veritas 8 goes off when mains power goes off?

does this mean battery is dead (20 years old).There is no low battery indication or bleeping.Do I need any special engineers code if opening the box sets off the alarm?

Yr 20, you should be on, at least, your 5th battery.

Just because they are rechargeable, it doesn't mean they last forever.

That is only a guide, might need replacing sooner than every 5yrs (BUT, no longer)

Change it using your code, just remember there is a mains supply inside the control panel.

p.s.

Search, top right of every page would have found this question asked / answered dozens of times.
