      Depends on tech sheets from manufacturers, its environmental location and what’s being drawn from it in a power cut. As anNSI company we have to abide by manufacturers guidance but generally it’s 3-5 years depending what my discharge calc says. If it’s a wireless system and police calling I change them every 2 years as I don’t leave anything to chance.

      Hi, It’s been so long since I went out to this one. I’ve had to review the video to see what I said and I did indeed say if was possibly the bell tamper, however I’ve not been back to it since panel replacement so my speculation of it being a possible bell tamper was not the case as I’ve not been called back since. Cheers.

      Hi. It’s Orisec. The great thing about these are, If you are doing a panel upgrade and you only have a 4 core going to the siren you can put the siren into data mode which uses 4 cores and then wire the siren into the data bus instead of the bell out. By doing it this way you are able to put the siren into eng mode from the keypad.

Quality is improving, my Callout and false alarm rate is 0.01% and has been for a few years. False alarm’s these days are usually subscriber related.

      No no. Ain’t used red and black for power for ages. This is my way. If you have a 4 core cable you will have red, black, blue and yellow. So on a contact I use blue and red for alarm and black and yellow (hazard colour) for tamper. Same on detectors but they would have power in addition so a 6 core is needed and the 2 remaining colours left in a 6 core are green and white so they are my power colours. If the detector or contact is 2 wire eol it’s stale red and blue.
