Out of curiosity, how are these alarm system bypassing these "alerts" requirement? Have they called it a different name? or? Can you give some example?

Remeber, it is not that hard to achieve grading. a lot of time, DIY supplier like response (Actually they are part of Nova, now Honeywell, the biggest alarm company on the planet) purposely exclude features to make it friendly, failing the standard at the same time. In fact, a lot of time...

That is not correct. If you have a 2.4GHz digital camera, you cannot accidentally pick up another camera (OK, one in a trillion chance?). "Error Checksum" in the last segement of the signal is the reason. Google that, not gonna explain signal processing here... You are right when you say...

I used to be an engineer for a DVR manufactuer a few years ago, so i might not be the most up to date! Pro system like Dedicated micros and Silent witness are indeed overkill, and unless you intended to use PTZ cameras their PTZ support in their standard spec is wasted. There is a few...

What you mean by connecting to the router for mobile alert? you want it to be IP enabled (connecting to internet)? or simply want a system that can call your mobile phone via Landline? If you want the latter, I believe the HSA6400 by Yale offers the best value for money (very reliable and...
