<p> It brings back memories when I was on Staff at BSA Camp Semiconon
in 1977 in Conequnessing Butler County on Boy scout Road as a Rangers
Assistant .</p><p>We where having problems with the stoves in the
kitchen of the large Mess Hall where up to 150 scouts gathered 3 times a
day for meals , some times even more when we had Weekend Camporees .
They were having low gas pressure and the ranger asked one of the
scout leaders who worked for one of the Natural Gas Company's if he
could look at it . </p><p>Which he did and <br /></p><p>When he realized
Raw Gas with no Odor was being feed from a private well he raised
absolute hell about it and camp was forced to install propane tanks as
the well was water logged and would be too expensive to properly fix and
put odor.</p><p>Now Gas Codes even back in the 1970s forbid using raw gas into structures yet Camp Semiconon somehow skirted the issue. </p><p>Now
you think the Council who ran the camp would no better especially
after their where over 400 children killed in a school in 1937 in New
London Texas when no odor gas exploded But no they could care less as
the camp which was around from 50s .</p><p> <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

Hazelwood section of Pittsburgh 20’s era 12 homes totally destroyed.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The problem Common open attic construction where a roof is
basically built over top of a box with no fire stopping in place. And up till
the UCC codes went into effect in 06 these structures were still being and in
some cases still are being allowed to be built. In the latest fire started by a
12 yr old boy in a vacant unit along Path Way which residents have pleaded with
the city to tear down 16 people are now homeless and a 65 yr old life long
resident is hospitalized fighting for his life. Worse thing of all many
residents in the block of homes had difficulty obtaining fire insurance because
of the open attic construction.</p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBrdpZ3280Jh1EqPFzngI2h-CXMBq81f_eupX3rTfvRTGAunTmMqA7P2H2myfJtbeUzW9t2sqdffoBb5sXScVVDRi5qloZP57x4jbMtF193lrAPNPkMrW4yPDy1whmFK-_OuwmlGTO0NR-ke-nbhraj8erBxgV9OtO1PtgzeJP-NBOinWh8dG0_wfZ-g/s2272/138_3890.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1704" data-original-width="2272" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBrdpZ3280Jh1EqPFzngI2h-CXMBq81f_eupX3rTfvRTGAunTmMqA7P2H2myfJtbeUzW9t2sqdffoBb5sXScVVDRi5qloZP57x4jbMtF193lrAPNPkMrW4yPDy1whmFK-_OuwmlGTO0NR-ke-nbhraj8erBxgV9OtO1PtgzeJP-NBOinWh8dG0_wfZ-g/s320/138_3890.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP6oH0L5reV6riaNA2OTWb0IO1lNAn-vfdS5--vvjGGWEkZfbCT__3gOceLQ3j_AHUdRQxSwJJbvV8U5eZvmXVmfEgVm2gxiczB3YTYjwYpuEA18hSwCDH0g6-4f5w4uVIUBenPYVHaTqj6yF3XIvopD1hUebWcPPGICVkpsPS5pnwNpGvmiCovXCWig/s2272/138_3894.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1704" data-original-width="2272" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP6oH0L5reV6riaNA2OTWb0IO1lNAn-vfdS5--vvjGGWEkZfbCT__3gOceLQ3j_AHUdRQxSwJJbvV8U5eZvmXVmfEgVm2gxiczB3YTYjwYpuEA18hSwCDH0g6-4f5w4uVIUBenPYVHaTqj6yF3XIvopD1hUebWcPPGICVkpsPS5pnwNpGvmiCovXCWig/s320/138_3894.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br /> <p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">They will all now have to totally start all over again for
no good reason other than greed</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Of the people who built these structures because they could
not be bothered to put up a simple 5/8” piece of dry wall , plaster or bricks
or other fire stopping measure.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Why have fire codes not addressed this construction when it
was found out how easily these row homes and apartments could be easily
destroyed in one simple fire so many years ago why were building code officials
all over the country not demanding this type of construction be banned and
existing structures be repaired to prevent this tragedy.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Why is it still being allowed.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A customer of mine has purchased a Custom High End Condo in
a High End Community in the North Hills of Pittsburgh and I was shocked at the
cheap and shoddy construction My customer had to be on the job every day
checking on work crews to make sure his unit was being built properly his unit
has 5/8” drywall in his garage while everyone else got the illegal ½” <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I feel sorry for any firefighter living in
this community because the building inspector is <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>totally useless when it comes to making sure
codes are complied with. In all the years I have done work in this community I
have never once ever seen him or any one else ever come by and check any home
or building that was under construction. When these structures start aging and
things start going wrong there is going to be a spectacular number of multi
alarm fires because the inspectors were asleep at the switch .It has already
started there And the insurance rates in this community will go thru the roof.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But look at all the tax revenue there taking in now.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Unfortunately for every 1 good contractor out there it seems
there is 3 bad ones I know I see it every day and I see the direct results in
