Guest anguscanplay Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Still putting my quid on ext sounder, but will bow to everyone else's expert knowledge of the 9448 bell tamper would trigger the outside sounder too - 3.00 am? classic battery time Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/23962-scantronic-9448-flase-alarms/page/2/#findComment-203836 Share on other sites More sharing options...
breff Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 One question. When it activates can you reset it straight away by entering your code again? If so I'd deffo say battery, if not then I would also go for bell (it may not ring Angus because its own battery is shagged) 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/23962-scantronic-9448-flase-alarms/page/2/#findComment-203849 Share on other sites More sharing options...

magpye Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Post #1 > .... experienced instances where the alarm activates without it even being set. Post #4 > .... It is only the internal alarms which sounds and the speech dialler doesn't dial out. When we turn off the alarm after it sounds the tamper light displays red until we reset it. Not set, so SD1 and external sounder will not operate (unless the external sounder is the problem) You will have to test all anti tamper returns at the control panel, one of them will point to the problem Someone told me I was ignorant and apathetic, I don't know what that means, nor do I care.

golf123 Posted July 5, 2008 Author Share Posted July 5, 2008 Yes I can - entering the code resets it stratight away. Thanks. One question.

lawandorder Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 OK, it's been advised several times thus far but have you replaced the battey yet ???C. Just my two penneth worth but I doubt that it is the battery. My money is on a tamper circuit or sas return but as always very difficult to diagnose remotely, especially with a 9448! It needs a man/woman with a meter to narrow it down properly.
