meatpie48 Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Can somebody please help me. I have just moved into a new house where an old woman used to live. She has had a Scantronic 9448+ Alarm fitted with panic buttons in bedrooms & sensors all over the house. The house is due to be re-wired on Monday & going on former experience in the Building Services industry I'm sure there is a battery back-up which will come into effect as soon as power is cut off. There is no maintenance contract on this unit & I can't afford to have a company come out & charge through the nose to turn the thing off for me. Please can someone tell me if it is possible to completely shutdown the panel & bell to avoid constant alarms whilst the house is being rewired. Many many thanks
Chorlton Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Yes it is possible Although we cannot tell anyone how to disable an/their intruder alarm on here (a publically viewable forum) for obvious reasons. I'm not sure what you believe "through the nose" to be but I'd try a phone round companies local to you and asking for quotes before any drastic smashing & bashing starts. C.
meatpie48 Posted June 20, 2008 Author Posted June 20, 2008 Paying anything is "through the nose" to me! In all honesty it is only temporary & I don't want to have to pay twice for it to decommissioned & then for it to be repowered. Is there anything you can suggest on a private email for me to do?
Chorlton Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 No. You could be Mr B Burglar or a 12 yr old girl from Denmark for all we know. C.
meatpie48 Posted June 20, 2008 Author Posted June 20, 2008 I'm a bloke who's trying to re-wire his house with 2 toddlers running around trying to press all the panic buttons. If I was a 12 year old girl from denmark, I doubt I'd be in this forum, I'd probably be being groomed in MSN. And although I may have had a dodgy past I am certainly not a burgular.
Chorlton Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Thats what they say on MSN, lol. Seriously though, sorry we can't help. There are batteries in place (note: plural) so if you do have a go at it make sure you have all the mains power is off and be careful as batteries & circuit boards can still give you a nasty shock. Good luck! C.
james.wilson Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Agreed, you will need an engineer to do this for you. We cannot and will not advise how to do this on a public forum. securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
