hi guys, just a quickie. Can you tell if the the Visonic Powermax+ Quickfit Kit (inc Wireless sounder)kit has the dialler built in? Can you set and unset via your telephone after an activation and can it send you a text message to let you know when the alarm is set/unset? I can't find any spec online fort his product. If you could email me a link that would be just as good. Have a good evening. Dan.

Hi my home has been fitted with a scantronic 9651 system, it has p.i.rs in all down stairs rooms. The front and rear doors have surface mounted contacts. When I set the system and leave via my front door the alarm continues to beep and will not arm once I close the door. This has happened before and I was advised to replace the door contact which i did, this solved the problem until now! The same thing has happened again I have checked the contact and everything seems to be OK with no loose wires. The contact is grade 2 with a small circuit board inside, it also has a small spring tamper mechanism. Can anyone help? regards Steve

Hi I am adding a Honeywell 12v latching base to an Accenta Mini Gen4. How do I wire the N/O N/C and C terminals on the base for a Honeywell Combination Optical/ Thermal Smoke Detector?

I have a Visonic Powermax Wireless Alarm system installed. After changing the batteries on some of the PIR sensors, the system keep calling me at random saying "tamper alarm". Can somebody please advise how to clear all of the error messages so the system stops calling me.

I have a optima G3 panel which is faulty and am looking to replace. In order to simplify replacement would the circuit board from the G4 fit in place of the existing board? (fixings in both panels look to be the same)

If Risco equipment is no longer going to be available then could you recommend & send info on other makes that can perform the functions of Eurosec CPX & Gardtec 595 including the vo-comm speech dialling.

I had scantronic 9800 alarm system installed 20 years ago, working fine, my key pad box cover is broken which covers all the key pad, there is Scantronic 9827 key pad only which is on your website it says it is now obsolete, will this key pad is same as my 9800 key pad with the cover and work same as old key pad? If it is I would like to order ASAP.
