    Alarm monitoring

I have the Texecom premier with text module installed but would like it connected to an arc. Can I do this on a diy system? I understand that this would be keyholder response only and to...

    CCTV for front door flat

    Get a ring video door bell bud. Activates on motion and for £25 a year you have cloud recording. We've just got one on our house and it's fantastic. You can even talk to whomever is at your door via your phone for extra piece of mind

    Ricochet Premiere elite 48 setup

    I set mine up without a laptop and despite having fitted a fair few alarms in the past (so wouldn't say I was a novice) I really struggled. To be fair without this forum and specifically sparkymarka I would of still been struggling now. If you can connect a laptop my advice is to do it!

    Alarming my shed's

    It's running version 3.0 and it's an elite 24. It's currently got one expander so it should be ok adding a wireless one as it can go up to 24 zones can't it?

    Alarming my shed's

    Hi all just wanted some opinions I'm going to alarm my shed's shortly and was toying with different ideas. Idea 1 is to buy a Yale alarm or similar to just alarm the shed's. Idea 2 is to get a wireless expander for my texecom premier and put a wireless pir in both sheds I would program this as...

    I've got the same panel in my house but I went for the com GSM rather than wifi. Got a SIM card in the alarm which is on a £5 monthly tarrif.

    Galaxy 2-12 reset - what about my wireless zones?

    My sisters bought a house that had an adt alarm in it. Turns out the previous owners only leased the alarm and didn't own the panel, keypad or bell, I had to install her a new alarm after they came and removed the old one. Was a while ago but it runs in my mind they wanted something like £150 a...
