Re: Installing alarm system on a 'prewired' house

["Crash Gordon" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For awhile there they were doing that (selling wireless) even when they knew
the house was prewired. Dunno why, maybe they figured most prewires are crap
(pot calling the kettle black).

I did a Pro 1 take over Saturday. Prewire was by someone else ( cheap
builder job) but there were spare wires in the box. I couldn't figure out
why they had sold the owner 1 x 5881L reciever and 1 x 5890 pir...when there
was an easily located wire for a wired motion detector 6 inches to the left
of where they put the 5890! DUH.

Oh yeah they also had a non-opening window in the garage wired but beanied
off in the wall...but in the loop, and described on the keypad as being in
the loop.
