Optima 2 PLus stuck in Tamper mode

[NS21]

Hi,

The alarm is stuck in TAMPER mode with zone number flashing, this is following a door and its frame with sensor being replaced. The zone was in "Omit Prevent"

I am not able to do anything from the panel to RESET and remove the zone from Omit prevent.

Any suggestions how I get out of the TAMPER mode which allows me to do nothing at all.

Possible damaged cable /cable trapped when 're coiffed contact.
Post photo of contact which was removed and replaced.

Actually the contact was removed with the old door frame. Until I get a new one installed, is there a way to get out of the TAMPER mode?

if you have access the cable, join the tamper wires together, if you open the panel you will need to link out the global tamper circuit.

Zone 2 tamper if it's an optima 2

sorry you can still link the cables together but this panel does have double pole wiring, so wouldn't be a global tamper, each zone has its own tamper circuit.

so zone 1 tamper lights up its the tamper for zone 1, if you have removed the device, you need to link out panel terminals or join the cables together at what would be the device end.

Can someone please explain exactly how to "Link out" a panel terminal? Many thanks in advance.

Insert piece of wire between the 2 terminals

I'm having this exact problem. I accidentally hit the switch under the key-pad and sounded the alarm. My code and "Reset" stopped the noise but I'm left with the dreaded flashing "A". A lot of people here refer to the, "Link Out" solution but with no explanation as to how that's done. Thanks again.

Thank you. Is this done on the keypad or the main console?
