Wireless Perimeter Beams, the ultimate protection technology

I just love these, writing my Blog on Valentines day just pushes the point.  if you call an alarm company and ask for a quote to protect your property this product will never be mentioned,  conventional methods take over, only this morning a client had a window smashed early hours, someone reached in and took her laptop, I-Phone etc the alarm was still beginning to fire and the burglar had gone legging it down the drive.

The local Crime Prevention Officer suggested to her that when he was in the States they put beams around the perimeter of the property so the Alarm goes off before they reach the house, not after they are inside….. how cool is that,  so here she is in our showroom,

One of our engineers explained how easy to install and how efficient they are, “when they go off get out of bed”  he said…   anyway here’s how you do it.

1: The Beams comprise of 2 units,  Transmitter and Receiver which can be set up to 100Metres apart,   Insert the batteries into the Units.. the Sun Charges these for you , “what if we don’t get any sun”  she asked,  that’s not a problem duck, they will hold a charge for up to 30 days not even England is that dull”  now screw to a wall, Post (Post kit is included) or Tree,  line of sight range to your panel can be up to 500 metres by line of sight, line the units up through the built in sights, they flash at each other 10 times so both know their other half is there,  and by the way the unit takes up to 16 sets of Beams or even Wireless PIR’s, Magnetic door & Window sensors plus Smoke Alarms.

For reference we have a Solar Charged Wireless Repeater that sends the signal up 1.5Km from the Beams to the Panel

2: Screw the panel to the wall, connect the Power pack and plug into the mains and follow the simple instructions to connect,  break the beams to alarm them, the panel then detects them……………..finished.

3: Siren is internal but we have an external unit which is wired but simply plugs in, about 115 dbs with a flashing strobe for less than a tenner,  still hate wires we have an external Wireless Siren with Flash which is also Solar Charged like your Beams.. even easier.

4: Set to waist height so the wildlife walks underneath, only big things set these off,  just make sure nothing grows in front of them.

5: Later you can plug it into your BT socket, the in built Auto-Dialler can call you mobile when it goes off.

Anyway you can check out the Wireless Solar Charged beam Kits yourself, Stock Code No : WL-BEAMS-PANEL-KIT

I will try to find the time to put some more detailed installation instructions on the site soon.  TTFN

The Very Latest Night Vision Technology, “The 4th Generation I/R ARRAY III”

The very latest I/R ARRAY’s are now here, classed as the 4th Generation of Infra-Red night Vision, you can find these incorporated into our range of models classified as our Stock Code:CAM50/9-22/TRIPLE-ARRAY-BLACK if you search our site on this part number you will check out 4 varients using ARRAY technology, here is the basics– an equivalent of approx 200 LED’ s are combined into each array of which 2 or 3 ARRAY units are fitted into each camera dependant on what range is required, how intense the I/R requirement and also based on the lens fitted which must be I/R sensitive, I/R Cut Filters are an essential part of the system and let I/R out but filter any coming back in to minimize white out,  the biggest breakthrough is the sheer black and white clarity of the images,,,, most I/R cameras are fitted with an I/R Unit which does not flood and hence gives a strong circle of light in the centre of the shot,  manufactures can overcome this fitting at leas 72 LED’s to overcome the problem or using a Flood I/R Unit which reduces the I/R range to just a few metres…. The ARRAY III design offers seriously more LED equivalents combined with flood which results in a magically even I/R spread across the shot even when set to Wide angle, no more torch effect in the centre of the screen.

Ideal matching of I/R to lens is achieved with 2 x ARRAYS on 4 – 11mm lens units and 3 x ARRAYS on 9 – 22mm models , the latter offering up to 80 metres of I/R at a narrow shot setting,  most buy this camera for a long range narrow night time shot,  for maximum effectiveness an advanced OSD setup is included as a support for the 9 – 22mm lens and offers easy fine tuning using the small joystick switch under the Lower panel Cover.

Too much I/R at close range is helped by the I/R filters but what if all this power whites out the subject when not as close, this is cured by fitting an I/R power adjuster to each of the CAM50′s this allows the installer to turn down the I/R, all you will see is the small control which when turned anti clockwise reduces the intensity, how easy is that… a Socket with a Cable fitted with BNC sockets is supplied for a Test Screen or outputting to a Single screen.
