Accenta8 Mini Tamper Circuit Problems

[Guest twoshovels]

Hello

I have an Accenta8 mini that was installed about 6 years ago and I recently started suffereing tamper alerts for no apparent reason. They were coming in once or twice a week.

I started off checking the tamper switches on the various devices and ended up jumping the tamper circuits for keypads and external bell on the controller card. As far as I can tell, the only tamper circuit still intact is the switch on the control unit door.

I also replaced the battery at the same time.

It was fine for 2 weeks, but I had 2 alerts yesterday.

Please, can anyone offer some advice as to anything else I can check? The only other option is to replace the controller (or board).

Thanks

Ken

Most likely induced ac, an accenta will fall over if you sneeze on it.

If it was up to me I'd rip it out , fit something decent and have it properly maintained.

If it is induced AC you can check for it quite easily with a multimeter and then fit an appropriate filter. Remember to work safely - there are mains voltages inside the panel and you need it on to test :!:

If in doubt get a qualified person to do it.

Have a look on ACT Meters web site http://www.batterytester.co.uk
