Honeywell 6280 Color Graphic Touchscreen Keypad with Voice

The Honeywell 6280 color graphic voice touchscreen keypad (comes in 6280S which is silver or 6280W which is white around the screen). This is Honeywell’s newest offering if you are looking to add a touchscreen keypad option to your Vista system.

This keypad has a graphical interface that matches the icons from the Honeywell total connect graphics, which makes it easier to understand if you get the total connect monitoring add-on later. It also has the voice annunciation for all system status conditions, that means if you don’t understand the icons it will speak to you. It will only speak in the English language.

This new keypad not only displays what your alarm is doing, but it can be a digital picture frame or play videos as well. This makes it not only useful as a keypad but fun as well.

Features

High-resolution, 7″ widescreen 640 x 480 TFT display
16 million colors capability to display vivid images
Intuitive touchscreen display with icons and menu driven prompts (English only)
Digital picture frame, slide show or home movies through standard SD card
Available in two colors
- Silver: Ideal for kitchens with stainless steel appliances, garages and basements
- White: Blends seamlessly with lighter décors
Three languages can be displayed
- English
- Spanish (Latin American)

Voice annunciation of type and location of alarm (English only)
Family message center that lets end-users record and playback messages
Entry/Exit countdown displayed
Authorized end-user can easily add or delete user codes
View zone lists with status
End-user can quickly and easily bypass zones

I have worked with one of these and I have to say they are very nice looking as well as easy to work with. And would be a very good addition to any system if you are looking to have touch screen capability on your Vista system.

The GE Simon XT Starter Kit Version 1.X

We have acquired a lot of the original Simon XT version 1 panels at a great price!! The Version 1 panels are what GE first came out with when they introduced the Simon XT as an upgrade from the Simon 3.

The Simon XT version 1 is a 40 zone, totally wireless system that makes installing a breeze. The panel voice announces all alarm conditions that occur. This panel also has the ability, if a land-line phone line is wired into it, to call four numbers for self-monitoring purposes. This means that if you want the panel to call out to your cell phone instead of a central station monitoring service; then you can do it. When the panel calls out to your cell phone; it will voice aanounce just like it does at the panel itself.

Learning devices into the programming of the panel is a snap. All you do is either send a signal from the device that you’re trying to learn into the Simon XT or input the serial number into the panel via the keypad.

GE has many wireless devices for this panel ranging anywhere from burglary devices to fire protection. We usually recommend this system to people who aren’t very tech savvy because it is the easiest system we have in our stock to set up. Perfect for the elderly because of its ease of setup, use, and the fact that it speaks what is going on with it!

PIR DVR w/ Remote DVRPIR

The PIR DVR w/ Remote DVRPIR is one of latest and greatest!! This is a sneaky way to keep tabs on your household. This security camera with built-in DVR capabilities looks just like a normal PIR motion detector.

This motion detector is an actual motion detector!! It will trigger upon movement. It can be compared to a hunter trap camera in the way that it works. The unit accepts a multi-media SD card. It will accept up to a 32 GB SD card to take still photos and video footage.

You can also continuously record as well with this tiny security guard!! Doing this might eat up some space on the SD card, but it’s capable of doing it. This feature could be used for those 2 hour shopping excursions or when you go across town to visit family.

The recording resolution of this unit is a whopping 1280 x 720. Which means that it can be easily and clearly viewed on a bigger monitor with no distortion. The PIR DVR w/ Remote DVRPIR comes with a USB cable so that you can transfer footage and motion captured pictures directly to your computer.

All-in-all this is a great, inexpensive way to keep an eye on your premises without breaking your wallet on a big security camera setup.

WiFi IP BAT Broadband Alarm Transmitter Communicator

The WiFi IP BAT Broadband Alarm Transmitter Communicator is the latest release from IPDatatel. This works just like their regular IPBAT but instead of connecting the panel to a router via ethernet cable; this version is a two piece unit. One piece wires into your control panel and then you take the wireless gateway and attach it to your router. This will give the module the ability to communicate back and forth without a long run of ethernet cable.

