HI Guys, I have a Eurosec CP8L alarm, installed by the builder. About 2 years I had to replace the main battery, but other that it was functioning fine. Recently I started getting tamper alarms at random times through the day, not too often yet, but few late at night - so this is annoying. It is very similar to False Tampers Eurosec Cp8l Lcd topic from years ago, but I do get a definite code for "KP Tamper" when it happens. I unscrewed keypad panel and the button on the back of the board seems to be functioning as intended with spring looking ok (and triggering legitimate KP Tamper when I take the panel off). Other than that the KP board looks fine (pics attached). I also looked at control panel board, but also didn't see anything obvious. I connected/disconnected KP tamper wires (left hand side - highlighted in red in pics - they seem to be doing their job triggering KP Tamper as expected). Anything else for me to check? Can I somehow isolate (bridge??) KP Tamper on the main board to see if this points to KP/wiring or something else (maybe on the main board??) Thanks a lot. p.s. I am not a professional security systems installer, but know my way around electrics, so can do basic testing if needed.

I've got an alarm on my house (installed by previous owners) that I've just ignored up until we got a power cut last night at 2am. You guessed it, as soon as the power went off the alarm started (and went on for over an hour until the power came back on, neighbours must love me...). The keypad was completely dead when the power was out. Anyway it's a eurosec CP8L and a Texcecom Odyssey 3E. I've spent the day researching how to stop it happening again and it seems likely I just need to replace the battery in the control panel. It was last replaced in 2009 according to the receipt from the previous owner. My question is, as I don't have the engineering code (at least I assume it was changed from default) what is going to happen when I remove the cover on the control panel, and what do I need to do then? I've read it's possible the installer configured it so the engineering code is needed to reset tampers, does that mean that the alarm will go on forever until someone enters the engineering code? I definitely DO NOT want that to happen when I open up the control panel!!! BTW I don't have any means to get up high enough to reach the bell box itself (it's well above the upstairs windows, we have a very steep pitched roof), and given that it went on for over an hour I don't think it will switch itself off! Thanks for your help. Scott
