Alarm bellbox

[AlexGoode]

I have posted another thread a while ago about a burglar alarm but unfortunately still don't have it sorted- did leave it for a while so the point is, i have a Honeywell Ag6 Bellbox to an Accenta mini G4 panel but it doesn't seem to stop sounding when i type the code in on the keypad. my wiring (which is right as far as i know) is as follows:

Panel Bellbox
T TR- (negative tamper return)
B S- (negative sounder trigger)
D V+ (positive voltage)
A V- (negative voltage)
Strobe- ST- (negative strobe trigger)

A reply would be helpful as i am starting to run out of ideas of why it wont work. Cheers

Check continuity from bell box on wires (T&A) at G4 panel. If ok, when you link out T & A at panel and close all back up will it reset?

 

[AlexGoode]

there is a link between t and a but the only way the sounder seems to stop is when i switch the power off- haven't got the battery linked up

 

[AlexGoode]

am going to triple check all my wiring as i have checked it all twice already

 

[AlexGoode]

also, i have 6 pir's so is there an easier way for terminating the positive and negative voltage in the panel as they only just fit into the one terminal and i wouldn't be satisfied with leaving it like that

double check you don't have V- and Trigger - switched around.

 

[AlexGoode]

no, the wiring seemed ok, i want to try and get it sorted and finished by the end of the bank holiday

Twist them together, cut to length and terminate together like you have, that is fine. You could run a fly lead to a connector strip if you'd rather.

You sure someone hasn't changed the code

 

[AlexGoode]

think it would be better, it is just that they wont fit in unless i cut them short and then when i do that, they pop out easily, can i use abit of alarm cable, considering the current for all 6 pir's?

 

[AlexGoode]

no, i done a factory reset also

don't think current will be an issue for such a short length however twisting and putting them together is how it is designed to be. Twist them tight, clean cut and they go in real nice .

 

[AlexGoode]

yes, the code is right- i cant get to the panel as it goes of as soon as i turn the panel on so my dad puts the code in

What zone code is coming up .... get your dad to note it down. Could be a fault on another zone ... spider near detector for example.

Cables should not cause you a problem
