Rulland Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 As swb, menu 00, option 3, the old Veritas only have two miscellaneous options instead of the newer three, and these didn't include single button setting. You require the engineer code to adjust the setting for either on or off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james.wilson Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I do have a question or 2 though? you replaced the smoothing cap or others? why? how old is it?

Keighley Posted November 20, 2016 Author Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) I have the engineers code I just want the engineers codes to reset it to disable the one key arm mode The main capacitor had blown the large one near the transformer I am not sure how old it is as it was in when I purchased the property I think it is from 2001?

Rulland Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) Enter the engineering menu using the engineer code, that you, apparently have, go to miscellaneous options 00, 3, and change it to not single button setting, simples. Be aware that all versions of Veritas have the option of locking the engineer code, if that option has been enabled by the original installer there is no easy way to reset the code to factory default.

Keighley Posted November 20, 2016 Author Share Posted November 20, 2016 thank you ill try that in the morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keighley Posted November 21, 2016 Author Share Posted November 21, 2016 programed it last night all went well, armed ok through the night but when I disarmed it this morning the mains went in the box and it started running on battery (all fuses are ok,) as we are away quite a bit I don't want to risk it going off so I am going to bite the bullet and buy a complete control box they are only £45 inc post and you get a key pad Does any body know if the transformer is included with the kit, I am nearly sure it is but not 100% sure?. it will drive me made and I wont be able to sleep if I don't find out what has gone wrong so I am going to find out before I fit the new panel so there is one question I would like to ask, what is the OUTPUT voltage of the transformer? at the present 240v in 20.5v out and any other comments on fault finding this fault will be welcome thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datadiffusion Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 If you are upgrading there are a million (ok, 5/6) better options that what you already have, for the same or less money. Like ones with an actual English LCD keypad for one...

sixwheeledbeast Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Veritas is fairly solid for the money. It's basic but meh it's bells only. 19 Vac out is normal for alarms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datadiffusion Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Agreed its actually OK, but I would never fit it new, given the choices out there - would you?

Keighley Posted November 21, 2016 Author Share Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) What are they? I don't know what you mean (English key pads) the one I have now only shows red light when programing? as I am only a DIYer I thought it would be best to one out one same back in as all the connection will be the same but if you have better idea please tell me looks like the transformer is ok then.? as I don't know about alarms, I have had two Veritas systems in properties I have owned that is why I can usually get by if anything goes wrong Edited November 21, 2016 by Keighley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
