Eurosec Alarm System - siren / wiring issues

Id say every 5 years is fine. Better to replace before panels report it to prevent damage but modern panels seem to do better with failed battery's than the old dumb stuff

Erm you said you thought the optima was a very good reliable panel

It is, assuming its serviced. But if not it can destroy the charging circuit. Same as saying jcb's arnt very good if they are never serviced

Forgot to mention the blue was stripped back as though it should be terminated somewhere.

 

Thanks for the replies so far.

Going to try this 

 

Troubleshooting  :

External Sounder does not sound

 

Action :

 

Use a multimeter or small buzzer across the

Bell +&- terminals to determine if the control

panel is triggering the bell. If all is O.K check

the operation of the sounder by wiring it to the

system battery.

Bell test works and system sets okay

Another house maybe? Or you meant internal bell

[Sideshow]

Yes the external Bell test worked, but the original fault is still apparent that if the system is triggered the external alarm does not sound.

 

 

 

 

 

 

[james.wilson]

thats not a wiring issue then, maybe programming, how are you testing it, ie what are you doing to cause a full alarm. What happened when you did the bell test?

[Sideshow]

To do the Bell Test i entered the User code and pressed 9, as per the Eurosec User manual page 19.

The bell test worked.

 

Not sure what else it could be? is it worth resetting the whole system if this is possible?

[james.wilson]

When you did the bell test did you check the external bell or stay by the keypad and heard the internal bell?
