Optima Xm 6 Problem

I have an OPTIMA XM6 but there is a fault with the system.

The panel beeps, usually just a single beep. Over the last few days the beep is getting weaker.

I have changed the battery so its not likely to be that unless its dud too.

Any ideas?

well we will need a bit more info that that mate, what yopu got displayed ie what lights are on. Whats your charge voltage and day mode current

The POWER and the DAY lights are lit up.

Someone did suggest to me it maybe the SERVICE mode could be activated or it may just need powering down, so the panel can 'reset' itself, from the electrical side and disconnecting the battery and leaving it for a bit before powering back up again.

Im not being funny, are you certain its the panel, and not either a smoke detector with a low battery or a digital watch or something youve forgotten about near the panel.

As far as i am aware the XM6 didnt have a service reminder facility, and faults just show on the panel they dont bleep if I remember correctly.

Double check with the smoke detector thing etc etc

Is the beep random? are you sure its the panel not a battery or mains operated smoke detector?

What condition was the battery in when you removed it?

I have disconnected both battery operated smoke alarms near to the panel and the beep is still coming from the panel.

The beep is getting weaker and not as regular as it was when it first started.

DNS, where are you based in this fair city?
