    I want to upgrade an old accenta wired system as it is starting to act up.

    It has wired window sensors & a few PIRS ,

    I want to replace control unit , external wired box and control panel .

    I wonder is there a wired system with added connection to my wireless broadband that can communicate to me via android app/email/text if alarm triggers,

    The Siemens SPC 4300 range or the New Risco LightSYS2 are what your looking for.

    Koolkid, I'm thinking of replacing my system with the lightsys2 that you mentioned and wondering what you think? Have you installed these yourself yet? They seem quite new.

    I am installing them regularly. A very good system that will do all those alerts and give you remote control via the app & browser for free .

    Thanks Koolkid.

    I would like to upgrade my old panel to the Lightsys2. There is only one things that concerns me. I think I'll have to replace all my inertia/contacts because the risco panel doesn't handle pulses from these sensors. I currently have HKC inertia/contacts (or equiv) on all doors and windows so these would need replaced as far as I know!p. Would this be correct?

    Thanks again.

    Thanks again.

    The Lightsys has analyze inputs so the HKC sensors will work with the system.
