Can anyone tell me If there is a way of resetting my alarm. It was triggered by the livingroom PIR by the cat. The key pad has shut itself off and I cannot seem to enter any codes. Do I need enter the main panel? It is a fairly old system going back to at least 1995.
The photo you attach is the very alarm panel I have! I do have a single green light on yes, just indicating power to the panel, but the buttons are not beeping when I press them. The panel keeps sounding off whenever the entry door is opened. As I say any views on how to reet the alarm would be great. I have had no problems at all with the alarm since this false activation so I am reluctant to change it.
power it all down, wait 30secs then power it up MAINS only with the AUX and BELL disconected, if it doesn`t boot up you`ll need to do a complete power cycle involving the removal of the IC memory chip.
because the "out rush" of current being drawn by anything connected to the + - supply can cause the panel not to work, the transformer can not always cope, that is why you connect the battery first.
I will also admit that on some panels this does not work, because if the battey voltage fallls below 10v the panel cuts it off, so connecting a battery first does not work, but its only some, not all panels
