Certificate № 1758776886102
Typical Migration Paths for Melbourne
While each site is unique, the upgrade logic is consistent — reuse healthy infrastructure, move control to a modern AJAX platform, and minimise disruption throughout.
The enclosure and PCB are decommissioned, but zone wiring is retained where practical. Door/window contacts and ceiling PIRs are mapped to the AJAX Hub via a MultiTransmitter, preserving your wiring investment.
Legacy keypads are replaced with an AJAX KeyPad at convenient entry points. Existing remotes are superseded by the AJAX app and, if needed, new key fobs/cards for clean, role-based access.
External sirens on legacy systems are commonly swapped for AJAX StreetSiren to ensure clean integration, health monitoring and reliable tamper detection.
MotionCam detectors bring visual verification to cut false alarms; LeaksProtect and FireProtect 2 extend safety beyond intrusion; outdoor coverage is added with perimeter devices — without trenching new cable.
Dual-path communication (Ethernet/Wi-Fi plus a cellular module where specified) keeps alerts flowing during local internet outages or NBN works common across Melbourne suburbs.
Process & Timeline: From Photo Audit to Cutover
Bosch, DSC and Hills takeovers run smoothly when scoped properly. Here’s exactly how SIPKO Security handles your legacy panel migration from first contact to cutover day.
Photo Audit
Provide clear photos of the panel/enclosure, keypad, siren location(s), and any outbuildings. An engineer identifies what can be reused and which AJAX parts are needed.
On-site Verification
We confirm zone counts, cable condition, power availability, RF conditions, and any height/access restrictions to validate the upgrade path.
Design & Mapping
Legacy zones are mapped to AJAX via MultiTransmitter or replaced with wireless where appropriate. Outdoor coverage, hub, keypad and siren placements are all planned.
Preparation
Devices are pre-programmed with user profiles, zones, and naming conventions so the on-site window is short and predictable.
Cutover Day
The old panel is isolated and removed, cabling is landed as designed, new hardware is installed, and the system is commissioned. Existing users are added to the app.
Test & Handover
We test arming/disarming, alarm paths, sirens, pet logic and camera verification, then provide a concise handover sheet and training.

Cost, Trade-in & What Drives the Budget
AJAX takeovers are cost-effective because you don’t pay to rewire your property. The total depends on a few clear drivers, so you only invest where it matters and keep the upgrade budget under control.
Key cost drivers
How many wired sensors can be kept vs replaced. Reusing healthy cabling and contacts reduces labour and avoids wall works.
Gardens, driveways and sheds often benefit from outdoor devices — added coverage without trenching new cable.
Number of MotionCam detectors for event-driven photo checks to cut false alarms and speed responses.
Dual-path communications (Ethernet/Wi-Fi + cellular) and any 24/7 monitoring requirements.
Smart lock / intercom integrations where required for unified alarm + entry workflows.
Compliance, Monitoring & Ongoing Support
For Melbourne customers migrating from Bosch, DSC or Hills, quality is not just about the new hardware — it’s about how the takeover is documented and structured. A licensed migration with a proper device list, zone map and user roles simplifies future maintenance and supports insurer discussions from day one.
Compliance & maintainability essentials
Work performed by qualified technicians, documented to local requirements.
Device list, zone map, event log policy, and role-based user access records.
Video-verification workflows reduce false alarms and improve response quality.
Health checks, firmware updates, and battery status reports keep the system in shape.
Annual/semi-annual visits test sirens, verify pet settings, and align perimeter to how you use the property.

Existing cable runs mapped to AJAX via MultiTransmitter
Door & Window Contacts
Healthy wired sensors retained and re-enrolled
Enclosure & Power
Cabinet and 240V supply reused where practical
Siren Cabling
Existing siren runs assessed and reused or upgraded
A Bosch-to-AJAX upgrade in Melbourne typically takes one day for a single-storey home. You keep what works, replace what limits you, and walk away with a fully modern, app-controlled system — without a single wall opened.
DSC Alarm Panel Replacement with AJAX Hub 2 / Hub 4G
DSC PowerSeries and NEO panels are solid legacy systems — but they rely on a single communication path, lack app-first control, and can’t support visual verification. Replacing the DSC panel with an AJAX Hub 2 or Hub 4G brings your existing wiring into a modern, cloud-managed platform without touching a single wall.
AJAX Hub 2
Ethernet + Wi-Fi dual-path, supports up to 100 devices and 50 users. Ideal for homes and small offices where NBN is stable. Encrypted cloud, remote arm/disarm, full event log and OTA updates.
