needhelp Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Recently my alarm has been sounding in the middle of the night with the Error 6F. I clear this but it continues to go off every 30 mins for about 4 hours which is becoming very frustrating. Can anybody give me advice on how to stop this? Is the code 6F or is it really BF for the Battery? Any help would be much appreciated asap!

Battery fault - the system is detecting the back up battery has had it`s day ( you should be able to work out what you need to do to stop the system detecting the battery) Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/21724-scantronic-9800-error-6f/#findComment-186844 Share on other sites More sharing options...

needhelp Posted December 23, 2007 Author Share Posted December 23, 2007 Many thanks for your help. If we set the alarm overnight will that prevent it from going off due to not using the back up battery? Also, we have a spare battery but just wondered if you could advise whether the settings are lost when you change a battery over?

breff Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Change the battery ASAP, or you'll regret it when it starts going off at 3am and repeats it every 5 minutes. The opinions I express are mine and are usually correct! (Except when I'm wrong)(which I'm not) Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/21724-scantronic-9800-error-6f/#findComment-186849 Share on other sites More sharing options...
