That's a great pity. For a "faith" to restrict an individual to this extent is (at least for me) the point at which I would ask... WHY? I wouldn't make a very good Orthodox Jew. :-)
That's well and good. But knowledge is only one aspect. Application is the other. I'd prefer to leave Orthodox Jewish people to members of their own community (that actually UNDERSTAND their concerns). I don't need to pursue them as clients. I have much bigger fish to fry.
I don't need that kind of "client".
Good!!! More power to you!!
Auto arming is a standard feature in most alarm systems (even the "cheapo" DSC stuff). And what you were providing here is nothing less than what others in the industry do as well.
You've already gone "beyond the box".
You're talking about disarming and re-arming a system that only employed contact type devices (no motion or glass break detectors). I'm not sure how you imagine an "out of the box" DSC system couldn't do this.
It can't be done with Napco's panels "out of the box either". You'll need additonal modules and relays.
I couldn't comment because I haven't seen a calculation for one of these Shabos systems.
As does DSC.
DBD (difficult but doable). Again... It's not something I would want to get into in the first place. The kind of clients that need this level of "hand holding" I'd refer to Bob C.
Changing holiday dates is something you can download with most panels (including DSC's). As for providing an equipment list... I'd need you to post the client's exact requirements first. I've forgotten most of what you had posted here a couple of years ago. Also... If you find that I can program a DSC system to operate EXACTLY the way your most finicky client required, then we're going to have to set a "reward". Mine will include a $100.00 donation to the United Way. Yours...???
DSC doesn't have "mid range stuff". It's all "cheap". :-)
So is DSC...
These days with the exchange rate being what it is, it's cheaper to buy DSC.
It shows!! :-)