AJAX Hub 4G
Ethernet + Wi-Fi + built-in 4G cellular — three independent communication paths. Keeps alerts flowing during NBN outages. Recommended for monitoring-connected sites, larger homes, and any property where communication resilience is critical.
What Changes in the Replacement
The DSC PCB and keypad are decommissioned — everything else is assessed for reuse.
Panel & PCB Out
The DSC control board is removed and replaced with the AJAX Hub. The enclosure and 240V supply are retained where practical to minimise installation time.
Zone Wiring Retained
Existing zone cables are landed on an AJAX MultiTransmitter, mapping your wired door contacts and PIRs directly into the new hub — no re-cabling required.
Keypad Replaced
The DSC keypad is swapped for an AJAX KeyPad at the main entry point. Additional keypads or key fobs can be added for multi-user or multi-entry sites.
Siren Assessed
Existing external siren cabling is tested. Where compatible, it is reused with an AJAX StreetSiren for clean integration and tamper monitoring.
MotionCam Added
Where visual verification is required, AJAX MotionCam detectors replace or supplement existing PIRs — providing photo-on-alarm evidence to cut false call-outs.
App & Users Configured
All users are enrolled in the AJAX app with role-based permissions. Arming schedules, notification paths, and event logging are configured before handover.

Your existing wiring investment is preserved, your perimeter coverage is maintained, and your new AJAX hub delivers app control, dual-path comms and MotionCam verification — all without opening a single wall across your Melbourne property.
Hard-Wired Alarm Conversion to AJAX Wireless System Melbourne
Older hard-wired alarm systems are reliable but rigid — adding a sensor means running new cable, and the control panel has no path to modern app management or visual verification. AJAX conversion reuses your existing wiring as the backbone while replacing the control logic with a wireless, cloud-managed hub. The result is a modern system built on infrastructure you’ve already paid for.
No App Control
Hard-wired panels rely on a physical keypad only. Remote arming, disarming, and event visibility require a full panel replacement — or so it seems.
Single Communication Path
Most legacy wired systems report via a single PSTN or NBN path. An internet outage silences the alarm entirely — no backup cellular path exists.
Expanding Coverage is Costly
Adding a sensor to a new room or outbuilding means running new cable through walls, ceilings and roof spaces — expensive, disruptive, and slow.
Full App Control from Day One
The AJAX Hub replaces the legacy panel brain. Arm, disarm, view live events, manage users and receive push notifications — all from the AJAX app on any smartphone.
Dual-Path + Cellular Backup
AJAX Hub 4G adds a built-in cellular module alongside Ethernet and Wi-Fi. Three independent paths ensure alerts reach you and the monitoring centre regardless of NBN status.
Wireless Expansion, No Cable
New zones — gardens, garages, sheds — are covered by wireless AJAX devices using Jeweller radio. No trenching, no drilling through walls, no disruption to your property.
Your hard-wired investment is preserved, not discarded. AJAX MultiTransmitter maps your existing zone cables directly into the new hub — so every door contact and PIR you’ve already paid for continues to protect your Melbourne property.
Ajax MultiTransmitter: When Existing Wired Sensors Can Be Reused
Ajax MultiTransmitter can be considered when an older wired alarm has existing sensors and cabling that may still be suitable for use. This can help modernise a Bosch, DSC or Hills-style setup while reducing unnecessary wall chasing.
Suitability must be checked onsite. Cable condition, sensor type, zone layout, tamper condition and the existing panel configuration all affect whether wired sensors can be reused safely and reliably. If reuse is not suitable, SIPKO Security can recommend a cleaner wireless or hybrid Ajax upgrade.
What Ajax MultiTransmitter Does
MultiTransmitter connects suitable wired alarm zones to an Ajax Hub. During commissioning, each reusable zone is tested, named and configured so existing contacts or detectors can be managed through the Ajax app.
- Up to 18 wired zones per unit depending on the final system design and site requirements.
- Wireless communication to the Ajax Hub using Ajax radio technology after the wired zones are connected to the interface.
- Supports common loop configurations such as NC, NO and EOL where the existing wiring and sensor condition are suitable.
- Helps keep useful wired infrastructure while replacing the outdated alarm control panel and improving app-based management.
1. Existing Wired Sensors
Door contacts, PIRs, glass-break detectors, panic inputs or other wired zones are checked before any reuse decision is made.
