Optima 2 plus fault

[Guest 2202]

My Optima 2 has suddenly developed a fault on zone 1...front door contact and keeps on bleeping when the door opens. The figure 1 appears on the panel but can be dismissed by a reset. However when the door is opened again the bleep is triggered again and we are back to the cycle start again.

Any Ideas

It's not a fault, it's the 'chime' function.

Press CHIME, 0.

Instructions for you too.

You have enabled the CHIME feature:

TO CHIME A ZONE

The Day indicator should be showing. Press the CHIME button, the Day indicator will go off. Enter the

zone number(s), which you require to be chimed, or if you wish to cancel a previous selection enter 0.

The system will automatically return to Day after a few seconds. When any zone chosen to be chimed is opened or closed the sounder will produce a series of tones and indicate the zone number Press RESET to remove this indication. To cancel a chime selection, press CHIME and enter 0. The system will return to Day after a few seconds.

Many thanks.

It appears to have worked.

The pdf has been archived away.

A number of electrical items in the house appear to behaving unusually since a nearby lightning strike.

Need more info. What do you mean by activate? do you mean set? if so, go check what device is on zone 3. its causing the problem. are there any other L.E.D's on that are not usually?

once you establish what is on zone 3 make sure it has not been touched, moved(decorators, carpet fitters), opened(is the device on a door/window?), pressed(panic button).

Had any workmen in, done any decorating, nosey grandchildren, burglars?

Doesn't that mean a fault or alarm on Zone 3?

What does your user manual say (remember there may be different types/patterns of beeps)?

What type of sensor is zone 3?

My money is on a flush contact on the back door where a new door has been fitted.
