cypermethrin Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 OK long story - basically having successfully fitted a replacement PIR on my Eurosec CP8L. Fire it all up and get Low Batt and Bell Tmp alerts . . . . . and non of the PIRs are active - they have the tamper voltages but only read 0.25V brtween Ov and 12v terminals. The voltmeter reads the battery at 13.3v - which has left me wandering why its tripping - I know why the bell tamper is activated cause it came disoged when I removed the battery. So my question is can the be resolved by fitting a new battery - or will I need the Engineers Code to reset the system Any advice welcome - the orginal install company went out of business let year so I cannot get them to reset the system.

james.wilson Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 the fuse may be blown at the edge etc. But check with a meter. Also remove your 12v connections form the panel and see if your 12v comes back. If so your battery is low and cannot blow the fuse. A lot of cheaper panels dont have psu's powerful enough to blow a fuse without power from the battery. securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

cypermethrin Posted December 6, 2008 Author Share Posted December 6, 2008 Well obviously you guys were right ! The 1A fuse on the board was out - replaced and everything is now as it should be. Many thanks. Just as a matter of interest as the orginal install company is no longer trading - how can I get hold of my Engineer Code ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You`ll need to reboot it and/ or have it unlocked by the manf too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hd5578 Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Hi. Please can someone help me. I have the exact same problem and my 1A fuse had blow too. I replaced it but it just keeps on blowing the fuse!! Does anyone know why it does this and why it still says low batt. The battery is fine and so is the voltage to it etc. Any answers? Thanks Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