2. Ajax MultiTransmitter
Suitable wired zones are connected, configured and assigned clear names so the old alarm layout becomes easier to understand and maintain.
3. Ajax Hub and App
The Ajax Hub receives zone events, sends app alerts and allows users, areas and notifications to be managed from a modern interface.
What May Be Reused After Testing
- Wired door and window magnetic contacts
- Wired PIR motion detectors in suitable condition and locations
- Wired glass-break detectors, panic buttons or duress inputs where compatible
- Existing zone cable runs where continuity, resistance and tamper condition are acceptable
- Some siren or power cabling, depending on compatibility and installation condition
What Is Usually Replaced or Upgraded
- Legacy control panel PCB and outdated alarm firmware
- Old keypad, usually replaced with Ajax KeyPad, app access or key fobs
- PSTN or single-path communication modules that no longer suit modern monitoring
- Aged, faulty, badly placed or unreliable sensors that fail onsite testing
AJAX Alarm Upgrade for Melbourne Houses (Single Storey)
Single-storey Melbourne homes are the most straightforward Bosch, DSC or Hills takeover scenario — all legacy zones are on one level, existing wiring is reused via MultiTransmitter, and the entire cutover is completed in a single visit with no wall chasing.
Typical Single-Storey Zone Layout
One Hub Covers the Whole Property
A single AJAX Hub 2 or Hub 4G placed centrally handles all zones on a single level. Jeweller radio reaches every corner of a standard Melbourne single-storey home without repeaters.
Existing Wiring Reused via MultiTransmitter
All wired door contacts and PIRs from the legacy panel are landed on an AJAX MultiTransmitter — preserving your perimeter coverage without opening a single wall.
MotionCam in Key Interior Zones
Living areas and hallways benefit most from MotionCam — photo-on-alarm verification confirms real intrusions before any response is dispatched, cutting false call-outs.
Completed in One Day
Single-storey upgrades are scoped, installed, tested and handed over in a single visit. Most Melbourne homes are fully operational on AJAX by end of day.
Outdoor Perimeter Without Trenching
Garages, driveways and garden paths get wireless AJAX outdoor detectors — no cable runs, no concrete cutting, no disruption to landscaping.
A standard Melbourne single-storey home is the ideal AJAX upgrade scenario. Existing wiring is reused, all zones are on one level, and the entire system is live before we leave your property.
AJAX Security System Upgrade for Double Storey Homes
Double-storey Melbourne homes add planning considerations to a Bosch, DSC or Hills takeover — staircase coverage, upper-floor bedroom zones, and signal routing across two levels. AJAX handles this cleanly: a single hub covers both floors, existing wiring is reused via MultiTransmitter, and no new cable runs between floors are required.
Two Levels, One Takeover
Upper floors are covered by wireless AJAX devices communicating directly to the hub below. Existing wired sensors from your Bosch, DSC or Hills system on both floors are reused via MultiTransmitter — no new cable runs between floors, no wall chasing.
Signal Across Two Floors
AJAX Jeweller radio operates at 868 MHz — a frequency that penetrates timber, plasterboard and concrete floors reliably. Most double-storey Melbourne homes need no repeaters.
Staircase Zone Planning
The staircase is a critical internal zone — a single MotionProtect or MotionCam positioned correctly covers movement between floors, eliminating the need for multiple detectors.
Upper Floor Bedroom Perimeter
Bedroom windows on the upper floor are protected with wireless Door Protect sensors — no wiring between floors required, battery-powered and tamper-monitored.
Typically Two-Day Scope
Larger double-storey homes with extensive perimeter coverage or outdoor works may require a second visit. Single-storey-equivalent layouts are often completed in one day.
MotionCam on Both Levels
Living areas downstairs and a hallway or landing upstairs are the priority MotionCam zones — providing visual verification across both floors of the property.
Single Hub, Full Coverage
One AJAX Hub 2 or Hub 4G placed on the ground floor manages all devices across both levels — no secondary hub required for standard double-storey Melbourne homes.
Every double-storey upgrade is scoped on-site. Zone counts, signal paths and device placement are confirmed during the on-site verification visit before any hardware is ordered — ensuring the right coverage for your specific Melbourne property layout.
Strata & apartment-friendly upgrade. AJAX wireless installation requires no drilling through shared walls, no cable runs through common areas, and no strata approval for standard sensor placement inside your lot.
