Alarm - think Ive messed up!

[GazSuttonUK]

Ive been doing some decorating..Ive just pulled the bunch of wires from one of the sensors through its backplate without isolating the power supply to the alarm(240v)....Ive rewired the sensor and now I cant turn alarm system off
Ive checked all the fuses in alarm control box but still wont turn off.....
Any ideas please......

In the manual for the Accenta 8 it says the factory code is 0123....Ive tried that but still wont stop the alarm sounding...

Can you not copy the wiring from another sensor and replace the wires ensuring that the tamper device is correctly seated at the same time?

Is it soundings internally or externally ? As you may have blown the fuse inside the panel , it should have a separate for the detectors but it may have been wired to the aux supply because of the Aritech high power sounder ,you may need a 1.6 amp quick blow fuse

Its sounding internally....it had blown the fuse...I replaced it but still sounds and cant stop with keypad...

All sorted.....
And for anyone with the same problemtaken from another forum)
Reset is as follows..
Disconnect power - (battery and mains)
Remove all wires from terminals 17(PA) and 27(set+)
Fit a link wire between these two terminals and connect power.
System will power up with no alarm.
Remove link and refit wiring.
Keypad will show any open zones.
User Code is now 0123
Engineer Code 9999

You just need to reprogram the system now ! 😳

Reset? That was the factory default procedure, which probably wasn't necessary.

 

[GazSuttonUK]

Well what ever it was it worked...

 

[sparkymarka]

Hope you've tested all the zones since the reset !
