| Posted: 06 Sep 2020 03:01 PM PDT My home came with a security system. Ademco Vista 20P, specifically. However, no instructions, passcodes, nothing from the previous owners. It is currently offline, but I am thinking of bringing it back up. All the door sensors, window sensors, glassbreak sensors, etc are still in place. We are looking into a smart doorbell and some external security cams, and I thought as long as we're adding some security outside, might as well see what I can do inside. Is there a way to retrofit that security system into a smart home system? Is the Vista 20P capable of being upgraded in such a way? [link] [comments] |
| Help please. First camera system? Posted: 06 Sep 2020 10:14 AM PDT I need to get cameras for around the perimeter of my house. I can't run wires myself so I was thinking of doing wireless. Can I get some suggestions please?
What do y'all think? There's so many and I don't even know where to start. Thanks!! [link] [comments] |
| Looking for Camera or Doorbell that Allows Storage to Local Server Posted: 06 Sep 2020 01:46 PM PDT Every smart doorbell I come across seems to either only store to micro SD, requires a subscription to a cloud product, or a mix of the two. I'm looking for either a doorbell (preferable) or security camera that would allow me to back up the files directly to a home computer. If it requires some DIY that's fine, I'm sure I can figure it out from there. I just would like recommendations on a device that allows a little bit more control from the owner of the device.

| Do only fake security cameras have a blinking red light? Posted: 06 Sep 2020 04:45 AM PDT Should I enable the red blinking light on the fake cams I obtained, or leave them off? Thoughts? [link] [comments] |
| Seeking a swivel/pivoting dome camera mount Posted: 06 Sep 2020 07:11 AM PDT Does anyone know any manufacturers of dome camera mounts that include a swivel or pivot? Dome cameras typically attach to the ceiling, but I want something closer to a 45 degree angle attachment at some locations, and a 30 degree angle at others. The dome cameras are not PZT, so getting the angle I want requires pitching/angling the camera. Anyone have any ideas? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 06 Sep 2020 06:35 AM PDT I've just inherited a house with an DSC 832 and a bunch of wired sensors - but there's no working keypads - and so no control. From what I've read, I'll probably need to reset the system to set a new password, but I need to register new keypads first and foremost. I looking into adding a wireless keypad, but realized it would cost me 300$ for 2 WT5500 keypads and 115$ for a TR5164 for the wireless connection to the system. At 415$, just to get the system to the point where I can try and reset it and get it working, is there another option you would recommend or am I on the right track? [link] [comments] |
