I have Napco alaram with keyboard " Magnum Alert". everyday at 11:00 am the keyboard bip and flushing lights( aremd, baypass and status) and the display show "2" and "3" . (i press the RESET key to stop it every day) Any suggestions to resolve this indication?
Sounds as if the system might be programmed for daily check in to central s tation and it's not getting through. Here's the key. when the three lights are flashing and a #1 shows on the keypad it indicates an AC power loss. Fl ashing lites and a #2 indicates a low battery and a #3 indicates a communic ation failure. ie.1 = A= AC fail/// 2 = B = Battery low /// 3 = C = Communication fail. HOWEVER .... pressing the reset key should only remove the flashing lites a nd numbers temporarily. It should re-appear after a few minutes. Check your phone line going to the alarm panel and to check the battery, close all op en zones. When you have a system ready condition, press and hold key #1. Th e siren should blow for a few seconds and then stop. If the battery is bad the three lights should begin flashing along with a number 2 in the display . Change the battery. If it's followed by showing a #3, it means that the system isn't getting through to central station. Reset the system. Arm it a nd fault a zone. Trip the system, so that the siren sounds. Wait a bit to s ee if central calls. If not check your phone lines.
If you're not connected to central station , apparently your alarm system i s programmed to report to central. If you have access to dealer programming , remove the central station reporting information. If you don't have acces s to programming, you'll have to see if an alarm technician can gain access to programing to deprogram central station reporting. Otherwise you'll hav e to live with the problem.
