warren Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 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 for the help Regards Warren. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secware_Tech6 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Im a bit of a galaxy fan so i would say the galaxy. eg. galaxy 2 or dimension eg http://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=193 or http://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2064 if using the dimension that will take touchscreens (1 per line so 1 on the Dimension 48 up to 4 on the 520) the G2 wont take a touchscreen Both panels will accept additional MK7 keypads / keyprox's http://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=699 Quad pir wise you have quite a choice. It does depend on your environment, use etc. Not all quad sensors are created equal. Dualtec wise for an outhouse id recommend a DT74 series ie http://www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1676 Internal door contacts to suit the door. again depends on application Garage door. You can use a std door contact but id recommend using a roller shutter type. Panic button, do you want single push double push etc? Whole seperate topic here IMHO Txt / speech dialler Both the galaxy units above have built in modems for sms via a landline. They also have built in digital comm units so can be set to signal an arc as std. Listen in function. To do this properly you would need the audi confirm module on the dimension and microphones in the relevant areas. SOme diallers have a very basic version of this functionallity ie the pyronix speech dialler and the better menvier units. Dial in arm etc. You cant do this on the galaxy without the pc software. If you want to dial in, then only the rf panels offer this, ie visonic powermax and the risco wisdom. There is a web client though for the scantronic ION40 unit. wired/wireless the dimension and the g2 will accept rf expanders making them into hybrid panel. The GD-48 is a fine high end panel. it may be overkil but that depends on your requirments. I have a dimension at home myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