what we pay for insurance , tax dollars ,Human Lives and <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>every other cost because of the negligence
that is going on in this state.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The UCC is slowly working its way in every where and many
bad contractors have gotten out of the business all together as well as
inspectors but there’s still a lot of work to be done.</p> <br /><p></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038769389877256204.post-71298919477564196852023-02-26T17:27:00.003-05:002023-02-26T17:27:45.798-05:00Copper Theft A Huge Concern In Today’s Troubled Residential Sector <p></p><p><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

Sector</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">By Nick Markowitz, Jr.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Security Mission</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A customer of mine recently bought an old building which at
one time was a home. It had been converted into a distributing business along
Pennsylvania 51 in the south hills. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">They were storing some junk in the building till they get
ready to start an expansion</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">project when they came to work one morning to find the front
door window broken. The thieves, however, were unable to get in by this method
so they broke a back window to gain access.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The owner called police and reported the break in but found
that nothing had been missing, or so they thought so until one of the owners
tried to use a sink. It was then that they discovered there was no water. In
fact, there was no water anywhere in the building. It was then that he went
downstairs to the basement to investigate. He found that the water had been
turned off. Immediately upon turning the valve back on he discovered why the
thieves really broke in. Almost every piece of copper piping in the basement
had been removed! </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Luckily the thieves turned off the water and gas lines
before they started ripping out all the copper pipe. The approximate worth of
what they stole is valued at $500.00, but that does not include the cost of
having a plumber put it all back in. In this case the owner was lucky that the
thieves thought enough to turn the main water valve off. In other cases this is
not always the way it has gone as water has been left to ruin the victim’s
home, such as in Stowe Township where copper thieves broke a gas line causing
the home to eventually explode long after they were gone. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the case of my customer, the piping was stolen off the
hot water heater and this could have lead to a fire or an explosion if the hot
water tank was left operating. Here the hot water tank could have overheated
after all the water boiled out. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In conclusion, copper thieves put all of us at risk with
such stunts. They have cost utility companies thousands of dollars in damage to
transmission facilities. Hopefully the authorities will be able to identify the
culprits as the thieves left their fingerprints behind. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">As
we move into the 21<sup>st</sup> century the old familiar telephone or what the
Industry calls </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">POTS
(Plain Old Telephone Service) is slowly disappearing and with this
disappearance</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Many
of the 24/7 reliabilities of POTS is disappearing with it as new digital
Technologies come on line and their pitfalls are revealed.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">One
of the most troublesome of these new technologies currently being marketed is
VOIP</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">This
stands for (Voice over Internet Protocol) </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Where
traditional Copper<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>phone lines are
replaced by an Internet connection to the home. This can be DSL, Cable Internet
etc.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">A 3<sup>rd</sup>
party provided <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>adapter such as Vonage ,
Broad Wing Etc. is plugged into the homes Internet network connection which
corded or cordless phones can be connected and calls can be made around the
world for virtually free.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">The
adapter can be a stand-alone adapter or it can be built into a home wireless
WIFI 802.11g compliant router.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">But
there are many pitfalls with this technology. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><span style="mso-list: Ignore;">1-<span style="font: 7.0pt "Times New Roman";"> </span></span></span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">No power no phone service
the VOIP adapter, Router and Modem must all have battery back up or phone lines
can go out.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><span style="mso-list: Ignore;">2-<span style="font: 7.0pt "Times New Roman";"> </span></span></span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Fire, Medical and Security Systems many times
will not transmit correctly or at all since VOIP is digital and transmits voice
in data packets communicators in alarm system often times fail to communicate.
