OK - getting somewhere now - I definitely think the theory of one box disrupting the other applies to this case. Here are the results of changing the Strb terminal: - Both cables removed and untwisted = Front bell box still flashes, Rear Bell box goes out - A single cable in the...

Thanks again for the quick reply. So I believe both are wired directly to the board - each of the SAB terminals has a pair of cables twisted together going into them (I assume from the writing diagram it would only be single cable going into each of if it was just a single external bell-box?)

Further update on this - I've programmed all the parts I did previously (date, time, engineer and user codes, timeout value for setting the alarm until active, reconfigured a zone to be an entry/exit). I've also performed a walk test and checked all zones are working except for one of rear...

Hi Sparky, I've had some good success using your instructions. I've managed to successfully switch over the PCBs and all connections. Running off the battery alone now works - success! I carefully reconnected all the connectors before restoring the AC power - the flashing power LED...

Forgot to also add, if I remove the cable from the Strobe (labelled 'Strb'), it also has no effect on both bell-boxes - the lights still continue to show. I haven't yet got hold a multimeter but I'm going to order one tonight.

So an update on this is that the new PCB has now arrived and I have successfully placed the system into the Engineer Hold-Off mode. This worked for the internal sounder, however, the lights still show on the bell boxes and powering off the system still sounds the external siren. My current...

Excellent - many thanks for the confirmation again; hugely appreciated. I think I'm all set - I'll get the parts I need and report back with the results.

Thanks again for the tip secureiam - the one I'm buying that is new / unused condition and I know the default engineer code but yup I appreciate that's a deal breaker if it's locked! One final question; when power down the current panel, the external siren sounds. Is there a way to prevent...

Thanks very much for your reply too Sparky. That scenario isn't beyond the realm of possibly - the panel is a Texecom D5010-02.05, copyright 2002 and says PCB345 in the upper right hand corner (the PCB is a brown / green colour). I have tried looking for a replacement but it seems that...

Thanks very much for your reply - it is greatly appreciated. So I have already attempted to replace the battery as well as the battery fuse but these resolved the lack of power on battery only unfortunately. Good idea on disconnect the stone at the panel - I'll try that tonight. I'll...

Hi all, I'm experiencing an odd issue with our Veritas 8 Alarm system. Recently we had a brief power cut (no more than a minute) and the power came back on and the alarm wasn't sounding - thought no more of it. However, outside the blue strobe on the bell boxes is flashing along with...
