DVR MAN 0 Posted December 29, 2007 I have installed alarm systems, and two surveillance systems. I am totally addicted to tinkering with covert systems. There is nothing that satisfies me more than being able to out smart a crook. You guys have some good advice! Thanks! Ron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scorpion 0 Posted December 31, 2007 Now for the fun part! Connecting the alarm system, and the surveillance system together to tighten the layers of security! Do you do video verification? It appears the police around our parts treat burglar alarm calls in the same catagory as "barking dog call". Verified alarm has really changed the industry, and has allevated the the respoce level!

DVR MAN 0 Posted December 31, 2007 Hi! Thanks for the question. In the last twenty five years, my alarm has triggered twice. The police responded both times. The first time we were on vacation, they found no evidence of intrusion. The second time we were on vacation, and it was our dog sitter that tripped the alarm. Ever try phoning the desk Sergent from the shore and telling him that the dog sitter is OK? Anyway, my new dvr has 16 N/O N/C capability. I have not tied it to the basic alarm, and may not. The dvr can email any incident when the dvr event is triggered, and the time stamp will verify with the police report via their case #. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rory 0 Posted December 31, 2007 Welcome to the forum .. Scorpion .. down here you can call the cops and they wont come half the time .. best way to get them here is to tell them someone got drugs or guns, and they will be right over promptly. My alarm has triggered a few times in the past couple years .. mostly from burglars .. but then I dont have it tied into a CMS .. I can call the police just as quick as they can ..

scorpion 0 Posted December 31, 2007 I have a solenoid with a chocolate glaze donut attached. When the alarm is triggered, the outside solenoid waves the donut back, and forth, and some how the police dept shows up immeaditly! Sometimes more than several patrol cars respond! Now what to do about my ant problem! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

andyscan 0 Posted January 1, 2008 Ha Ha I love the idea of the dougnut cop lure. Makes my idea ,of a motor mounted AK47 connected to motion sensors seem a bit silly now. Although it could cure your ant problem if the bodies were disposed of quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Troy 0 Posted January 2, 2008 The donut could work!! Why not anyone think of intergrating them with surveillance systems before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
