Ive already suggested it!!

Whats the current draw in alarm, had a faulty extension speaker once causing a TS900 to do this, put the meter on and the current reading was nearly 1a.

Another favorite with menvier locking up is if the extension speaker cable is wired in the same cable as the keypad data, a big NO NO menvier say as it corrupts the data to the RKP.

I wouldnt change from a menvier to a texecom.

But why would it do it only after a fire activation and be ok after an intruder?

Bells are pulsed on and off in a fire condition, slightley more current drawn plus if the keypad data and extension speaker are in the same cable more chances of data corruption.

Nearly, they are the new revisions of the 10 year old Menviers designed by Menvier staff. They just have a Texecom badge on them.

Dave, try a 48 rather than the 24, few more features and a bit more industrially built with more wiring space.

So do medusa's

we stick to fitting 48's even on small jobs where a 24 would do. It just doesnt have the features of the 48/88 etc.

That's my new philosophy. I've specced a few 24's recently and after having a quick look in the Texecom book I noticed the 24 wasn't just a small 48 as I assumed it was, it was a different panel on looks and features. Still, the customers get a free upgrade before I even start the job. Can't see them complaining.

Maybe locking because the zone's still in alarm when you try return to day mode? Seems a likely answer to me.

Although probably isnt the right answer.

I think hes open to any suggestions, so any help you can give is great
