Thanks to advice over in Introductions I switched gears to focus on the security system before putting in cameras. From my past reading I've put this list together. The starter is to secure the exterior doors and door to garage, all ground-level windows that would be reasonably accessible and monitor just the ground floor motion. The ability to add on over time is nice with the setup and I appreciate guidance you've given others in the past since it informed these assets. FWIW, I have a two-story home with finished basement. Questions I have:
- Do I really need 3 panels to start, or just one upstairs in the master and one in between the garage and front entries?
- Can I power my panel from my existing server's UPS or do I have to have a separate one for the security system?
- Do I need the higher power transformer in the case that the security system needs its own backup?
