alarm

Our Premia 9 burglar alarm is around 20 years old. We’ve just been woken up by the control panel beeping loudly and displaying battery fault error code- BF. Managed to silence it by pressing reset repeatedly but worried this will happen again overnight. Does anyone have the alarm user manual? Or...

Hi all, First post! Firstly thanks for all the advice people have previously posted on here, it has been incredibly helpful in the past! I have just installed my first Texecom Elite 24. All appears to be working fine, however I am having an issue when installing internal extension speakers! I...

Guys its 02:20am , I've got a six month old going mental and a angry wife (great start right...) Our Wireless Alarm (Pryonix Enforcer) is going off owing to a "tamper fault" I am fairly sure its on the box outside (20ft in the air). I have googled and inputted the master and engineering code...

I have recently moved into a property with a scantronic 9427 alarm. My flatmates and I have no clue how to use it and most manuals I've found online are installation manuals or have else been deleted. Our property management/landlord hasn't provided any help on the subject even though we’ve...

I have an issue with a tamper alarm on my wireless external sounder. Yesterday in the middle of the day the alarm went off on the keypad whilst alarm not set. After silencing it it told me I had a tamper alarm on the external sounder. After resetting it happened again at about 9pm. I checked...

Hi, I just installed a new light switch in my downstairs bathroom which is near the house alarm. It is a 2 gang 2 way switch with the other switch directly beside the alarm. The new switch controls the bathroom light and extractor fan, and there is a lot of "buzzing" in the bathroom when the...

Hi About to move to a new property. Looking for a DIY system including cameras , sensors and ideally Google home integration. Sensors need to be pet friendly. Ideally predominantly wireless though will wire some elements of needed Recommendations appreciated.

Hi, We've had a pyronix enforcer alarm for around 3 and a half years. Not sure on model. Last month it came up with wireless batt fault so i replaced them all with cr123a and the problem went away. This morning we were woken by the same fault. Other than the obvious - one of the new...

Hi all, I have recently fitted a honeywell G4 system and it keeps tripping reporting zone 4 and sometimes zone 4 and 5. BUT both these zones are terminated with no sensors. The alarm sets fine but then sounds an hour later for no apparent reason. Could the panel be faulty fresh out of the...

I am having a problem with my mother’s alarm system (Pyronix Enforcer). Before going any further I need to clarify that this is an exceptional situation due to the Coronavirus lockdown, that I would, under normal circumstances, get sorted out in a heart beat by simply calling an engineer in...

Hi I recently replaced 4 PIRs on my system for Pet Friendly ones. I put the system in to Engineer mode to prevent any tamper alarms. When I removed the first PIR (Zone 4), I accidentally touched some of the wires together which triggered the alarm. I stopped the alarm by entering User Code...

Hi, My Smoke Alarm is making a chirping/beeping sound indicating low battery. I haven't changed this for 4/5 years but do recall it being a total pita. :D The battery drawer is stuck so I cannot change the battery. I don't recall whether I had to stick something into the keyslot (e.g...

Hi, We have a Pyronix wireless system installed just over 4 years ago and have had Wireless Low Battery Siren messages and alerts for a few days. We have dummy alarm boxes externally, but as far sias know only the internal panel siren. Once I opened the panel up I could check the internal...

Hello alarm gurus, I have never installed an alarm system before but I am looking forward to giving it a shot. I have put quite a lot of thought into how we would like the system to work and I believe I have chosen a system that is capable of meeting these requirements but I would like to get...

I have just moved into a house with the above alarm. Following a power cut the keypads are emitting a constant tone, which I cannot stop. I have replaced the backup battery but still cannot stop the noise. The code will not work and I do not know what to do next, can anyone help?

Hi, I'm adding some additional sensors to my alarm system. As expected, when I remove mains from the panel then disconnect the battery, the bell rings. I can disable the bell from ringing by setting an internal jumper on the bell temporarily, but, this involves going up a ladder and the...

The other day for the first time in 4 years, my Pyronix Enforcer Home Control+ panel started beeping and went into a fault condition for the first time under a normal idle state. The error what I believe caused the "fault condition" was a "SMS call Fail" event, although not sure why it...

Have a scantronic panel (white panel with 2 screws at the top) with a keypad (929) photo attached. I need to know how to reset it as I cant remember the passcode to do anything with it. Tried earlier and the alarm went off so had to disconnect the sounder. Anyone able to help ?

Hi, The issue is solved but I'm curious as to if anyone knows what the issue was, or how to fix it in future. Veritas 8C, installed by yours truly 2 years ago. I had to power off the garage for a couple of days (the alarm is solely in the garage, monitoring the garage). When I turned the...
