veritas r8plus help!!!!?

alarm went off early this morning. Nothing stopped it....entered code etc and nothing worked.

Now unset and tamper lights are on. Zone 2 flashing and Zone 3 light on. Enter code to reset and each number enters keypad makes flat beep sound........

Took cover off box in loft and battery is dated August 03 so needs changing but how do I get my alarm to work????

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the help.......changed battery and all is good again......the power cut obviously sey off the alarm and at least it made me realise that the battery was dead and needed change........warning headed and I will make sure to change it after the relevant period of time in the future

The unset light means that you successfully reset the panel, the tamper light is because you removed the lid in loft z2 & Z3 lights indicate that it was zone 3 that caused the alarm and I guess that Z2 flashing tells you its a chime zone. try pressing reset twice and then enter code and wait to see if it sets

Death - thanks for the reply.....the unset light is on continuously on the keypad but will follow the advice you have given and let you know how it works out.......any ideas why my code is not working on the keypad out of interest?

yep you have answerd your own question change the battery and if it works great but i do know this for a fact if the unset light is countinusely flashing then in the big main panel look where the mains supply is fitted and remove the black pull out fuse and see if it has gone if it has in the panel theres normally spair fuses so replace it if it has gone

remember still change the battery

get back to me if it works well
