Al Brown Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Hi forum. I have a risc agility alarm. Took the movement sensors down to paint and have reinstalled. They work but are very insensitive you need to get right up to them to set them off. Any ideas?

MrHappy Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 assuming you have not refitted them in funny way- they sleep after movement if old the lens might be going battery's on the way out....

Thanks Mr Happy that’s helped. I’ve realised it’s something to do with the fitting. When I take them down and prop them up on a shelf they work perfectly fixed with the supplies fixing they work but are insensitive. The fixing is part of the back that keeps the tamper switch down. Suspect the back is not fitting snugly when on the wall. Any ideas?
