prob need to omit un used zones,either by programming or inserting links in the terminals,factory settings normally enable all zones,have you tried linking out all zones then setting the system?
Alarm panel

zones 5-6 are already linked out in the panel. i've linked out 1-4 and the when i set the alarm it counts down and sets itself. With any of the 1-4 zones not linked out the alarm double bleeps like the sound of when a door contact is open and wont set. I have tried to link one out at a time but it still has the same effect and only sets itself with all zones linked out.

thats what it is supposed to do.
if you have a zone not connected it will complain, it thinks for the sake of argument that a door is open

I know beezer but there is no door contacts, just 4 zones which are all pir's. If there was a problem with one of the zones then by linking out one zone at a time it should clear but it only does this when all zones are linked out.

i do not know what you may or may not know, i can only go by what you post. hence my reply
i suggest you go to my first reply, manufacturers dont like giving out engineer manuals. I know its anoying knowinhg it could be some thing very simple, but look at the hasle and grief it caused you in the mean time
put some links in zones 3 and 4 then try it,i seem to remember these being immediate zones on a factory programme
link out 2,3,and 4,identify a pir in the house that wont be triggered by messing around by the panel,connect this to zone 1 and arm the system,see what happens

now we are getting somewhere,sounds as if the power supply to the pirs may be down
Ahh, your right, just got the meter on the 13v out for the pir's and no voltage present. Also just found the 1.6A fuse blown and next to it says bell/strobe. Cant beleive i never spotted it
What do you think blew the fuse? The alarm has never worked since i moved into the house?

could be a knackered sounder/strobe,dont think the pir supply is linked to that though
you may want to set it off just to check the sounder operates and the fuse stays intact,at a sensible time of course,you may have tried it already
