Homeowner Forum / Security Alarms / February 2005

A few months ago Woot had a Samsung surveillance package for 119.00 + 5.00

need the cameras but would buy the whole system to get them. Is there anyone
here that bought this and is having "buyers remorse" ?

My house was completly pre-wired for a security system when it was
built. I am now in the process of installing the hardware and I ran
into a snag. I installed the first of 3 keypads (Ademco 6160) right
where I wanted it by the garage door, but it didn't seem to be getting

Its now since 4 years that i first mentioned:
-  Wireless Alarm Systems are UNRELIABLE during
   Radio Frequency Interferences (RFI);
-   Theyre is no warning that the system is muzzled to dead.

located in the software?  Who's the "project manager" at ...

and I have appeared to have lost the manual for the keypad.  It's a
