9448 Alarm Panel problems

[sparkymarka]

No as before ...enter code ( reset ) so no lights are on the panel no noise ( normal day mode ) NOW walk in front of the detector you changed ( zone 3 ) what happens ?

Hi Sparkymarka, did as you requested, no change, no alarm lights came on and no panel noise.

Hi Sparkymarka, sorry forgot to mention, the LED light on the IR Sensor comes on when movement detected and then goes off when not be 'blocked'.

Regards.

Ok next step full set alarm with code ....what happens ?

 

[John Herbert]

Hi, when full alarm set, Tamper Light (only) comes on.

 

[sparkymarka]

Your going to have to start isolating tampers ...open panel and start with global A/T put a link in the terminals , now try to set the alarm

 

[John Herbert]

Hi, linked out A/T terminals, set alarm and Tamper Light still comes on (as before).

 

[sparkymarka]

Ok next step put a link between 0v and TR bottom of pcb , stretch spring ...if it's still showing ....time for a new panel

 

[John Herbert]

Have you tried what I said with the new battery? Power down then up and reset?

Hi Guys,
thanks for all the help (and patience). Good news, it turns out the problem was a high resistance contact on the panel's PCB mounted Anti-Tamper switch, I have temporarily shorted this out and the system now works as it should.

Regards.
