Scantronic 9448 Internal Sounder Volume

[melv]

Hi. Have just moved into a house with a Scantronic 9448 already installed. My only problem with the system is that the keypad and entry/exit tones are a little loud and the tone is very penetrating. I live in a terraced house and this problem means that I am conscious of annoying my neighbours when I set or disarm the alarm late at night. Can I turn down the volume of the internal sounder so that these tones are not as loud? Or can I get an approved engineer to do it for me? Many thanks.

not a big job obviously,

your best bet is have an engineer come in, service, test, reset the codes and fine tune your system to your needs.

prices vary, so ring a few local NSI or SSAIB approved companies, one big and a couple of smaller ones and get quotes before you engage anyone.

they most likely will want to set up a service and maintenance agreement, this is no bad thing as it will give to access to a 24 hour service for faults and your system is checked every year (well should be ), but beware if you use the call out service especially out of hours you may be charged on top as the cost is usually for the availability of the service - not the use of it (unlike your Gas Boiler insurance), so again be sure of these charge rates before you sign up to save arguments later .

I`ll do it - and we cover the labour cost of the callout too ( but not if it`s your fault, or the cost of the equipment )
