Scantronic 9448+ problem - can't set

Help!

During a bout of decorating I had to power off the downstairs sockets and lights to replace them. It was during this period that the alarm went off (not the alarm box on the outside of the house, just the internal box). The code it was set it to did not reset it. It then started making some strange and wonderful noises (which the missus thought were highly amusing  ).

I put the power back on to the sockets and switches and, in desperation, put in the default 1234 code, and it stopped! I then reset it back to the code we use normally.

Now, however, it won't set! When I key the code in light 3 comes on, then goes off to be replaced by light 6, then back to 3.

The vague to the point of useless manual indicates zone 6 may be a panic button, which we don't have. 

My hunch is the system has fully reset and needs configuring again (which is a bit poor imo, what if we had a genuine power cut??). Or perhaps it just things we have a panic button attached which needs reseting but we can't as we don't have one??

Any help greatly appreciated as I'm totally at a loss! 

Dan.

It does sound as though your panel has reverted to factory settings when the power was off.

This will be due to faulty or disconnected backup battery.

I would recommend you get an engineer to reprogram it and check it all out for you, as programming information is not given out on the public forums.

Click on the 'installers' link at the top of the page to find someone near you.

If you don't know......ask.
