Johnc Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 I have checked the wiring and it's ok. If I remove the unit from the wall and take it next to door magnet it does not read it. It is as if the board no longer recognises a magnet. And the scantronic indicates tamper all the time for that zone My other contacts which are equal all work fine Thank you Any advices on a good company and alarm make in west Sussex I dont want to pay silly money with over inflated prices and sales pitches Many thanks for all your replies so far Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/43733-scantronic-4600-door-contacts-not-functioning/page/2/#findComment-499409 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnc Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 Meant to add even with the dip switch off for the battery, ie battery turned of on the board the alarm still indicates tamper if you try to do a walk test Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/43733-scantronic-4600-door-contacts-not-functioning/page/2/#findComment-499410 Share on other sites More sharing options...
james.wilson Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 It will till it sends a tamper restore. I'd try linking everything out.

Johnc Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 It has a metal clip on the front and a little button on the back which I assume is the tamper. I have placed unit back it its housing so that tamper switches will be pressed in but makes no difference. Sorry what do you mean by "linking everything out"? Mr Wilson if you could explain a little it more I could try your suggestion.

Not that we will be available for any installation works for some time as our books were full before lockdown, and we have work coming in still everyday.

I assumed (maybe incorrectly) you had external devices connected to the contact transmitter. If so its those id link out with a bit of wire.
