Fault on an aged Scantronic 9000 system
Its pile of old tat which wants ripping out & replacing The zones which don't work may not be in the area which is set IIRC the panels software scans the zones from high to low, under certain circumstances movement in an unset zone will trigger an alarm. They all do odd thing like the entry tone or alarm tone will continue when unset/ silenced, entering a walk test will stop it

First time install in self build house
no, its a common misconception that 1 controls panel is going power anything you can think of putting on it

First time install in self build house

Veritas 8 Compact
disconnect all the wiring inside the panel link from 0v to bell tamper inside the controls

Veritas 8 Compact

Relace adt panel and keyboard recommendations please
@Honda3 find a local tame alarm man, get them to price via email to replace the controls, battery & external bell. they'll measure all the cables & currents if they've 1/2 a brain... I'd assume your cables are stapled under the carpets ? Replace the fuse & tread on every inch of carpet where a cable might be lurking ?

Don't forget the Mitcheldean witch trials- Any strange bleep from a powered down alarm, needs the services of an exorcist.. I used to be medium, but as I got fatter my shirts are now all large.

Strange beeping !!!
Thank you taking the effort of joining our forum.... It assumes me & probably a few other members that you've powered down an intruder alarm as you've a battery powered smoke detector or similar with a low battery chirp :)

Smart security devices have risk from hacking
reading the article, The police later told the couple that four photos depicting category B child abuse - the second-most-serious kind - had been uploaded to an online chat site a year ago. Information passed to the National Crime Agency suggested it had come from their IP address. 1 year after the event the police turn up ? They appear to have an adsl router & I doubt they have a fixed IP Is it them, a nonce in the flat next door on their wifi or nonce with a fake IP... I reckon the later ?

Starting business
? the plastic cases, buttons ect will all be your design either moulded in house or produced by a subcontractor components, transformers, speaker ect RS Components ? (I expect texecom buy else where & much cheaper) Its very unlikely anyone is going to make a business from making a control panel, start with something much simpler speaker, joint box, door contact
