Sounder Self Activating

I have recently installed a wired alarm system within my home. I have bought an inexpensive ADE Optima G3 Compact controller (with compatable RKP), Texecom PIR's & a Texecom Bell Box (SCB).

I tested the system upon installation inline with the ADE test process charts and everything was clear. After test I programmed the system for a 20 second door entry requirement. That's it. There were no problems for several days of use.

Yesterday my wife returned home to find the alarm had gone off. On entry to our home she observed that on entering the user code the sytem started to activate, from this I can only deduce that the sounder had activated by it's own accord. Was the system in some kind of lockdown or now operating independently to the controller? It may be a silly one, but then again! Thanks in advance.

Think you might find that the system had been activated why she was out and when she got back the system was simply telling her of the fact it had been activated and thus required her to acknowledge the alarm.

Without full inofrmation it would be very dificult to diagnose the true problem, if indeed there is one.

Thanks for the quick response.

She has input the user code with no effect. When I spoke to her on the phone there was no way to stop the bell box alarm going off. Interesting that the internal sounders were not going off.

This may shed further light on any problem.
