Our alarm company started treating us like jerks to us from day one and
we've kicked them to the curb now that our contract is up. The problem is
they were not willing to share the installer's code with us for some
reason....

Believe it or not, a number of years ago, I had a very large dock float
stolen. Someone cut it loose and towed it off into the night.
I'm about to build a new one, and I'm wondering if there's something I can
do to prevent a repeat theft, or at least to recover the float if that

I just finished a takeover using a Caddx NX-6 using DL900 ver 2.06.  Did I
miss something or is there no event log?  Is there a place to record the
zone name?  It looks like a place for it, but I couldn't figure out a way to
put it in.  It uses digital keypads so there are no alpha ...

I am looking for the programming software with the I/O programming in it
for the N-750. I have been in the Alarm industry for 13 years when I
left the company I use to work for about 2 years ago I didn't get all my
  software back. I have a N-750 I want to install to replace the ...

I have a question regarding programming of a Caddx 8980.  I'm
programming the panel through a 9050 LCD keypad.  So far I've

We're looking for a smart, motivated individual for a challenging position

the ability to get one through testing or reciprocity. NICET fire alarm
certification a major plus.

I have an Ademco/FBII system with the XL-4612 keypad. The entry delay
seems to have gone haywire, i.e., much shorter than the 30 seconds I
had. This problem appears to be independent of whether I use "stay" or
the fully alarmed state.

Buyers:
- do you always purchase an equipment without having a basic
  idea about theyre quality, performance on the major part of
  its design?

I have a PC1550 alarm system and would like to change the dial out
number to my cell phone number. Is this possible and if so can it be
done through just the keypad? Also, would anyone be able to walk me
through the steps to do so?

I tried hooking up my 4285 to my via30+ and now I have two problems...the
first is that I can;t communicate with the 4285 with the phone, the second
is now the 6128 display shows bF in the top corner.  If anybody can help me
I would really appreciate it.

They are not reliable and are dead on warning when a transmitter
operates in a condition who muzzle the wireless alarm system.
This is easily done with Radio Transmitters operating:

I need your advice. Right now, I can't afford an alarm system but I'd
like to do something to make my home more secure. I've done what I can
with good locks and so forth but last night I was watching QVC and
they offered this:

RFI is an unavoidable nuisances for wireless alarm systems..
I showed that RFI is an unavoidable nuisances for wireless alarm
systems in several posts.
I had a case who muzzled my wireless alarm system for more than one
