House log - 18/06/21
I wanted to get an Ajax security system because of the potential of integration with other systems. As soon as I've started investigating I've hit two issues:
- Connectivity to monitoring centre and
- Installation
Connectivity to monitoring centres
I've found out that the system can connect to most monitoring centres, like:
- securitas
- Oktopus
- Praxis
But... you need them to be installed by an authorized installer
Installation
Axis is a DIY system. In fairness, there are a lot of tutorials and forums showing you hos to install things yourself. In Belgium however, you need to have the system installed by a professional in order to connect to a monitoring service. This is quite unpleasant as it almost doubles the cost of the hardware...
If you're willing to have a pro install the system or you don't need to connect to a monitoring service, then have a look at the Ajax system.
HTH,
