Okay will do, what does this do btw?

FRONT DOOR (ZONE 1) - Door magnet contact BATHROOM WINDOW (ZONE 3)- Shock/Glass break detector EXTENSION BUILDING DOOR (ZONE 2)-Shock detector (Replaced 2025) TEXECOM SOUNDER X1 EXTERNAL FRONT (Replaced 2025) COMPACT CONTROL Panel (Battery replaced 2025) Then there are still cables running to...

@sparkymarka No, the zones can not be on chime because we have no pir's so the only way chime would go off is if the front door is opened, which it is not. Do you know if there is any way to permanently omit a zone on the optima or can you only do it when setting the alarm

Ahh, do you think that is probably a cause of the beeping

Now then zone 6 and 5 and another zone had their contacts removed but are still wired into the pannel, could this be the beeping, as i have done a walk test for the first time since they where removed?

Images of fixed battery issue :Optima compact

Hi All I have fixed battery issue, fuse had gone, will replace every 5yrs now unless i convince all to get new system! Cheers

Hi Secureiam, thanks for getting back to me. I am to save up for a few years to replace the optima as, sensor cables for bedrooms where cut when the rooms where redone ect, and the pannel is in the way ect ect. I will use the fuse where the optima is but going to put the panel elsewhere. We...

Ahh, Ill check the keyboard tomorrow, if its burnt out what should i do, and if not? Battery fuse, shall i get 150 amp fuse

The image with 09 on is this year before we changed the battery the 2025 is the other week. No burn.

I will send some photos this evening, no burn marks the battery was in from pre 2009 but was changed this year in april. Considering the batt was not changed before this year, im hoping it will be the batt fuse otherwise it could be the charging resistor?

Good evening all. Please can you recommend a wireless cost effective alarm that is actually reliable. I will be changing to wireless in a few years and want to start learning about them. If you could recommend the type of texecome/pyrnonix on or brand ect. What do you think about Yale and...

Also when changing the battery fuse tomorrow, should i do it like this: 1- Mains off 2-Disconnect battery 3-Change fuse 4-Connect battery 5-Restore power from mains

I have realised that the reason i could not test in walk test was i was using engineering code, as my old manual said to do but i need to enter the user code, I will walk test tomorrow. The issue is the beep.

Hi All, I appriciate your time to read this. We have had an optima compact alarm for about 18 years, when the house was built. It was only serviced once after install, so yes the battery was not working etc. In about 2020/21 the transformer burnt out, we dont set it all the time so didnt...

Okay, thank you

Hi, Did you go for a wireless system, if so can you advice if they are any better?

Thank you for making me aware of this. I will be getting this fixed immediately! Thanks again

@freddiemercurystwin I was not there when the concealed door closers where removed. The reason they where removed was because of a loud banging, but towels where been put on doors stopping them being closed. The regulations no longer require these doors to have self closing devices on...
