My Veritas 8 alarm activated at 4.am a couple of days ago after working faultlessly for 4 years. The tamper light was flashing.
I managed to stop it by entering my code but it continued to go off every 15 minutes until the battery was flat. Didn't have a clue what to do, and my neighbour has a 2 week old baby, good timing. Fortunately it was only the inside alarm.
When I had stopped panicking I noticed the engineer had wired the alarm into the same switch on the RCD as the outside light, it had tripped and I remembered the outside light bulb had gone at 6.00 pm the night before.
Fixed the light and switched the alarm on (36 hours later) but only managed to set it and stop the unset light and the light on the main box from flashing by using omit and 0 in the user manual. The outside strobe light isn't working, I can set the alarm and activate exit and enter bleeps.
Complete novice what is my next step, any help gratefully received.
