Hi I installed an SL Compact Alarm a few years ago (with a little help). It's been switched of for ages though (since getting a cat as I've lost teh manual and forgot to to omit zones.

Anyhow killed power to the alarm today as had to get into a sensor to re-attach it to the wall - power came back on - alarm went off - cleared it with the code - problem is now the tamper light is on along with the power light - but nothing else seems to work - any ideas how to clear the tamper/where i could get a copy of the instruction sheet.

Thanks

Hi , the SL is basically the same as the Optima XM, and the user manual is knocking about this site somewhere.You have a tamper fault which would most likely be on the last thing you touched , ie. the sensor.Make sure the lid is on properly , and that the control panel lid is closed.

Have you had the battery and charging circuits checked recently?.

Regards.

Thanks, I'll have another look at the sensor.

If the keypad is dead, then its deinately a tamper, check the spring under the cover if you have removed it, Cant remember if the SL had an NVM.. saying that ive seem XL6s and above loose there memory many a time...
