ChrisLancs Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Got an ADE Optima Compact alarm with an Accenta+ panel. The power was switched off at the mains. When powered on again, the lights appear dim on both the panel and the box, but there is a persistent Pip or click. Not like your usual pip. Very much a clicking noise. Any ideas?

sixwheeledbeast Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Needs looking at, could be a number of things especially if it's not been serviced in a while. I would power it down for now if the external sounder doesn't ring out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have never used this kit before so we wanted to set it all up and test it, while we were at it we programmed the system the same as what it was going to be when installed. It saves the engineers getting flustered on site, all they have to do is install the kit and the sw, run a backup and the system will work. The customer can pre issue the fobs safe in the knowledge that they are programmed and tested. Staff will get in all doors tenants only the ones they're allowed to get in. The readers and fobs are secure format so I also wanted to be sure that they were all programmed correctly too. I am fairly happy that the kit is reliable as I have been reliably informed that from trusted sources that it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
