Adt Bell Box Flashing Leds?

Featured Replies

Hi All

A very quick question from a newbie.

When should the ADT bell box internal LEDs flash?

- All the time?

- Only at night?

- Only when armed?

- Only when the alarm has been triggered?

I want to ensure that mine is not appearing odd or out of place to a potential thief that knows ADT.

Many thanks in advance.

Hi there, the LED's will normally flash continuously-to show that it is indeed a 'live box'.

The strobe on the other hand only flashes during an 'alarm' condition normally.

Only the new box has LEDs.......old ones dont

What do you have???

I'm not exactly sure...

How can you tell an old ADT bell box from a New one?

Many thanks;

(And thanks to everyone for your quick answers!)

The LED's (two on most boxes) flash intermittantly-and are fairly low vis-sometimes hard to see in daytime.

The strobe is a much brighter visible sign even during the day-to show of an activation.

If you've just had it installed by the yellow box people then it will have the new LEDs, if you've had it a few years then it wont
