Fire Alarm Fault

[malcolm]

I've got a wired Gent industrial fire alarm system installed 2011ish. Looks like this. I had some electricians in a couple of years ago and they removed and then replaced a couple of sensors and sounders so I could get some plastering done. Since then I've been getting the fault light pop up and the annoying beeping noise. Happening more regularly now.

Had a peep at the bits the electricians touched and can't see a problem. Connections all tight and everything seems screwed on properly.

Right now been burned to death is considered much safer than catching a cold. Anyone have an idea how to fault find?

What fault lights?

What is the green power light doing?

 

[malcolm]

The only light that comes on is the one at the top that says 'fault'. Power light is OK

Hold on - Zone 1 light came on too. I think that is downstairs.

Disconnect various downstairs sensers, until the fault light goes off, then you've found the problem?

Mr @The_Yellow_Ardvark probably more competent than me....

He'll be sending you pm's by now with dubious you tube links....

Some panels show a fault light if the backup batteries have a bad connection

On the gent The Power light would flash.

Yep

I asked about a problem and he sent me various links
