scotslad469 Posted August 12, 2020 Author Share Posted August 12, 2020 Small bit further help. After getting the PIR sensor installed and working. I decided to do a walk test and see if everything was fine and which zones were which. I believe these are shock sensors ? well i gave them a little nudge to see which zone they were in and now they flash red constantly. Anyone any ideas how to get them to stop flashing ??? I have set the alarm and unset it ive been into engineer mode and done a reset still they flash ALL NIGHT LONG !! Any further help would be appreciated......

norman Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Is there a reset switch on the panel? they need the power dropping off to reset the led iirc. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

scotslad469 Posted August 12, 2020 Author Share Posted August 12, 2020 I can remove the battery backup and turn the power off to the panel. You think that would reset them ??

norman Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Personally I would only drop the power to the detectors. I'm not sure with these panels but there will most probably be an output that resets on arm/set or something similar (pulse output perhaps?) that you can programme to drop the power momentarily on setting. Worst case, you cold wire in a small unobtrusive switch to interrupt the 12v and mount it through the casing at the bottom or something. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

sixwheeledbeast Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Sometimes the comfort light can stop if they haven't been triggered in a while, pretty normal for Vipers.

Dude question Does the alarm set and unset If you tap the windows does it set the alarm off ? (Don't break glass) try screw driver tapping on frame then lightly on glass near them Just now, sixwheeledbeast said: Sometimes the comfort light can stop if they haven't been triggered in a while, pretty normal for Vipers. You still fit many ? I hate them lol but then I am a house basher I guess....

sixwheeledbeast Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Nope, use the Texecom Impaq ones unless I have to use proper Vipers for replacement (aesthetics/latch line etc) Mostly wireless shocks now if customer needs perimeter.
