Intermittent chiming from control panel when alarm is not set?

Does anyone know why the chiming sound happens when the alarm is NOT set? I enter pass code and the number 6 appears in the zone area. I press reset and all is well until the next time the same thing happens. This can be 2 hours later or any length of time for that matter. Most annoying and puzzling as zone 6 is not configured in the alarm circuits.

I've got a good friend called big Al,wears a blue or White hard hat with BIG AL written on it regardless of where he's working, and he not give a shit about site rules.

If he not like the site managers or they say he can't wear his rigger boots he slings his hook lol.

Tell you sumthing if you saw him you wouldn't argue with him either :)

Sounds like an intermittent bell box tamper.

Does the tamper light come on along with the "b" then clear when you put your code in?.
