Intruder Alarms

I see two mobile com modules TEXECOM. (type 0001-jae and cegb 001) What's the difference? There is a big price difference. I recently bought a 48 premier installation TEXECOM elite with you. The intention is that the alarm via mobile redirected to mobile. Additional question: To how many mobiles he can send the message and it is only a text message or voice?

Hello, I have just finished some work to tidy up the wiring on the Accenta Gen4 system fitted in my flat. Basically what I did was re-route a lot of the surface cabling under the floor, and also change a couple of the sensors. Now the system is up and running again it all seems to work fine, apart from the door contact. The door used to have a surface mounted Honeywell contact, and one of the changes I made was to swap that for a flush contact hidden in the doorframe (part is CQR FC508/WH). When I test the output from contact back at the panel with a multimeter is it fine; reads 2 Ohms with the door closed and then open circuit with the door opened. However…

Hello from Germany, I am going to buy a home-security-system from your shop and need some information on programming and controlling the system via PC. There is the Scantronic homelink 75 which seems to be connectable to PC via USB is there a control-software included in your package ? And second the Risco Wisdom - nothing to see about PC-connection and Software in you shop ? Would you please inform me about this two sets, thank you and regards Helmut

We're looking at a comms installation at an isolated site, which will also require an intruder alarm. There will be no landline phone but we anticipate installaing a 4G router which will provide both an Internet connection (WiFi and hardwired) and a phone line. The phone line will be derived from the cellular connection and we envisage using a UPS to keep the equipment going in the event of a power outage. The preference is for something that can alert the owner to an intrusion by dialling a series of phone numbers or by using SMS rather than by using a conventional. communcator and monitoring service. Remote Web maintenance is a requirement. Preference is for a system th…

Hi I am looking for a movement detector - nom 12v NC contacts - that I can site externally but functions as per an internal unit. Is there such an item available Thanks Steve

I have just purchased a Secware Optima 2 x PIR Full Kit, ADE Honeywell 8SP419A-UK control panel kit from this site, what do I need to do to program it to use one PRI sensor as it's going in a garage, PRI is on zone 2, with say a 10 second entry and exit time.

Attached is a wiring diagram for 'Double Pole', 'EOL' and using a Risco Guardtec CPX 'Zone Doubling' Conventional Double pole requires a pair for each part of the detection device, ie 'Alarm' and 'Tamper'. Wiring the Tamper Circuit as double pole will require a global tamper, this means that all devices with tamper protection are wired in series into the tamper connections of the control panel. Zone wiring is then wired normally straight into the relevant zone connection. This has the advantage of being simpler to understand, but has the disadvantage of a global tamper, ie being able to identify the device in tamper is impossible. Lower end panels only offer Double Po…

I have replaced an old Optima XM6 panel with a new Optima Compact panel The system works fine with program 1 My problem is I cannot get it to part set using program 2 I enter my code, the exit beep starts, but when I press the PROG key, the exit tone, that should stop, keeps going, so I can't get to select program 2 Tried reset to factory defaults but it did not help Thanks

Hi, I am trying to connect an AG6 sounder to an ADE Logic 6 panel (supplied by you) but the instructions supplied by both units are not clear and the AG6 instructions do not even conform to the suppied unit. The Logic 6 panel connections are - strobe - strobe + scb T scb A bell+ D bell- B The sounder AGL connections are - ST- R- SW- V+ V- Can you please advise how these should be connected

Dear Sir, I have just had a new kitchen fitted and wanted to move the old large alarm to the porch...I contacted the engineer who fritted the old alarm and with great difficulty, managed to get him back to help. He advised that the cheapest way would to hide the old alarm and run a small pad type of alarm to be on show...still in the kitchen. Tonight I had to run through the house in order to get out in time as the alarm started to go off. The engineer has not left me any instructions...simply saying it is like my old one.....It is not! Getting hold of this chap has been so difficult.....Could you send me a Manual.....On the alarm it s…

I have a Risco GT490X alarm fitted and have a couple of wired pir's and 1 or 2 wireless pir's. Can I add another outside alarm box? a wireless one?

