danieljoe Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 Last saturday night our alarm started playing up when backup battery started running out after a 24hr pwr cut. when on the phone to an engineer (at 3am), we had to stop the noises the bell box was making. eventually, all cables were taken out of the bell box (yes the alarm was blaring in my ears at 3am). after having power restored to the house, alarm can now go back online however i need to know how to re-wire the bell box to the rest of the system as i didnt take note of which cables came out of what terminal on the control panel there are 6 cables to bell box. T - blue A - yellow D - red and white B - black strobe (minus) - green - (nothing in plus) on the Sigma bell box, there are: Siren Trigger Strobe Trigger A/T Return -ve (hold off supply) +ve (hold off supply) +ve (battery) -ve (battery Spare If anyone can help in advising which cables go where i would be greatly appreciated. Also, will my system need to be reprogrammed after having no power for a few days? Thanks, Dan
hpotter Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 Blue - A/T return Yellow - -ve hold off Red/white - +ve hold off Black - siren trigger Green - Strobe trigger Shouldnt need re-programming, info held in non volatile memory. Hope that helps

Might be worth you getting in touch with a local firm who can cover you e.g. if power cut had happened when your on hols. Might not be as expensive as you think. Just a thought.
