  3. Hi. PIRs would work but still have false alarms or install a good PIR setup like a redwall unit. if you want solid protection then optex beams ..... just 4 core alarm cable back to NVR or another optex with custom added voice alert ..... same install just 4 core cable or go wireless video demo 30G5iMZ6sxQ

    loud alarm

    Smoke has been around in uk for over 15 years but only just starting to be used more and more. Liability was the problem at first DHL was a big user till a claim was made ...gange member hurt in raid. Signage is important in and out of store or house. Or recorded message while smoke is deployed. We use thermal camera with are systems. But fire departments in that area should also be involved they do make a lot of smoke

  18. Hi all again, binned my sunluxy 4ch dvr due the intermittent picture as it switched to NO SIGNAL then goes back to picture and continued to do this when connected to my old dvr, so bought another sunluxy dvr thinking my old one was goosed and with my new dvr it still does it, if I wire my camera straight to tv then its perfect. im stumped, anyone any advice. thanks Ross Right click on screen and disable e Sequence
  19. are you for real ...... your directing him to a CIF recorder, PLA system: Display Resolution: 720 × 576 compressed resolution: 352 × 288 NTSC system: Display Resolution: 720 × 480 compressed resolution: 352 × 240
  20. you can buy the couplings in both straight through or crossover ........ are they both straight ??? but a punchdown block is much better . how long is your run and what are you connecting ??
  21. yes its ok ....... push down box is best way ........ and also remember not to take to much of the cable twist (keep twist as close to connection as you can)

    loud alarm

    Thanks, I'll check local ordinances. Best, Christopher Also to take into account the legal db limit. Alarm systems in homes are starting to fade out ...... With the reasons already given (slow police response) or if home alarm is always giving false alarms (cry wolf ) Smoke bandit is now in the price range of a alarm system and it will protect much better than a alarm system
