Strobe Flashing When No Alarm Triggered

Hi,

My Eurosec CPX has been working fine for a number of years but just recently I have returned home to find the strobe flashing on the Gardtec XS3D bell box, but the alarm has not been triggered.  I have looked at the log on each occasion but there is nothing to suggest any fault.  If I completely set then unset the system it then resets the strobe. 

 

My questions is, is this indicating a fault, or is this perhaps a faulty XS3D unit?

 

Many thanks

Steve

Ok, I shall have to investigate further in that case.  I was rather hoping that it may be indicating a specific fault, e.g low battery etc.  Thanks.

The battery hasnt been replaced since installed, which is about 5 years.  I've ordered a new one as I've seen a low battery warning twice now...

we had this once with an odyssey 3 bellbox. the strobe would randomly flash.

turns out that there was a spiders web behind the pcb, and in the wet misty weather, condensation was forming on the web and shorting the 0V to the strb.
