Scantronics 9427 Power LED flashing (main 9448+ control panel shows solid green however)

[GregTK]

Hi All,

 

Further to a previous post I managed to solve my alarm-related problems and reconfigure the system... however the Scantronics 9427 remote keypad keeps showing a green flashing Power LED. Rather baffling since the main 9448+ control panel shows solid green and everything is working perfectly??

 

However, when I put the alarm in Engineer/Programming Mode, then the Power LED does go solid green.

 

Any ideas what might cause this behaviour?

 

Many thanks in advance for your feedback.

It's telling you to install a 9651...

 

The 9448 really is very old hat. With the 9651 you'll get a text LCD display, be able to use fobs, but it's just as easy to use.

Also the terminology and tones are the same so a nice bit of familiarity... All for the price of McDonalds for four...

Hi 'Data'

 

OK then... that sounds like a plan indeed. An LCD screen would definitely help and fobs are definitely a nice to have feature :-)

 

And I guess I would be able to keep the existing cabling? 

 

Many thanks

Yes, entirely.

Cool... that would be a nice little project and would get my hard-wired alarm in the 21st Century... thanks for the tip :-)

 

(about £** is really not expensive indeed)
