Default Texecom decides to go green/save money

will no longer be giving out paper copies of installation manuals with
their alarms. That's not much use to a DIYer.

From their email

"Texecom is no longer supplying printed copies of installation manuals
with Texecom electronic security products manufactured after Monday 21st
January.

Printing hard copies of installation manuals and supplying with each
individual product is extremely wasteful, increasingly expensive,
damaging to the environment and, crucially, does not guarantee the
latest information relating to digitally-enabled and remotely upgradable
security products.

Texecom installation manuals are always available and always up to date
to professional security installers on our free TexecomPro app and on
the Texecom website.

Texecom has developed the TexecomPro app specifically to enhance and
support professional installers who design, install and maintain Texecom
security systems. Available free on iOS and Android, TexecomPro is the
go-to resource for all Texecom technical information."

See the clever use of the word crucially?

So how does this post help DIYers?

Well you just sign up as a professional installer and make up any
company name you want for free online access to their manuals. They do
not check any details (I am sure a reader will register with them to
prove this).

Of if you do not want to sign up then just email me with the Texecom
manual you want and I'll email it to you.


Thank you for your email. In the past I have been able to download the
instruction pdf files from their website. I hope this will be possible I
am not really a fan of mobile phones.
