January 9, 200422 yr comment_5799 Hi, Just wondering if someone on here can help me before I go insane! I have a accenta 6 (about 5 years old), after having to turn off the mains and switch back on the system accepted my PIN and everything went back to normal.. Until I went to set the alarm and half way though setting the alarm sounds and the tamper light comes on, Entering Pin disables again I can press reset and goes back to normal - but if I press the PROG button the alarm automatically goes off again! I feel like I am going round in circles - I have read other people similar accounts, so I have made a link across the 2 terminals to clear the NVM and tried reset, but no avail Could this be as simple as the battery as discussed in other threads (altho if I disconnect the battery and the external siren this still happens!!!) Can anyone shine any light onto this....

January 10, 200422 yr comment_5840 Hello - thanks for your reply I will check out the tamper spring next - I do have a spare keypad which I can try also - the main problem seems to be that when the system is in day mode and all fine, I press PROG and the alarm goes off with a quick flash off all zones and the tamper light comes on, I only know a little bit about alarm but this is now drivin me crazy as what it could be, anyone else any ideas?

January 11, 200422 yr comment_5849 If you have had the system for five years and have never changed the panel battery, then this would be a good place to start. Especially if the fault only occured after you switched the power off. Colin.

January 11, 200422 yr comment_5860 Hi, I have now replaced the battery with a new one from Maplin, and also changed the remote keypad incase of the tamper on this - still no luck - one other thing I meant to mention was that if you go and set the alarm as normal it will set fine and then after a certain amount of time it automatically trips the tamper , I cant really afford to change the system, anyone?

January 17, 200422 yr comment_6083 Hi, I have removed the cables and reinstated the links - and it fired up fine (with tampers in place) singled the fault down to a loose cable going to the bell box - all sorted now, thanks for your help, great site Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/1077-accenta-6-tamper/#findComment-6083 Share on other sites Share on LinkedIn Share on X Share on Facebook {lang="reddit_text" Share via email Share on Pinterest More sharing options...
