Need help with house alarm!! PLS!!

[saphcosme]

Last night our street suffered yet another power cut and as a result our alarm sound continuosly until the power was restored some one and a half hours later.

Now, the alarm is an 'Ultima' of some sort and I just wan't to disconnect it as it's never used and really does not suit our needs.

I have read on various other threads to take the panel cover off take a fuse out and take battery out.

All well and good but I am worried that there is a battery in the external bell box and it will sound and not stop.

Is there a way of finding out as I do not have access to any ladders??

The bell box is one of those reall big ones with a strobe on the top (if that helps)

Anyone on here want an easy job in Tyne and Wear?

Please help!! thank you!!

Just try to disconect the mains and battery, if the sounder does ring then you can either wait for it to stop could be up to a couple of hours if no timer pcb is fitted or just reapply the mains and battery. You will prob find if you open up the control unit disconect the battery and mains then reapply the mains only the system may boot back up and you will have use of the system again.

Hope this helps

Here's a wild idea that will probably solve your problem AND enable you to use the system in future:

CHANGE THE FERKIN BATTERY!
