Hi Sparkymarka, many thanks for confirming. Sounds like it's all working the way it's supposed to! (I've also carried out a walk test and purposefully triggered the alarm and all seems to be working fine).
Also, many thanks again to Bigsosij and T1GERIII.
Hi both, just a brief update....The 83/4 shock reset worked a treat and I can now set the alarm! Thank you so much for all your help and guidance.
(Just to understand, when I set the alarm the display on the keypad briefly flashes 'Zone 5 open' but it then sets and all appears to be working...
Of course I didn't programme anything. I'm apparently a complete idiot!
I just re-wired and hoped for the best.
Right, I shall (properly) read Bigsosij's earlier comment, take another look at the manual and take things from there.
Due to work and Christmas, I won't get around to this until...
Bit of an update...
Old set up
Viper terminal wiring as follows:
SET/UNSET (no wire) but linked to OV,
+ve (red wire to OP3 at control unit),
-ve (black wire to 0V AUX at control unit),
alarm (yellow and blue wires),
A/T (green and white wires).
As you'll remeber from above, initial...
Thank you, Bigsosij.
you say 'only a few seconds', but all the 0V Auxs are wrapped together and I'll probably get all clumsy when trying to seperate the wires. I appreciate it does sound long-winded but I'm thinking of powering it down and taking my time to seperate the wires and rewire calmly...
'If the vipers have no power they will go open circuit.' thank you, Bigsosij - hopefully that explains the issue that I'm seeing when trying to set the system.
'just pull the aux fuse whilst u connect the wire in' - so, for clarity, do you mean - enter installer mode, open the cover (with...
Thank you, Bigsoij. Sounds like I should re-wire into 12V (like the manual said!). I was just wondering if wiring into 0V would give an 'open' Zone.
On a related note...if I enter into installer mode, switch off the mains, remove the cover and disconnet the battery to re-wire into 12V - will...
Thank you, T1GERIII.
Probably no surprise, but your comment is in-line with what the manual says! I will try re-wiring into 12V AUX. Would wiring into the 0V Aux give an 'open' Zone when trying to set the system?
Maybe I mis-labelled when I disconnected the 9800 system but is there any reason...
Hi, due to a knackered keypad, I’ve tried to transfer an old 9800 system over to a newer 9651 system, for my parents.
I’ve taken a global tamper approach and things are going OKish.
I’ve powered up the system (linking the kick start pins etc) and I’ve assigned names to the 7 Zones (I’ve linked...
