Mend Bell & Strobe Veritas 8C Working Alarm

Bell &Strobe, Vertias 8C?

Systerm is working, but the external Bell & Strobe
are not working, have tested by triggering the alarm.
The Bell I think has been deactavated by means
of the keyboard, ie, canceled. How is it reactavted
using the keyboard..

Well how did you test the bell?

How can the bell be disabled from the keypad?

The whole point of an alarm is that the bell RINGS when activated.
So, is the panel fuse blown. Or the bell broken?

But it is deffo not disabled from the keyPAD
Might have a bell delay though, want to try that?
Or did you try and trip the alarm in part set mode, then it is internal sounders only on the C.

Could go on, but you seem to know the answer :D

Oh dear Roger, We are the best alarm engineers in the UK, and you question one of us, I would start off with the on board fuse, and not by looking at it, We all use a process of elimination, untill we find the reason. Risco's bell boxes will not go into alarm unless the tampers are closed, but you would know they are closed N/C because you would have 13.6 on tamper return, if you are able to reset your alarm back to day, then there is no tamper fault, Guess what Roger you may have even wired it wrong.
My advice to you Roger is dont question the very best engineers in the country because we do find it offensive. Your alarm by the way is a very poor excuse for a control panel made by Texecom. Texecom are are a bit like what Skoda used to be for cars. Cheap and nasty. Scantronic or Honeywell Galaxy is where you should be. Mind you i think the resistors would scare you, 1k-1k or 2k2 4k7 Oh dear Roger have we lost you on the basic's.
Good luck
