13. Why that childish behavior of pro's subject wireless fails ?



Why that childish behavior of some "so called" professionals when it
boils down to Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) subject wireless
fire/intruder detection systems fails?

Pro's, make an inside look and recall the knowledge prerequisite
needed to be a professional alarm system installer, no minimal radio
data communication knowledge required.

But that doesn't explain everything,
- wireless is something you can't touch;
- you can't see it;
- you can't use your conventional hammer and cleaning cloths
  technique;
- you don't master radio waves techniques otherwise you would
  know that RFI is a well-known common problem in wireless data
  communications.
The usual cleaning of the product you practice or the replacement of
mechanical parts don't improve the quality !

Professional "executors", the experienced man you are is not
responsible of RFI problems, ask your Boss (manager) to contact the
manufacturers.
 That they show theyre credits about the wireless data loop.
 You can't modify the internal software program.
 You can't improve the data loop receiver/transmitter quality, it's
all out of your control and in the hands of the manufacturers.

When you say that you are programming these system, well call it that
way if you like and think it enhance your image but everybody knows
that it is a low level "setup" your do, nothing more.

RFI is a problem the manufacturers have to solve, IF THEY CAN(maybe)!
 The problem of RFI is generated at the outside and out of they're
control too, the frequencies they are allowed to operate theyre
systems on are crowded and not law protected against RFI, they are
shared by others for the best and the worst, usually the worst.

He boss, behave like a "Manager" and ask for manufacturer
specification support, this will avoid endless stupid discussions and
childish behaviors of your executors.
 You have to be a grownup manager and let childish behaviors for your
low level electricians :
- it's not your fault that wireless alarm systems are unreliable
  during RFI
- it's not your fault that wireless alarm systems are muzzled and
  dead during RFI when a detected sensor action is required.

Ask manufacturers spec.'s specifying how they protect they're wireless
data link muzzling due to RFI and stop to find-out some imaginary
build-in stuff who is not published and supported by them.

Even if you don't believe in RFI, spec.'s allow you, and the eventual
purchasers of a system, to make a choice between manufacturers
products.
 There are spec.'s on sensors but not on the "unique" wireless data
loop that replace the "individual" sensor connections in wired
systems, why?
 Actually you are blind, the manufacturers even don't provide you with
the most elementary data about the receiver of they're wireless "data
communication", the basic difference and weak point compared to wired
systems.

 I repeat in the case you missed the above:

   He boss (manager) ask manufacturers support !
   Ask manufacturer product spec.'s about they're wireless stuff.

Professional "executors" ask your boss (manager) to act at the
manufacturers level instead of inventing stupid and unsupported
assumptions.
