Guest Col Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 I hope someone can point me in the right direction on this. Veritas 8 blows the bell fuse (fs2) only when the back up battery is connected. If i remove the battery, or the battery fuse all works ok. I just wondered if i am over looking something simple, or a possible goosed panel. The battery will power the panel with no mains, i havent tried the bell on just the battery though. Very strange, any advice would be a great help.

Service Engineer Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 Sounds as though there may be a fault with the battery. Have you tried replacing it ? ........................................................

Guest Guest Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 Like i said before, the battery will power the panel and there is around 12v on it, could there still be a fault with it? According to the sticker it was replaced in 98. Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/245-veritas-8/#findComment-1080 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 Something else i forgot to add, it only blows the fuse when the alarm goes off. I thought at first it was a faulty bell, but it works fine when powered off the mains.

Guest Adrian Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 98 its 5 years old whatever you do bin it and get a new one. even if it shows 12v it can still be faulty. I think you need to do this then get back to us with the result.