Apartment Alarm System Upgrade to AJAX Without Building Works
Apartments with legacy Bosch, DSC or Hills panels present unique takeover constraints — strata rules, shared walls, and no cable runs through common areas. AJAX is purpose-built for this: every replacement device is wireless, battery-powered, and mounts with minimal fixings. The old panel is removed and replaced with an AJAX Hub inside your lot — no building works, no strata approval required.
Front Door & Balcony
Door Protect sensors on the front door and balcony sliding door cover the two primary entry points of any Melbourne apartment — battery-powered, no wiring.
Window Sensors
Wireless Door Protect sensors on all accessible windows — including louvre and casement types — provide perimeter coverage without any wall penetration.
MotionCam Verification
A single MotionCam in the living area covers the main interior zone and provides photo-on-alarm verification — critical for apartments where false alarms affect neighbours.
Smoke & Leak Detection
FireProtect 2 and LeaksProtect extend safety beyond intrusion — covering kitchen, laundry and bathroom leak risks common in apartment buildings.
Dual-Path Comms
Hub 4G provides Ethernet, Wi-Fi and cellular backup — essential in high-rise buildings where NBN reliability varies and monitoring continuity is required.
Strata-Friendly Documentation
Full device list and installation record provided at handover — useful if strata management requests evidence of the security installation within your lot.
AJAX wireless devices mount cleanly inside your lot, communicate through walls without cables, and deliver app-first control, MotionCam verification and dual-path monitoring — all without touching a shared wall or common area across your Melbourne apartment building.
Townhouse Security System Retrofit with AJAX Wireless Devices
Townhouses often need a different alarm design from detached homes or apartments. A retrofit may need to cover the front entry, rear courtyard, garage, stairwell, upper-floor bedrooms and shared-wall limitations without opening walls or running unnecessary new cable. SIPKO Security upgrades older Bosch, DSC and Hills-style alarm setups with AJAX wireless and hybrid devices, reusing suitable existing wiring where it makes sense.
Ground Floor Perimeter
Front doors, rear courtyard doors and accessible ground-floor windows are usually the first retrofit priority. AJAX DoorProtect devices can secure these openings without chasing cable through finished walls or shared townhouse structures.
Upper Floor Bedrooms
Bedroom windows and balcony doors can be protected with battery-powered sensors. This avoids inter-floor cabling and keeps the retrofit cleaner for occupied townhouses, rentals and recently renovated homes.
MotionCam on Key Internal Paths
Living areas, staircases and upper landings are practical locations for MotionCam or MotionProtect devices. Placement is chosen to confirm movement through the home while reducing nuisance alerts from pets, sunlight and daily movement patterns.
Garage & Courtyard
Integrated garages, carports, side paths and courtyard gates can be added to the alarm design with suitable indoor or outdoor AJAX devices. This helps protect the areas often approached before the main living space.
No Cables Through Party Walls
AJAX wireless devices communicate with the hub using Jeweller radio technology. For townhouse retrofits, this can reduce the need for invasive cabling through party walls, stair voids or finished interiors.
Siren Placement
Internal sirens can be positioned for clear sound inside the home, while external siren placement depends on facade access, owners corporation rules and the layout of the townhouse complex.
For many Melbourne townhouses, the best result is a mixed approach: reuse healthy existing wiring through an AJAX MultiTransmitter where it is available, then add wireless AJAX devices for upstairs rooms, garage areas, courtyard access and other zones that are difficult to cable cleanly.
Rental Property Alarm Upgrade (Landlord-Friendly AJAX Systems)
Replacing a Bosch, DSC or Hills panel in a rental property is straightforward with AJAX — role-based user access means landlords retain full system control while tenants get arming/disarming rights only. No shared codes, no lock-in, and the system stays with the property when tenants change.
- ✓ Retain master admin access — tenants can never change system settings or add devices
- ✓ Remove tenant access instantly when a tenancy ends — no locksmith, no code change
- ✓ View full event log remotely — arming history, alarm events, and system health
- ✓ System stays with the property — no reinstallation between tenancies
- ✓ Supports insurer requirements for professionally maintained alarm systems
- ✓ Remote firmware updates and health checks without visiting the property
- ✓ Arm and disarm from the AJAX app — no physical keypad required
- ✓ Receive push notifications for alarm events and system status
- ✓ Key fob option for tenants who prefer physical arming at the door
- ✓ No access to system settings, zone configuration, or device management
- ✓ Multiple tenant users supported — each with their own app login
- ✓ Clear, simple interface — no technical knowledge required to operate
Full Admin Control
Arm & Disarm Only
Monitoring & Reporting
Common Rental Scenarios We Handle
We reset or replace the panel, enrol the landlord as admin, and set up tenant access with restricted permissions — clean slate, no legacy codes.
