ADAM90 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Hi Guys I've done a self install but suddenly out of nowhere got an internal alarm going off The completed alarm has only been fully set up for 2-3 days Ive a sneaky feeling its the external alarm box tamper thats maybe dodgy? It says Auxiliary Tamper, I checked all my Ricochet Mesh Technology Items, Keypad, PIR ETC No issues came up can anyone tell me if my wiring looks OK please?

sixwheeledbeast Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 So you have it wired as a Grade 3 bellbox and it's maybe failed one of the G3 self tests I'd guess? Assuming you have everything wired and programmed correctly on a Premier panel that is.

G3 is a difficult one to get right for seasoned pro's. Anyone that really needs G3 would have it installed professionally, its usually an insurance requirement, or in our case an MOD site. If you're going down the DIY route its likely that the type of burglar your likely to get is unlikely to be able to circumvent a G1 system.

MrHappy Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 looks poorly terminated... I fix them with two x 3x10 & one x 2x10 screws A tamper fault is most likely to be the small machine screw needing releasing to make a good contact.

Resistor missing Back plate screw is my bet if it has one Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/47082-aux-tamper-texecom-alert-sudenly-after-a-few-days-after-the-install-texecom-odyssey-3/#findComment-527286 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADAM90 Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 Thanks for the replys but is there anyway i can prevent this? Whats the best thing to do i working on it now? IS the AUX Fault for the bell box for sure? Is it a bad tamper switch? or my wiring wrong?

ADAM90 Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 Does anyone know the settings for it? in the setting up? the way its wired? Im releasing the small plastic cover tamper screw so should press against the switch better and tidying up the wires as i put a nought in the outer sheath!
