    I was warned as a new member that to maintain my membership I would have to post at least one message within in three months. I have since posted two or three messages, but the second thread that I contributed to has been terminated, perhaps because of my thoughtless and naive messages and the member responses that it engendered. So, chaps, for me, ze war is over.

    I resited a PIR. I ensured I rewired the cables as per the original site, however none of my PIRs anywhere in the house now work. They used to flash on and off when detecting motion. They no longer do this, even the 2 PIRs I have not touched! THere is no light at all in the PIRs. The tamper circuit works fine. (As soon as a I take the PIR front off, the alarm sounds.) I made sure I did not connect the 12v +/- cables. Any clues?

    I would be greatful for any help you can give to rectify my alarm system. I believe it is a 580, although not sure. I had the system installed a while ago and the installation engineer no longer carries out this type of work. When the system first went on the blink the LED display was flashing AC 15-44. Now it shows En all the time in the unset mode. When I try to set the alarm the exit sounder sounds, but the system will not set and the LED shows EN again. If I go into the event log, the only thing that shows in the log is rE. According to the manual this means........... Electronic watchdog reset (engineer message) I have tried to obtain an Anti-Code or Engineer…

    Help!! alarm keeps going off when not set. Problems begin with one external ring followed by the internal box omitting a loud buzz. 24 hours red light lit. The external alarm then sounds again and can only be turned off by setting the alarm and then unsetting! Had a new battery fitted in April when this problems started. Any ideas?

    Hi Can anybody help, I inadvertantly pushed my panic alarm of the optima puls 2 and set it off. I have managed to switch the alarm off but can't reset the system. Do you know if it is possible to buy a key for the panic alarm to reset it? Also can anyone suggest an engineer who would be able to service the alarm? We are in Dartford Kent. Thanks Fiona

    Bought a Scantronic 9448 yesterday for a customer. Fitted it all well no problems. Got a call today to say not working, went out to look and the keypad on the panel is lit but the column of leds is not, bell outside alternating, but nothing from panel, open door and no lights or sounds to say tamper, pir's still flashing, so power is to the aux side. All fuses ok, Am a spark by trade so do not know if it is a stock fault etc, easy to fix or wuld it be easier to get replacement board. Has anyone come accross this and if so what causes/caused it

I have red, blue, yellow and back coloured wires. I am confuesed. Can anybody help.
