Hi,

I've had some electrical work carried out during which the fuse for the electrics was pulled.

When the electric was put back on, I noticed that the "Unset" light on the alarm control is flashing (it's usually constantly on).

I moved into the property 6 months ago with the alarm already installed, so I dont know any information regarding it's servicing history etc.

I have downloaded the user guide but can't solve the problem.

Any ideas?

Have you pressed the button marked RESET?

Yep I've tried that as that usually works when it's been activated. However, it doesn't do anything now.

I have "set the system with a power fault" as in the manual and it seems to set ok. I can unset it afterwards, but the "unset" lights begins to flash again.

sounds like a blown fuse. change the fuse in the spur next to the main control unit

Yep, a flashing green led is mains off.

Blown fues in panel, the panels FCU, or your friendly spark has managed to accidently isolate the supply.

Ac quickly...the panel battery an only last so long....before the SAB activates and deafens you and your neighbours for 20 odd minutes

Restoring the ac should not pop any fuses, mains fail is also quirky on the veritas as it will indicate a duff battery eg. Drawing too much mA, but the panel will not know when battery fuse or the battery it self are missing

Thanks for your help guys.

I was awoken at 3am last night but a loud buzzing noise coming from the panel box. Luckily a friend of a friend who is an alarm engineer came this morning to put it right.

The battery was duff which meant it tried to draw too much power and blew the fuse. When the battery finally died (at 3am) it all finally packed up, made a racket for 20 mins and died.

I now have a new battery, new fuse and a fully working alarm system.