Hello, I've just unpacked my second Sterling 10 remote LCD keypad, and found out that the little spring on the tamper switch is missing ( order 19838 ). this causes continue "Tamper" alarm on my central unit. Is it possible to send me a spare spring? Best regards, Robert.

In september last year i asked you a question if a oml-dam can be used as pir only with the mw disabled. You confirmed this with yes. I ordered 6 detectors which stein use in a residentiall environment for a small year now. During this year most of the detectors triggered a false alarm, some of them more than one. This makes the detectors very unreliable. In the same environment, the optex fx50sq performed much and much better being a lower end detector. So, do you know more about the unreliable function of the oml-dam as pir only? Is the pir only functionality in real world worser than the oml-am detector? Please help because even with those expensive and professional d…

We are looking to put together a scaffold alarm using dual beam sensors possibly 6 sets with a control panel and auto dialler. What can you suggest please?

Do the Honeywell sensors, external siren and tag reader with built-in siren communicate over encrypted rolling code? Do these - FG8M, DFS8M, CO8M, IR8M, IRPI8M, DO8M, SEF8M and SPR-S8EZ, etc. I know the fobs and panic buttons do. These do - TCC800M, TCPA1B, etc. I am using the Honeywell Evohome Security at the moment, that uses the Le Sucre+ box. Is the Le Sucre+ box and the SPR-S8EZ grade 2 EN50131, if they are not grade 2 EN50131 is the dominion a better control panel to use instead? I know the sensors, external siren, fobs and panic buttons are grade 2 EN50131.

can anyone provide list of kit for easy install and use of intruder alarm kit using tel communicator eg Informa speech dialler, key fob set/unset,can these things be used with control panel with onboard keypad if so which one and are they also compatible with each other.thanks jw

I am having difficulty making the low temperature output on my SD3 dialler work correctly. I would like the dialler to send me a text message when temperature drops below the alarm threshold. However, despite the "test outputs" suggesting all is functioning OK the unit does not seem to be triggering the alarm properly. I have it configured as follows: Output 3 is set to Temperature Low/ Negative Polarity Output 3 has single wire to Trigger C Triggers are set to (default) negative polarity Trigger C Alarm is routed to Contact 1 In Test Options switching on Output 3 gives correct "Trig C Alarm" in System Log In Test Options testing Trigger C correctly sends m…

Hi! I can't figure out if the wireless siren MCS 720 are compatible with Visonic PowerMax+ or not? Does MCS720 work with PowerMax+?

Hi I am trying to download technical manual for the Scantronic 9448 from your website, is it possible for me to do that? We need to change a battery on one of these systems,and have ordered one from your company, on order no:xxxx. Any information would be useful. Best regards

hey, I currently have an ademco accord security system installed in my flat and the transformer has stopped working. I have recently just purchased a scantronic 9448+ and i was wondering if i could take the new transformer from the scantronic and put it in the ademco system so i dont have to rewire the system? thanks in advance

Hi, We are a school with a primary, secondary & sixth form buildings, each with their own intruder alarm panel and we are looking for a fob which can be programmed to all 3 panels. I believe our panels are Honeywell Galaxy. Do you sell an alarm fob which can be programmed to multiple panels? I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi My 13 year old Omnicron 7000 panel has finally given up the ghost. I am looking for advice on a replacement which will require minimal changes to the wiring. Any suggestions very welcome. Paul

I require a wired alarm system supporting a minimum of 8 detectors with the following key characteristics: Ability to set/unset using the lock on the final exit door, eg using a Chubb 3G114 Single Pole Shunt Lock or similar If the alarm is activated the ability to disable the strobe (in addition to the sounder) after a predetermined period of time, so there is no external indication of the alarm having been triggered Can anyone please recommend the a control panel / sounder combination which is able to support this configuration Many Thanks KB

hi brought honeywell informa a while ago along with accenta g4 package. the problem is i can get the infroma to ring out in engineers mode but when the alarm is activated (set off) to see if it rings out it doesn't. the only time it works is when there is no power to the alarm mains or battery. i have connected the dialer to it dedicated connection and also to the +/- and the bell - but either way it still doesn't work. any ideas.

Do you sell both MCT-302 and MCT-302T? The information in the text on the site talks about both items but in the end it is indicated that you only sell MCT-302. Is this correct?
