Hi the house alarm is showing tamper,zone 6 got 2 sensors 1 in kitchen, 1 in living room can u help it wont reset cheers

Just guessing but the problem when you opened the case to change the battery. That tripped the tamper alarm. On my system it is part of the BIOS and I need to go in to the BIOS to reset it and or turn it off. These links may help:

0176 Security The system has been tampered with

Hi Terry,
Most alarm systems require you to reset the tamper alarm.
Most systems will reset the tamper simply by arming the system and then immediately disarming the system. However, you MUST make sure that the Tamper circuit you tripped is closed. If you removed the cover on the panel, make sure the tamper switch for the cover is in the correct position and that the cover is pressing the switch and closing its contacts. If you are trying to arm the panel with a cover off, the tamper circuit will not reset unless you defeat the tamper switch. Just make sure you remove the defeat when you replace the cover. You may also wish to try a google search on the type and model of panel you have so you can download a copy of the manual to check on the reset procedure. We also need to know what brand and model the panel is so we can help you further..

Line failure is related to power not phone line. What is the exact model number?

negative all os&y should be on their own zone. they are programmed differently. A panel tamper is just a tamper alarm supervisory alarm.

An "alarm Memory" indicates that a zone was activated the last time the system was armed. To view what zone caused the problem press the * key (star) + the 3 key. To reset the memory simply arm the system and disarm. Hope this helps.

Is the "chime" feature enable for that device?