Old tenant users are deleted from the AJAX app in seconds. New tenants are enrolled with fresh credentials — no locksmith, no code change, no site visit required.
AJAX supports multi-property management from a single app. Each property is a separate hub — landlords monitor all sites, event logs, and system health from one dashboard.
A read-only manager role is configured — the property manager receives fault alerts and can coordinate service without any ability to change system settings.
AJAX systems are monitoring-ready from day one. We connect to a professional monitoring centre and provide the documentation landlords need for insurer compliance.
Property Manager Checklist
What SIPKO Security delivers on every rental property upgrade
Small Business Alarm Upgrade from DSC to AJAX in Melbourne
Many Melbourne shops, offices and hospitality venues still run older DSC alarm panels. An AJAX upgrade can keep suitable existing wiring in place while adding app control, clearer user management, visual alarm verification and a monitoring-ready setup.
- Existing DSC zone wiring can be connected through AJAX MultiTransmitter where the cabling and sensors are suitable
- Remote arming and disarming for owners, managers and authorised staff without shared alarm codes
- MotionCam verification helps confirm what triggered an alarm before a response is arranged
- Ethernet and cellular communication options help keep alerts active if the main internet connection fails
- Device list, zone naming and user setup can be documented for insurance, lease or internal business records
- Work can be planned outside normal trading hours to reduce disruption for staff and customers
After-Hours Arming
Arm or disarm the alarm remotely when closing routines change or staff are off-site
Staff Access Control
Give each authorised person their own access and remove permissions when roles change
Visual Verification
Photo verification helps distinguish real intrusion events from accidental triggers
System Records
Zone naming, device details and setup notes are prepared for practical business use
Retail Store Security System Migration to AJAX (After Hours Protection)
Retail stores face the highest after-hours risk of any small business. AJAX migration delivers visual verification, instant app alerts, and dual-path comms — so you know exactly what’s happening at your store at 2 AM, from anywhere.
After-Hours Alarm Triggers
AJAX MotionCam captures a photo series the moment motion is detected after close. You see the image in your app before deciding whether to call police — eliminating costly false call-outs.
Entry Point Coverage
Front door, rear loading dock, and roller door contacts are all mapped from your existing DSC wiring via MultiTransmitter — no new cable runs through shopfront walls.
Staff Arming Schedules
Automated arming schedules align with trading hours. Staff arm/disarm via the AJAX app or key fob — no shared codes, and access is removed instantly when staff leave.
Dual-Path Monitoring
Ethernet/Wi-Fi plus cellular backup ensures your monitoring centre receives alerts even if the store’s NBN drops overnight — critical for high-value retail stock protection.
MotionCam is the defining upgrade when migrating a retail store from Bosch, DSC or Hills to AJAX. Photo evidence at the moment of alarm means faster genuine responses and zero unnecessary police call-outs — something legacy panels simply cannot deliver.
Warehouse Alarm System Modernisation with AJAX Wireless Sensors
Large floor plates, high ceilings, roller doors, and loading docks create unique security challenges. AJAX wireless sensors cover vast open spaces without cable runs across concrete floors — and MotionCam Outdoor protects perimeter access points around the clock.
High-Bay Motion Coverage
AJAX MotionProtect and MotionCam handle high-ceiling warehouse bays — wide-angle detection covers large open areas without multiple overlapping sensors.
Roller Door & Loading Dock
Roller doors and loading dock entries are covered with Door Protect sensors — wired contacts from the legacy system are reused via MultiTransmitter where present.
Perimeter & Yard Coverage
MotionCam Outdoor and MotionProtect Outdoor cover external yards, car parks and fence lines — weatherproof, wireless, no trenching required.
Fire & Leak Safety
FireProtect 2 and LeaksProtect extend the AJAX system to cover fire risk zones and plant room leaks — unified in one platform with the intrusion system.
Cellular Backup
Industrial estates often have unreliable NBN. Hub 4G adds built-in cellular — three independent paths keep monitoring active regardless of internet status.
Multi-User Access
Shift supervisors, security staff, and management each get role-based app access — arming schedules align with shift patterns automatically.
Office Security System Upgrade with AJAX Access Control Integration
Modern offices need more than a siren — they need role-based access, after-hours arming schedules, and integration between the alarm system and door access. AJAX delivers all three in a single platform, replacing legacy panels without rewiring the office.
