Scantronic i-on 16 wireless siren problem?

I have installed an i-on 16 system and all is working well apart from the 760es wireless sounder which comes up with a fault code of "superv fail" every day or so. I have deleted it and reinstalled it on the system and the signal strength is 7 out of 9. it works when tested but then sometime later the fault ocurrs.There are no electric cables or metal objects near the sounder.
Ideas ?

one more thing check the battery pack,had one that was duff ,do as e manno sugg,what we do is prog the system prior to fitting make sure all units talk to panel saves lots o time in the field ,hope you get it sorted mate

and they overpriced ,expensive battery unit to replace £24.99 plus vat,no my friend fit a hard wired bell box the panel is excellent

Sig strength is good but there's a good chance that radio interference is causing your loss of supervision.

As gts said relocate the sounder or I'd bring the sounder indoors and place it near the panel with rear tamper closed then run it to see if you still get the supervision fault.

Least then you will know if it's interference or hardware fault.

Just an idea but you defo better off with an hardwired sounder if possible.

re po the siren ,could be insulation prob,some plaster boards have a foil back on them,this will cut the signal down,i on panels are very good,though am not a fan of the scanny wireless bell box,not loud enough and looks very cheap,better to fit a wired bell box if you can
