[Ticket Question] Alarm System With External Pet- Friendly Detectors?

[Secware]

I am interested in the wireless detectors for my home. (outdoor) Blueline PIR Detector

 

We live on a very large property with three large dogs in the garden. 2.What I would like to do is divide the property into 4 security zones which can be armed and disarmed independently. I was thinking of placing about 4 or 5 detectors in each zone. Could you make any suggestions? Do you think that the above detector will be right for me?

 

Next, I would like to hear your opinion about the receivers and/or control panel that I would need? The control panel (alarm system) should be armed and disarmed by using a remote control.

 

My other concern is that we often experience power cuts, therefore I would need a control panel that runs on power but also has a rechargable back up battery that will run the alarm system when we experience power shortages.Also, I would need a siren that preferrably has a light with it (althought the light is not a major concern) and that can run on a back up battery as well. These detectors will be used outdoors.

 

Please could you make any suggestions?

?The basic concerns are that the alarm system/control panel/receiver can run

on a battery as we have power shortages.

?The detectors should be outdoor and pet friendly.

?Separation of detectors into 4 independent zones.

?controlled by remote control

 

I am looking forward to your reply.

I will try and make some suggestions...

The blueline is an internal sensor only. What is the size of your dogs?

It will be very difficult (expensive) to create a system where 5 areas can be armed disarmed speratly from a single fob. When you say 4 areas, do you want seperate reporting of these areas with a single all on/all off command or do you need to arm them seperatly?

If you use a security control panel then it will accomodate battery backup. Pretty much all modern sounders have led's and strobes.

No problem but I need to know more before recommending a panel. At the moment im thinking a bigger galaxy flex or dimension as this will allow the flexability it appears you need.

 

 

?The detectors should be outdoor and pet friendly.

Personally im not a fan of pet detectors as such. If you want reliable external detection with the minimum of false alarms i would not recommend a passive detector. I would recommend an active detector such as http://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/takex-30m-ext-60m-int-twin-actve-beam-p-2042.html

 

 

?Separation of detectors into 4 independent zones.

Not a problem as even the most basic panels have 8 zones now.

 

 

?controlled by remote control

not a problem but we need to pick a panel first then decide on arming options.
