Guest johnkay Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 I was fitting some laminate flooring and I think I nicked the cable in the landing, because when i went to set the alarm on at night all the zone leds(4) lit up and the alarm would not arm up. I opened the control panel found 800mA fuse blown (the right outer one out of the 3) I replaced it but now I get the 24 hr led flashing & trying to reset wil not clear it. The remote keypad also has a flashing tamper led. I linked the tamper contacts on the control panel still no good. All pirs have leds which react to movement. If I take out battery & power down the mains & then put mains back on the fault clears & I am able to set the alarm. But I cannot power down when the battery is connected so I get the flashing 24hr led which will not reset . Any ideas what the fault could be??

Deltaseven Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Any ideas what the fault could be?? Might be set up for engineer reset. Have you repaired the damaged cable - if not, this is likely to give you continuing problems in the future.

kka Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 the wire that you cut, where does it go. Does it go to the rkp, or a pir, or the outside box? Kevin Scott. Owner of KK Alarms......

It goes to a pir, which does flash when there is movement in the room.

kka Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 i am assuming you have joined the wire back together properly. and the only other place you have being in, is the control box, it may well be your problem is with the tamper spring inside the control panel.

FASTCAR Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Hi , Check for a short between zone and tamper circuit. Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/10180-flashing-24-hr-led-texecom-veritas-8-compact/#findComment-95064 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest johnkay Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Hi , Check for a short between zone and tamper circuit. I have joined the damage cable back. But I did a resistance check on the tamper cct and it was 5 ohms which seemed to suggest that the tamper loop, which has 4 pirs in series to be ok. I did link the the tamper cct in the control panel to make sure and the fault was still the same, with the shorting link in the tamper terminals.
