Guest edd Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 We have a scantronic 9800 which when the main fuse to the house was turned off the alarm went off & LB was displayed we had to refresh the chip to get back to E mode but then we lost the keypad it went dead no green power light. do you think it can be fixed or is it better to go for an upgade for the 9800. Regards Ed

Power down for 20 secs with battery disconected. Apply ac or 12v from a fully charged battery. Then add ac or battery. Put code in see if its not justed crashed on power up!

norman Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 Hello Edd, It sounds as though your battery is u/s. Get someone out to check the system and more importantly the charging circuit, as this can become damaged trying to support a poor battery. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.
CompostCORNER Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 Stab in the dark here but doesn't the old 9800 lock up if it's down powered and re-powered up and it has a plug on communicator? It will power up without the communicator fitted but to have the communicator back in service and on the panel, you'll need the services of an engineer to ensure it is done safely.
Guest edd Posted November 21, 2005 Posted November 21, 2005 Changed battery still no green power light, keypad makes a sound when keys are pressed but no display, and there is output from transformer.
Guest edd Posted November 21, 2005 Posted November 21, 2005 what i did was to turn of power supply to panel opened panel disconnected battery for about 20 seconds re connected battery closed panel turned power supply back on
