Ricochet Premiere elite 48 setup

[Angel_84]

Hi guys, I've just installed this alarm in my new house, the electricians did all the connections, but it keeps saying battery fault...what battery is it talking about?
I would really appreciate some help here.
Also not 100% sure the connections are right, I will upload a picture so you can see, there are 2 cables on the left black and red which has not been used yet...

Isn't there a back-up battery in there?

 

[Angel_84]

I can't see any honestly...I attach 2 photos

Electricians ....say no more I would check to make sure it works ! Lol
Yes it's missing the battery as reporting !

 

[sparkymarka]

And the commission link has been left on , have they finished ?

 

[Angel_84]

Well he was not supposed to install it, it just connected the electricity to it.
So what battery shall I put? And where? They don't explain anything about it on the manual...
What is the commission link? Sorry I'm very new to this

Think your going to struggle with this one !

 

[Angel_84]

I've got to agree haha
Any help at all?

I found the installation instructions online, I think they mention a 12v 7AH battery. It is probably a SLA. But you had better check. I have always been very pleased with Varta but I am not an alarm person. You may end up needing an extra connector.

I see a battery-shaped space bottom right of the case.

12v 2.8 / 3.2 ah ( yuasa / power sonic ) will be fine as I assume there are no wired devices or bell ?
Have you got the following , Laptop , copy of lastest ' wintex' and a USB com lead ?

It's all wireless, well I've got a laptop, there is a cd inside the package, and what is that usb cable? A special one? A battery like this? https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/111084042675

Yes and this....... Texecom-JAC-0001 Premier Elite USB-Com

 

[Angel_84]

So is it not possible to set it without laptop and cable? I thought it would have been way more ready to go
I just need to pair 3 wireless pir and a contact for the patio door, nothing complicated

 

[Angel_84]

I've ordered the battery. So when I'll receive it I just need to connect the black and red cables and then the error about the battery will disappear right?

I've been fitting the premier since version 1 non elite 2003 ? Ish and it's a pain to program without a laptop , it can be done but not easy !
