mikepatty77 Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I wonder if someone can help me please, I have moved into a propery and was left instructions to use the alarm and the omit functions for use at night. The problem is that when using both functions, the alarm, when set continues to beep and doesn't switch itself off. I have placed my hand in front of the sensors and they are working when the alarm is set, but I am wondering is there anything that I can do make sure that the alarm times out and I am able to use this. Many Thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many Thanks Mike Hi Mike and welcome to the forum , with you saying youve jsut moved into the property have you thought about getting the system checked out profesionaly and also changing the code number - it may still be posible to charge the vendors if there is a fault found angus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FASTCAR Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Hi , when it is beeping , is it showing one of the zones open , like zone 1 , if so it will not set.Is it possible you still have a protected door / window open?, maybe a damaged contact.
