And combnining the existing beams with a motion detection dual tech PIR?

Standard cutoff after 15 min?

I would prepare the new alarm with all configured (including the battery connected to the board) but the siren, disconnect the siren from the old panel and connect to the new one and then connect the new one to the mains. As soon as the siren is connected to the new panel it should stop.

If the alarm is very old and so is the siren, probably the battery inside the siren is long gone...

If you are in a meeting, after 10 rings (if I am correct) it will call the next one. As soon as a person answers the call it stops calling the next people on the list. As a backup I always have an SMS sent to me, so I know that something happened even if my phone was temporarily out of...

After the first person on the "list" answers it stops calling the others (it rings 10 times if I remember correctly). It also calls you if you are abroad, it cannot know where you are (you do not need an international format: your friends do not need to use a prefix when calling you abroad on...

Exactly, but that was enough for me being out of home for most of the day. I also like the idea that I do know I am not getting false alarms, that is not the case but it was a big fear of mine when I installed it (I have non frienldy neighbours)...

They "just" call you and/or send an sms (to one or more phones). That's it...

I have the Advent Controls Alpha: it works very well and it is almost plug & play (on my Veritas R8 at least).

No, it can be rearmed of course... I set it to 10 rearms and that is pretty fine with the rules. But if it goes off for no reason it should not ring for more than one minute. Anyway the rules are by city, some have longer times. Where I live not :-(

I was thinking of the heat combined with the "minor" movement that the shutters have while opening. The movement alone until now never triggered the alarm. Let's see what happens in the next weeks and I will decide whether to do some masking on the sensor or not :) About the bell: the 9...

Hello secureiam, thanks for the answer. The bell is the Kinetic AZ220, do you have an idea how it will behave? I would be very happy to know the behavior in case of no energy/battery from the panel... http://www.kinetic-group.co.uk/kinetic_security/products/external_sounders/az2000_series/...

Hello everybody, I have two unrelated questions: - last weekend, while opening the windows electric shutters, the outside Pyronix XD10TTAM dual tech sensor detected the movement and the alarm went off. That was a one time only event, it never did that before. What do you think could have...

The size is ok, also the specs thanks! I have some problems finding a supplier sending them to Switzerland. If someone has other suggestions are welcome.

Ok I come back to this. I tested with KA set to 1 as Mr Gear suggested and it worked. When I tried KA set to 21 it didn't... can the reason be taht the alarm went off after 10 days? Will the KA SMS work only if no other SMS was sent for the set period of time?

Hello, what is the smallest / most discrete dual tech PIR for interior use? I can only find non dual PIR that are quite small. Thanks a lot for the help

Since a few of you have the Advent Controls Alpha unit attached to the alarm, maybe someone can confirm I configured the Keep Alive function correctly. I sent the message with this format KA 0954005934, 21 I got as answer KA TEXT is this the correct behaviour? Note I did not...

I have the Advent Controls Alpha that was posted on an ebay Ad above: it works very well and it is almost plug & play (on my Veritas R8 at least). About the signal, mine is installed behind the fridge, on the side of the R8 panel and there the signal is quite weak. Buit it still works well...

It is the single core wire of the 5 cores connection between the R8 and the siren. The label on that wire is "BELL" as printed in the manual and the board. I still am not sure wether it should have gone off or not the siren... in my case it didn't (in Engineering Mode).