It gives you all of the functionality of the original IP BAT and none of the hassle of running ethernet cable through the house.

You still get the ability to go online and sign in, through any web browser, and set up your contact list, review your systems event log, and access the system through the virtual keypad.

The contact list you set up can be contacted by automated phone call, email, or text message and whichever method you choose for notifications; you will see or hear exactly what is being triggered.

The virtual keypad that you get can be used for anything that you can do on the real keypad such as programming, bypassing zones, arming, disarming, adding user codes, deleting user codes, etc. It even resembles the keypad that is on your system.

You can also download an app for your iPhone or Android that works as a simple numeric keypad that you can use as a key fob to arm and disarm your system. Say that you get down the street and remembered that you forgot to arm your system. Well, before the WiFi-IPBAT you had to drive all the way back home and arm it. Not anymore. With the app for your smart phone, all you have to do is pull out your phone, go to the app, and arm your system.

This is a really great product and we have quite a few people using it now. We can’t wait to see more developments from IPDatatel in the future because being such a young company; they have really come out with a great device for today’s technologically savvy alarm system owner.

Digital Wireless 2.4" LCD Baby Monitor with IR Camera and 2-Way Audio

The Digital Wireless 2.4″ LCD Baby Monitor with IR Camera and 2-Way Audio is a new product that we have added to our site that we are really proud to feature!! Not only is the safety of your home a priority, but the safety of your family is also at the top of the list as well.

Keeping an eye on your toddler while you’re in the kitchen fixing dinner used to be a chore with constant back and forth trips to the child’s room to check in on them. Then when the audible monitor came out; you could hear if your child needed you but you couldn’t exactly see what was going on.

Now with the Digital Wireless 2.4″ LCD Baby Monitor you can hear when you child is needing you or in trouble and you can actually see what the problem might be before you even step foot in the room!

Not only is this great for keeping an eye out for anything that might be disturbing your child, but you can also keep an ear open as well with this units 2-way audio capability. Say that you put your toddler to bed and then retire to the living room. Right in the middle of your favorite late night program your child wakes and starts calling your name. You can let them know exactly where in the house you are so that they can come find you.

A great buy for anyone and a great gift especially with the Christmas season coming around the corner!

Winland TA-40 Fixed Temperature Switch

The Winland TA-40 Fixed Temperature Switch is primarily used for temperature controlled structures that are in areas that get below freezing at times. The TA-40 will open a “normally closed” dry contact if the temperature falls below 39 degrees Fahrenheit (4 degrees Celsius), this means that it can be hooked to an existing alarm system or used in conjunction with a voice dialer to make a call or simply just hooked to a siren or light to notify the neighbors. This way you can enjoy your trip to the beach this winter with the satisfaction of knowing that your fish aquarium won’t be a giant ice-cube when you return and your water pipes didn’t bust.
The Winland company has been a leader in its field since 1972 and is Proudly made right here in the USA and offers everything from the TA-40 Temperature Switch to Water and Flood Sensors with a whole lot in between.

Smoke Detector Tester Model 25S (Institutional Size 2.5 oz.)

Smoke Detector Tester Model 25S or “Canned Smoke” is a very valuable tool in making sure your alarm system’s fire sensors are up and running problem free, and are ready to detect. Most of the time, issues with smoke detectors are discovered too late but, by giving them a weekly test, you could save yourself a ton of money in damaged and destroyed homes, personal property within the home, and even the lives of your loved ones and yourself.

These little, two and a half ounce aerosol containers, contain 200 + sprays for each test, that means that if you tested your system once a week, one can would last almost two years for each smoke detector… definitely worth saving a life.
The Smoke Detector Tester Model 25S will trigger both “Ionization Detectors” and “Photoelectric Detectors” and has little to no odor at all so you won’t be stinking the place up every time you test your detectors. For under $10.00 a can, there’s NO reason every family shouldn’t own at least one can of smoke…. Is your family worth it?
