    We have an accenta alarm,unit bleeps but doesn't set.?

    Follow jim'll fix it's advice, if the system then sets that alarm sensor is faulty and requires replacement. If it still doesn't set then it's cable or zone fault.

    burglar alarm

    Each device should ideally be on it's own cable wired back to the main control unit. Typically depending on system you use 4 to 6 cores for PIRs and 2 to 4 cores for door contacts and PA's. Bells generally use 5 cores. The easiest way to do it is to run an 8 core to each point this allows for...

    Answers on a postcard pls

    Hmmm possibility I suppose but pretty shoddy way of doing it isn't it. Ill have a look behind the back box. Would there also be a live at the light end as well ?

    Just been re dedecorating in my mums house pulled the switches off to remove the wall paper and found this. I know the switch wire is flex so obviously will be replacing this. However, what concerns me is the green cable twisted with the live this disappears through the back box into...

    Scantronic 9800

    As breezer said if the documentation says sounder on circuit 8 they are just using the tamper terminals of zone 8. My guess is you took this off the wall to stope the noise, put that back on properly making sure you close the tamper switch and the 8 should disappear

As far as Part P goes where do I stand on supplying power for the alarm system/cameras etc. Can I connect a spur from a ring main, wire directly from the Cu on a spare way ? 2nd question may sound daft but as kitchens...

    Scantronic 9800

    It's LV but hey ho no worries. If the 8 appeared then you prob find you got something connected to zone 8 my guess would be a door contact try shutting all internal and external doors see if the 8 disappears.

    when i connect alarm the alarm goes off

    You may be able to get a manual off the internet but my point is unless you know what your doing it's not much use. To be fair the panel may be f***ed anyway they don't have much of a rep for reliability.

    Scantronic 9800

    Lt = Lid tamper the lid of the big white box is not fixed correctly. If you look at the top of the box you'll see a thin piece of metal and a microswitch this switch needs to be closed rr= installer reset required. This depends on who installed the system and if the code is still default need...

    when i connect alarm the alarm goes off

    After deciphering your message I think the problem you've got is that the panel has defaulted. Do you have any manuals for the control panel ? Sounds like it needs to be reprogrammed. Do you have anything connected to zones 7 and 8 ? If so what ?

    optima compact 6 zone

    Disconnect the bell first as soon as you remove the bell cover the bell should activate. Then disconnect the intrernal battery. You can then disconnect the mains and battery. MAy be worth changing the external siren at the same time
