Then you've got a faulty bell or cable or you've wired it up wrong.

nah they work if he does a bell test, you checked no bell delay proggramed in? are you setting it then triggering it or timing it back in first?

wayne,

when you say you 'set' the system are you allowing it to fully arm? i.e. enter code/offer fob, exit bleep runs and times out fully. if not you will not get an external alarm signal.

so set your system and wait for the exit bleep to expire and silence, then activate any 12 hour zone or tamper. if that don't work check you have not set any bell delays or perhaps the external siren to be 'silent in part set'.

i don't know the panel used, but the above are common generic mistakes that are often made by engineers and end users alike. the idea is not to disturb the neighbours because you were distracted when setting the alarm, or just plain stony drunk .
