    Hmmm lotta questions. Yes break beam is a different manufacturer but don't really matter. Don't remember cost but they aren't cheap. They are a good manufacturer very well rated YOU would need an external pir (opal elite) springs to mind but any external detector is prone to false...

    Accenta G3 tamper alarm

    The tamper circuit can be a pain to diagnose. Basically there is a wire that loops around all your detectors to create a continuous loop. If it is this circuit hard to tell where it's coming from. Lift and reseat all the covers on your detectors. There is also a separate one to your bell and I...

    Accenta 8 Mini

    Probably is the battery but without a code it will activate whenever you switch it on now. It needs resetting and programming again.

    FYI i said from your description it is not the correct way to test the battery. "The load test on the battery was also done in the first stage reset as you have to remove the mains power in order to do one. I had a multimeter connected to it to see if it was putting out the right amount of...

    CCTV system

    PTZ is not cheap but to be honest as an internal camera not many about except the IP cameras you find here and there. Maybe you should invest in a Decent DVR and build your camera system gradually rather than buy the system outright and you can still install all the cabling. I dont use POE but...

    Inactive sensor on visonic alarm

    If it's inactive it may be a range issue as in it can no longer see the sensor due to the distance. However the batteries seem to do odd things sometimes with this panel so I would replace the sensor battery anyway as they are only a few pounds. Don't think you knocking it would cause this issue

    CCTV system

    In all fairness on your budget go to maplin and pick up one of their HD kits. They usually have one set up so you can judge the image quality yourself.

    Moved Scantronic 9651 - First Stage Reset success.

    If the engineer spent 10 minutes doing as you described and you have now done exactly the same then it still has never been checked properly. Your description of doing the load test is not how it is done. I am a great advocate for DIY (hence i am here) I just get the hump a bit when companies...

    Moved Scantronic 9651 - First Stage Reset success.

    That's fine however bit more than 5 minutes work as every detector would be internally inspected as would the siren. A full load test on the battery. Programming check etc. Sometimes an external maintenance check is an insurance requirement too.