No alarm panel on market at this time is approved to use VOIP service. There
are also problems with faxes and other communication devices not working
properly either.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><span style="mso-list: Ignore;">3-<span style="font: 7.0pt "Times New Roman";"> </span></span></span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">No Internet no phone when

such as Vonage to make sure correct address shows when 911 is called.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><span style="mso-list: Ignore;">5-<span style="font: 7.0pt "Times New Roman";"> </span></span></span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Just one unplugged wrong

will not work effectively with 3<sup>rd</sup> party VOIP systems</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">In
short for the money you save the risks you create unless you have a backup plan
and equiptment in place you could very well cost a life when the call for help
does not go out.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Many
fire and security dealers are recommending that either back up Cellular dialers
or Internet based monitoring adapters be part of a comprehensive alarm package
to insure continued service. With cellular preferred because if internet goes
out central monitoring station gets a signal that alarm is disconnected from
internet but until a tech can get on site and determine what is wrong and
correct it a Fire or burglary could take place and would not be communicated
especially during long power outage periods where cellular can be backed up for
24 hours and longer by battery. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Note:
Nov. 11, 2007 older Analog Cellular back ups will no longer work in many areas
Digital units must now be used.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">One
of the big dangers VOIP is posing to home owners is many are no longer paying
to have there alarms monitored because the extra cost for additional
equiptment.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Which
also could be detrimental to there insurance claim being settled if there
policy requires them to maintain a monitored Burglary and Fire system.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">PBX
Big Business Phone switching </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">PBX
stands for Private Branch Exchange and is a service used with in a large
corporation or multi building campus type setting. It is in essence a private
internal phone service </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">That
allows communication and switching with out having to go thru the phone company’s
lines.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Typically
a phone must dial 9 or 91 or similar prefix to be able to get an outside line
to phone company. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Dialing
of an extension is direct usually a 3 or 4 digit number. All equipment and
phone lines are internally owned or leased.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Fire
alarm system dialers should not be used thru a PBX because of the danger of the
PBX switching unit failing. Installers are strongly urged to find an outside
line and connect ahead of the PBX and not thru it. In cases where a out
building needs protection and only phone lines available are a PBX extension then
the PBX needs to be backed up with a 24 hr capable back up power source many
PBX units are already connected to emergency generators<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>but there have been many cases when power
switches back and forth the PBX can jam. In one particular campus I deal<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>with which has a PBX we choose to utilize underground
conduits to run dedicated zone circuits to each fire panel there by ensuring
the line to each building is supervised and the main fire panel at the
administration building is connected ahead of the PBX. The central station
receives 2 signals a general fire or trouble alarm from each building and if
PBX allows it detailed zone information from the out buildings communicator.
This way if the PBX fails at least a general emergency signal gets out.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">T1-
Phone Service for Business.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">This
technology uses a high speed 1 MB computer line which allows up to 23
individual phone lines to be split out of the T1 line which is brought into the
premise and connected to a box called a Channel bank the channel bank box some
times has a built in battery back up as with most AT&T installs but
carriers like One Communication /Choice One uses a separate plug in UPS for
power back up. In either case the unplugging of the unit allows the battery to
run down and phone lines to fail.T1 can be delivered using copper phone lines
in what’s known as a Fractional T1 or bundled copper lines known as a Bonded
T1<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>or by means of Fiber Optic Lines
which is full T1 service and which can run $1500.00 or more a month for the
service .</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Although
for the most part the service is dependable there are problems due to the fact
all the phone lines are carried on the one T1 line pair any failure in the T1
circuitry stops all 23 phone lines from operating all at once.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Smart
business people have back up POTS lines in place for emergency’s which can be
utilized when a T1 goes down but the vast majority does not.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Some
T1 carriers like One Communication also offer a 768 SDSL service off the unused
part of a T1 line when less than 23 phone lines are used thru the channel bank
as well</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">T1
can cause problems with older alarm digital dialers that utilize older formats
like </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">3/1
4/2 BFSK etc. Contact ID is best utilized with this service as it is a true
digital format</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">That
can over come the various noises Digital phone services can produce which
confuse older formats .With any of the new phone services contact Id or other
DTMF format is highly recommended along with a minimum of a weekly or monthly
dialer test of burg systems to make sure there working and when not the home or
business owner gets a trouble signal at there location. Fire systems must test
every 24 hours minimum.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">I
had a customer who switched from POTS to T1 service and who did not call and
notify me to check everything have a $250,000.00 loss of production time and
materials</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">When
there production line which requires the constant heating of a tar line freeze
up and bust when power went out to the plant and system did not call because
4/2 format would </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Not
transmit over the T1 service needless to say Contact ID 24 hr test and a back
up cellular system is now in place.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Fiber
Optic Phone Service for both residential and business</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">FIOS
a trade mark of Verizon Communications is one of several names for Fiber Optic
Provided phone Service</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">With
this service both High Speed Internet service, TV imaging and Phone Line
Service</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Come directly to the premise via a Fiber Optic
Cable where a box decodes the fiber cable and splits off to provide the various
services.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Fiber
optic service is generally very reliable and is kept backed up by an on premise
battery mounted in the Demarc box and battery’s located at various locations
thru out the community on pole mounted enclosures. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">The
problems with this service is when a telephone pole mounted switching ad
control box gets struck it can take down a whole street of customers or even a
whole community </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Once
the battery’s run out during an extended power outage phone service is out
unless phone provider gets on site with new batteries or generators to charge
up the batteries. Power outages of more than one day can and do happen during
