Euro mini alarm?

Trouble free for many years until now.

For the last few hours it's been going off "not set" for no apparent reason and rings on and off for 20 mins or so,i'm starting to thing the bad weather is to blame.

Will cleaning off the heavy build up of snow that's settled on the exterior siren "old delta bell" help?,and also,is there a way of shutting it off before the neighbours get more upset?.

Can I simply disconnect the exterior sirens wiring from inside the main box which is in the loft?,

Please help and kind regards to all who respond.

Happy days acorn happy days,

I was 75 in feb mate you can't be that far behind me mate 'joke',also you have nothing to prove to anyone cos we all know you are highly experienced hardened pro.

Clueless go away unless you have something positive to say.

Ok then, the full Galaxy, Menvier, Scantronic, ATS & everything in between ranges. That do you.

ps
You not have exclusive use of direct numbers to manufacturer help desks then, never mind.

Before I forget there are Cos. out there that use the PCX & don't have problems.

Please list the 'perfect control panels', there aren't any. All have had problems of one sort or another. Haven't been around much have you?

The Cos. I've mentioned have all had problems over the years.

Don't bother mentioning the lower end stuff, I've never touched it, other than well before the 9100 (Scantronic, if you don't know) then everything was 'low end' compared to to-days, apart from the Shorrocks panels that is.

PCX 256 is ok?,

Any engineer with only half of brain would know the pcx256 AKA meridian is a load of rubbish.

The RPK,s fail prematurely(buttons),the panel is slow in response and the engineering (nightmare).

The engineering manual is inaccurate and contains several conflicting points which has caught even the most experienced engineer out.

And god help you if you try to get through to pyronix tech (hope you enjoy the sound of the dialing tone).you're straight through to castle.

Sounds like acorn is an g3/4 man and knows nothing about the higher end multiple zoned panels.

Ps I don't take being bested by you or anyone else who doesn't know what he is talking about.

Pps don't let my tag (clueless) fool you!,I can assure you and all that i'am not.

errr pyronix ar'nt the best panel in the world and just because it isn't showing battery status doesn't mean the battery is good.

Ignore this clueless and change the battery as suggested by acorn, mains off first before you attempt the replacement :)

Take no notice of acorn he obviously now's nothing about the cct euro,

If it were a battery fault then it would say so!

Get someone to check the sounder and it's wiring.

Just replace the BATTERY, that's all the problem is.

Rechargeable batts. do not last forever, as you have just found.

The search box at the top of the page would have found the answer even quicker!
