Scantronic 9448 Entry Problem

[BJB]

I have a Scantronic 9448 panel which has a PIR working on the entry/exit zone.

 

On exit the sounder bleeps intermittingly, to show the detector is working. However, on entry the sounder doesn't operate at all, therefore if I forget to turn the panel off, it goes in to full alarm on entering another room.

 

Please suggest solution to the problem

You've definitely walk tested the detector on the panel?

On that panel doesn't it beep in exit either way?

[datadiffusion]

Thinking that too

[al-yeti]

Either way it perhaps programmed wrong or wired up wrong

I was assuming an old installation that's suddenly gone wrong, but you never can tell.

 

OP is this a new alarm or an existing one that's worked before?

[BJB]

Thank you for the replies, the system is an old system, which has worked fine.

 

The detector has been walk tested and shows an intermittent tone on exit, which is correct but don't t sound on entry.

 

The wiring has not been touched and has worked fine for two years, so its not a wiring fault.

 

Could a power failure alter the program?

 

I don't believe there is a setting which programs the sounder as silent on  exit/entry.

Just to be clear, when you say it's been walk tested you mean on the panel, not just red light flashing on the PIR?

 

I'll be honest I am a bit stumped. As the panel is so basic I would prob. recommend a factory default and reprog.

Yes the detector has been walk tested on the panel. As you suggested, a reprogram looks like the answer.

 

Thanks again
