Hello Everyone,

After a very long renovation and subsequent complete rewiring of the alarm system, I have returned to activating the lightsys alarm.

Unfortunately, however, some door opening detection sensors, connected via radio, continuously give the tamper alarm.

In particular, 3 sensors out of 9 have this problem.

What could have happened?

I have already changed all the battery.

 

Thanks for your availability.

Best regards
Simone

Hey @monena,

It sounds like you're dealing with persistent tamper alerts on your wireless door/window sensors after your renovation. Even though you've replaced the batteries, there are a few other factors that might be causing this issue:

  • Tamper Switch Alignment: Ensure that the tamper switches on the sensors are properly engaged. If the sensor covers aren't seated correctly, the system might interpret this as a tamper condition.

  • Physical Mounting: Check that the sensors are securely mounted. Loose fittings or misaligned magnets can trigger false tamper alerts!!

  • Environmental Factors: Since you've had a renovation, it's possible that environmental changes (like new materials or layouts) are affecting the sensors' performance. For instance, certain materials can interfere with wireless signals, leading to communication issues that the system might interpret as tampering.

  • Sensor Quality: Sometimes, the quality of the sensors themselves can be a factor. If the sensors are older or of lower quality, they might be more prone to false tamper alerts.

If you've checked all these and the issue persists, it might be worth consulting with a professional to inspect the system. They can provide a more in-depth analysis and suggest potential replacements if necessary.

Hope this helps!
