morph Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 Page 28 - Faults: "c. If a tamper, PA or 24Hr fire fault is present on the system, it will go to a lock out condition (showing the appropriate indication). The keypad will not produce any audible responses and the system will not operate until the fault has been found and rectified. d. The most common cause of a zone not responding to detection is incorrect wiring. Normally closed detectors must be wired together in a series loop before connecting into the appropriate ZONE terminals. Tampers are series wired in the same manner. e. Where a permanent zone fault is showing and the loop resistance is found to be in order, the most probable cause is a short circuit between the zone wiring and the tamper wiring. When measured with a multimeter the series resistance between the zone and tamper wiring should be infinitely high. f. If totally lost as to the cause of a fault, remove ALL wiring from the Board. Refit the 4-links and test the system. Never fit links to any positions other than those marked on the Board. g. Before testing or replacing any fuses, ALL power must be removed. Fuses which fail continually are almost certainly the result of a short circuit or low resistance across the 13V supply or external siren (bell box) supply (terminal D). Whenever working close to the mains supply or connector, you should exercise extreme caution. Always isolate the mains supply before removing the control panel covers. Where normally open and closed detectors are being used these must be wired to a zone in the manner shown." Also check that you have the service timer switched off.

Guest Guest Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 If the system is functioning correctly other than the fact that this tamper light is on, then the fault is with the service timer go into the options and switch off or change the indication settings(how many sets/unsets till it shows up) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
