[how to remove tamper light on gardtec 300]

Check all your devices , they should all have tamper protection , make sure the covers are on straight , he may have knocked a pir or keypad. Your system won't arm with a tamper fault.

[Veritas 8 alarm sets with user code but only unsets with engineer code or reset]

If it stops beeping when you press RESET , then it hasn't set , are there any leds lit?. Either way it has defaulted and requires reprogamming to suit your requirements.

 

[Concept 6 - RKP replacement?]

Hi Logan , here is a pic of the ADE Concept RKP , lots of connections , the Concept 6 RKP is connected by a 4 core to the cpu , but best bet is to replace with a ADE G4 or similar.

For completeness..

Security Lighting 6 panel is identical to Optima Compact , just a premium rate technical helpline on the back , just a rebrand.

[Accenta 6 Volume Control Help]

You could try removing the connection to the speaker , and just use the keypad tones...but you will loose high volume alerts and alarms.

[Tunstall TS600]

Hi , I have added it to the downloads area , under the Menvier folder , it is pending approval.

[Challenger 5]

I think its a stripped back version of the C+K Active 5 , sold through Wickes in the 1990's.

Looks like a rebadged FVE Commander...Forward View Electronics. Not worth keeping.

Your system needs to be defaulted to give you access to a user code , this will give you control over the system.It may be best to use the services of a local installer , ask for a default and service.

Hi ,

if the property is rented , get the landlord to sort it , asap.

Is it making full alarm (external siren) , or is it just the chime feature (beeps from the internal speaker) , use the manual posted above to turn the chimes off.

[Comtex Vectra 6+3]

Its a pyronix , the paragon plus manuals will do the trick.

[Optima XL6 manual needed]

the XL is just an XM , with backlighting.

[Optima XL6 manual needed]

Zone 3 could be illuminated because a PIR ( movement detector ) is active , or faulty.Have a read of the manual to make sure you are setting it correctly.

Next step should be to call in an engineer , ask around family and neighbours for a recommendation , and have the battery checked out too.

Regards.

[Optima XL6 manual needed]

Hi ,

What is showing on the display when you set the alarm ?.If zone 1 is illuminated , then its most probable that the front door is open , or the detection device is faulty.Try looking for a surface mounted contact with a small wire going to it , or a flush mounted contact sunk into the frame.These come as a pair (switch on the frame , magnet on the door).

Its possible that the front door has been replaced , and the magnet is missing.

Regards.

Hi ,

[Which Alarm?]

Have a look at the spec.

gardtec

[Which Alarm?]

eurosec CPX has a dialer...

[Optima XL6 manual needed]

Hi ,

Using the user manual posted a bit further up the thread , do a walk test , make a list of the zones 1 to 6 , then trigger each detector to see which zone is indicated on the panel ,

eg

zone 1 = front door

zone 2 = hall

etc , etc.

to full set the system , just enter the code, and leave the building.Depending on the layout , she may have to omit a zone at bedtime

eg.

C O D E , omit , zone number , set.

Regards,

[security master tp-800 pre wired alarm problems!]

when i try to arm the system no beeping is heard to warn of the setting

sounds like its not arming , are you using correct code / arming sequence?.

[Veritas Premier 24 - Any Comments?]

Rip it out, dump it and replace it with a nice diy job from Wickes or B&Q.

I'm sure that'll be just as unreliable as the dreadfull texecom rubbish you already have.

most other manufacturers are ok, but texecom suck like a big sucky thing on a big sucky day

Just a bit unfair

I have fitted a couple of hundred also , and every single one is still in operation , the oldest one being nearly 10 years old.As with most kit , install it well , service it ,and it will last.
