Hi all,
I have an old Galaxy 16 Plus, no longer monitored by ADP, but connected to a working phone line. Each time the alarm is triggered, I used to get hit with call charges, amounting to a few £ per month, so i decided to try to disable the comms.
Following advice from an old thread, I deleted the account number and the telephone numbers prevously used by ADP. (Menu 12, 1 and 12,2 and 3)
I also disabled the line volts detection (13,2,1).
Since then I have been getting an internal alarm sounding every two hours or so, with the panel showing COMMS FAIL. I have since re-abled the line volts detection, but the Comms fail persits.
I am thinking that the issue I have created for myself is that the panel is trying to confirm an active phone line is connected, but due to my having deleted the dial out numbers, is unable to do so.
Can anybody suggest what I should do in this situation (i.e. the alarm panel is connected to a working phone line which I do not want to use this)? I am wondering if there is a way to set a parameter to stop the line test, but cannot find a way to do this. I could disconnect the phone line terminals, but am not sure whether this would cure the issue, and also am not sure where these are located on the panel..
Would be glad if anybody is able to assist..?