weather extremes.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Cable
Company provided phone service.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Cable
TV Digital and VOIP Phone Service</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Most
cable TV companies provide 2 different types of phone service</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Digital
Cable Phone Service</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Is
where a coax cable is brought to the residence or business where it is brought
to a Demarc box where the various services are split out for TV Imaging,
Internet and Phone?</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">This
type of service again depends on a battery back up box located at the customers
premise and telephone pole mounted battery boxes with transponders every so
many blocks. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">The
Big Danger this service poses is the fact that if one of these transponders out
on the Telephone pole sticks which is frequent an entire community up to
several community’s</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Can
completely go down.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">This
along with Cable TV VOIP service is the least dependable of digital services
available from a Public Switched Network Service Provider.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">I
highly recommend against using this service however it is very low cost and
there for popular.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Cable
TV VOIP Service </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Is
a more stable form of VOIP compared to the 3<sup>rd</sup> party provided
adapters because the Cable Company owns the local switch however it has its own
problems.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">A
coax cable is brought to the premise where a splitter takes TV imaging on one path
and the internet and Phone service on the other the internet coax is brought to
the premise computer where the modem also provides the phone service to the
house by means of a RJ11 connection plug a wire is run from this plug to an
existing wall outlet </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">And
phone lines are then back feed from the battery backed up modem which lasts
aprox 2 hours.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I also highly recommend against this service
as only one simple wire disconnect from back of the modem takes out all the
phone service.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">I
have had severe problems with Cable TV installers who are not properly trained
in most cases causing my customers extreme harm because when they switched to Cable
TV phone from POTS connections were not properly made and alarms failed to
operate when needed in one case a customer had a Fire break out in there home
and signal did not go out luckily they were able to put the fire out before
major damage occurred. Had they not been home they would have lost there home.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Similar
but very different than VOIP this service is used in many call center type
business</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Where
each phone in an office is plugged into a network port and there is no KSU Key
System Unit box involved.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Although
this technology is hyped as the next big thing for business it is not ready for
prime time and I highly recommend any business using it with out understanding
the pit falls.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">1# each
phone requires a plug in power adapter unplug the adapter loose phone service.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">2#
Inter office communication is often difficult if not impossible as well as the
911 location ID problem.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">3#
Separate POTS lines still need brought in for Fax’s, alarms etc which will not
work on this service</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Every
customer of mine using this new technology by Cisco and Polygon and others
absolutely hates it and they are constantly plagued with technical issues and
echo’s and other noises as well as busy signals when not busy.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">You
can save a ton of money but is it worth it when you loose calls.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">This
is a unique service the phone company’s offers where instead of having to
install and purchase expensive switching equipment KSU<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">The
phone company does all the switching at the central office .It works like a
business phone system but with some limitations.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Most
of the time this is delivered on POTS Lines some times over T1 service as well</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">The
only drawback with this service is you must make sure to put the prefix 9 then
a pause when programming a dialer so it will dial properly.</span></p>

Phone Service</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">ISDN
is an older high speed data line 56-265k which was very popular before the
internet took off</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">It
is still used in many areas and many TV and radio stations use it for
transmission of there signals from studio to Transmitter sites and for remote
broadcasts and it was popular for individuals working at home for colleges and
computer and IT company’s <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>which utilize
a main frame computer system but phone carriers are trying to make this service
obsolete.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">The
ISDN line is a 4 wire connection 2 wires data in 2 wires data out it hooks to a
terminal box at the premise and at the terminal box 2 phone lines were able to
be obtained for telephone use<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>again the
problem of power being needed like other modern phone services at the premise
is the chief problem.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">ISDN
is going away and I have only worked on a handful of these systems in 25 years
of Telco work.</span></p>

and remedies</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">With
all digital phone services I recommend the following practices to help insure
that a signal will get thru.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">1#
when ever possible have the alarms digital dialer use a DTMF format such as
Contact ID ,Acron or Ademco Super fast which can overcome digital line noises
.It also has the advantage of communication in under 10 seconds and provides
detailed zone information up to 999 different events</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">2#
If DTMF format is not provided by the Alarm dialer consider using a FSK format
such as SIA or SK 4/2<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>or use a 3/1 or
4/2 format which uses parity this is a special mathematical number sent at the
end of the transmission which makes sure the signal was properly received at
the central station if not the dialer will continue to try and communicate
successfully.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">3#
set communicators to highest number of communicator retry’s 10 or more if
possible</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">To
help make sure signal gets thru. In case of Fire alarms with dual phone lines
follow panel maker’s directions for retries.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">4#
use the panels test feature set it at a minimum of 30 day weekly or daily if
possible to test the line and keep accurate tracking at the central station.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">This
also will cause a trouble signal at the protected premise and hopefully
customer will call and complain when they get a fail to communication alert.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">5#
back up the provided battery unit with various services with a bigger UPS to
ensure 24 hours minimum service. And remember these UPS need checked
occasionally and batteries changed just like the alarm check both when on a
service call.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">6# put
a reminder note in your central station billing that customers call you when
they change phone carriers and that they test there systems to make sure they
still communicate before the phone provider leaves.</span></p>
