barneysmum Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Hi, Have just moved into house and the alarm has started beeping at random. There is a small booklet for a Gardtec 360/580 which isn't much help. I have turned Chime "off" and turned off the fuse in the garage but it still randomly beeps. It's driving me nuts! I have turned the fuse back on now as it made no difference. Is it possible to turn chime off for individual zones as there seem to be 3 zones but I can't see how to set chime for them one by one. How can I either fix it or turn the whole thing off so the kids and I can get some sleep tonight? Any advice would be appreciated - thank you! P.S. Have checked log - nothing there and have set and unset alarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Is it deffo the alarm? - Its not possibly a smoke detector somewhere with a low battery is it?? Just check that possibility out. Dave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggy Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 I also think this is a smoke detector battery problem. The only other thing I think it could be is a line fault. If it's a single high-pitched beep every five minutes or so, it's probably a smoke. Alarm tones would probably be two notes or more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barneysmum Posted March 14, 2007 Author Share Posted March 14, 2007 I was just logging back on to say ignore me ....it was the smoke alarm! - no idea why I didn't even think about that! If I'd done a bit more digging on this site I'd have found the answer before I posted - nice one with the quick replies though - excellent!