Smart Lock Integration
AJAX Relay connects to electric strikes and magnetic locks — arming the alarm automatically locks the office, disarming unlocks it.
Staff Access Cards & Fobs
AJAX Pass cards and key fobs give staff physical access control — each credential is logged with a timestamp in the event history.
Arming Schedules
Automated arming at close of business — the system arms itself at a set time, with override capability for late workers via the app.
MotionCam in Server & Reception
High-value areas like server rooms and reception get MotionCam verification — photo evidence on every after-hours trigger.
AJAX Access Control Features
Unified alarm + access in one platform
One platform, one app. AJAX unifies intrusion detection, access control, and monitoring in a single system — no separate access control software, no third-party integration headaches.
Multi-Tenant Building Alarm Standardisation Using AJAX Platform
Mixed-use buildings often grow around separate alarm systems, tenant codes and service arrangements. An AJAX upgrade can bring common areas, commercial tenancies and owner-controlled zones into one structured setup, while still keeping each tenant’s access separate.
- Main lobby door contacts
- Lift lobby motion detection
- Car park perimeter sensors
- Building siren & strobe
- Shared AJAX Hub for owner-managed areas
- Individual tenant partitions
- Separate arm and disarm control per tenancy
- Tenant-specific app permissions
- MotionCam coverage where visual verification is required
- Event history separated by tenant area
- Central visibility across assigned building areas
- Admin access for authorised management users
- Building-wide event history for shared zones
- Remote system health checks
- Monitoring centre connection when required
One AJAX Setup
Common areas and tenant spaces can be organised inside one planned AJAX alarm structure.
Tenant Isolation
Each tenant controls only their own partition, without access to neighbouring tenancies.
Cleaner Documentation
A standardised setup makes alarm zones, users and service records easier to document.
Simpler Servicing
SIPKO Security can service the building as one coordinated system instead of separate alarm arrangements.
AJAX partitioning allows tenants to manage their own areas while authorised building users keep oversight of shared zones, alarms and system status. This is a practical upgrade path for Melbourne buildings that need clearer access control, cleaner servicing and more consistent alarm management.
Hospitality-specific AJAX upgrade. Cafés, bars and restaurants need alarm control that works around late closes, staff changes, cash handling and rear-lane access without interrupting service.
Hospitality Venue Security Upgrade for Cafés, Bars and Restaurants
Hospitality venues in Melbourne often have long trading hours, multiple staff members, back-of-house storage, delivery access and cash areas. AJAX can replace an older alarm panel with app-based control, verified alerts and flexible user permissions, while keeping the upgrade practical for an active venue.
Late-Night Close Arming
Staff can arm the venue from the AJAX app, keypad or key fob at close. Owners can receive confirmation that the venue was secured after the last shift.
High Staff Turnover
New staff can be given the right level of access, while former staff can be removed quickly. This avoids shared codes staying active longer than they should.
Cash Handling & Safe Areas
Back offices, safes and manager areas can be protected with MotionCam verification, helping owners understand what triggered an alarm after hours.
Multiple Entry Points
Front doors, rear lane entries, storage rooms and cellar access can be covered together. Existing wired contacts may be reused through MultiTransmitter where suitable.
Kitchen Fire Risk
FireProtect 2 can be added in suitable kitchen, storage or back-of-house areas so fire alerts and intrusion alerts are managed from the same AJAX system.
Recommended Device Layout
Typical café, bar or restaurant configuration
Installation can be planned around trading hours. SIPKO Security can scope the upgrade and schedule the work to minimise disruption for staff, customers and daily service.
AJAX MultiTransmitter Setup for Existing Wired Alarm Zones
AJAX MultiTransmitter allows many existing wired alarm zones to be brought into a modern AJAX system without chasing walls or replacing every sensor. SIPKO Security can assess the current Bosch, DSC or Hills wiring, check which door contacts, PIRs, glass-break detectors or panic inputs are still suitable, and connect reusable zones to the AJAX Hub through MultiTransmitter.
Existing Zones Checked
Each cable and sensor is tested before reuse. Faulty contacts, damaged wiring or unreliable detectors are identified before they are connected to the new AJAX system.
Loop Type Configured
Each zone is configured for its actual wiring type, including NC, NO or EOL resistor configuration. Mixed zone types can be handled within the same MultiTransmitter setup.
Zones Added to AJAX Hub
After commissioning, each reused wired zone appears in the AJAX app with a clear name, assigned area and alert behaviour, so the system is easier to manage than the old panel.
