I disconnected my mains electricty to conduct some minor works, but this set my Veritas 8 alarm off, presumably on back-up battery, but I couldn't switch the alarm off with entering codes until I switched the mains back on and reset. Does anyone know how to stop the ringing if the mains goes off ie what if there was a power failure?
Thanks
