Anyone know where I can buy just a ADT security system yard sign and
some window decals. I did a lot of searching but just came up with complete security systems. I just want the sign, thanks. |

Steal one ? ;-) I doubt ADT sells them since that is the main deterrant they sell with a four figure security system. |

Connect a dog-run chain to your front porch railing while you're at it.
They're cheap, and they communicate. dh wrote: Anyone know where I can buy just a ADT security system yard sign and some window decals. I did a lot of searching but just came up with complete security systems. I just want the sign, thanks. |

Utility water, or a well? Either way, that's WAY too high, and
it's a wonder any of your faucets will shut off anymore. If it's utility water, talk to them. If it's a well, your regulator is shot and needs to be replaced. The 80 number makes me think it's a well - utility pressue wouldn't change from running hte water unless there was a regulator with hysterisis controlling the pressure. Don't just bandaid it; find the cause. The other poster was right: 40-50 is a usual pressure setting. That way it doesn't blow the water rught back into your face when you try to fill a glass or a bowl wiht water. Must be a nice, fast flow though g.

Granted it won't call central station unless you have the cellular add on but it will sure get the neighbors attention if you have an outside siren. |

Consider one of the faux security cameras with the blinking red LED on the
front. They're listed in many places from $15-25. Mount it high enough to prevent theft, of course. HTH Joe |

Greetings,
Everywhere you were planning on ADT signs post a copy of a different article along the lines of "Home intruder shot dead by woman". --William "dh" wrote in message ...

Just call ADT and ask for them. There great ads for the company. If they won't
bring them out, tell the ADT sales rep your going to call there local competition and let them plant an ad on your lawn. Alarms will not sound if your phone line is cut. You must request your alarm company install a phone line monitor to protect them. Them the alarm will sound if you lines are cut. |

According to ADT (I'm a customer) if the phone line is cut, that triggers
the alarm. Dan Shulman "Edwin Pawlowski" wrote in message news:NWImd.7387$063.2471@trndny03... Are the really a deterrent or do they say "cut the phone line"? |

used 12 lines of text to write in newsgroup: alt.home.repair According to ADT (I'm a customer) Sorry to hear that. if the phone line is cut, that triggers the alarm. You better make sure you didn't get a generic answer. The systems they deploy are Ademco brand, made for their proprietary use. All the Vista series panels do not have a TLM. BTW.. A TLM (Telephone Line Monitor) works by monitoring DC line voltage. It is triggered when the voltage drops below ~20V for a period of 3-6 minutes. (depending on make and model of the panel/seperate module). What's important to note is: IF THE LINE IS CUT, NO SIGNAL WILL BE TRANSMITTED. ONLY THE SIREN WILL SOUND. The only thing you can do to prevent non-reporting of phone-cut attacks is to have backup reporting VIA cellular or long-range radio. The growing trend will be IP based monitoring over your high-speed Internet, but that is not considered a viable residential application (yet). -- -Graham Remove the 'snails' from my email |

It is triggered when the voltage drops below ~20V for a period of
3-6 minutes. I bet that is more like 6 or 7 volts. Hang a meter on your phone line and see what it is with a couple of phones "off hook". On hook is around 48, off hook is 8-10, ringing is about 100 If a guy was really that interested he would hang a 9v battery on the Dmark before he cut he wire. |

attacks is to have backup reporting VIA cellular or long-range radio. The growing trend will be IP based monitoring over your high-speed Internet, but that is not considered a viable residential application (yet). So how is high speed internet going to be any better when you can cut that physical wire just as easily as any telephone line? People's internet connections are frequently always-on, so that "monitored" means what, apparently, a monitored phone line doesn't anymore. To whit: The monitoring system can ping your alarm system every minute or so, and if it doesn't get an answer, freak. I recommend not using anything created by microsoft in such a system. --Goedjn |

used 8 lines of text to write in newsgroup: alt.home.repair If the cops showed up everytime my broadband connection was out I would need to widen the driveway. As I already noted, this technology is not ready for the primary communication in residential use. It is currently deployed in high-end government facilities and private high security applications. These locations usually have T-1 or T-3 multi-homed Internet connections. In the meantime there are cellular backups, and proprietary long range radio solutions. http://www.alarm.com/ GE Security Division Radio Based Monitoring http://www.alarmnet.com/ Honeywell Security (Ademco) Radio, Cellular, and Internet http://www.dsc.com/products/alarmCom...ns/default.asp DSC Cellular, Internet http://www.napcosecurity.com/testfra...cts-napco.html Internet -- -Graham Remove the 'snails' from my email |
