As some of you know I currently work at a school while training. They've asked me if I'd be willing to take over maintenance of the CCTV system here. Not a problem, or so I thought, until someone told me that an "unmaintained system by a non-accredited installer would not stand up in court if...

I know I could cobble together my own setup with a relay and bits, but does anyone know of a pack to fulfill my needs?
