Alarm beeping every 30 secs?

You may want to check your battery. It sounds like a low battery warning.

Since GE bought that company, here is their take on it.

"This product is obsolete and no longer available for purchase."

GE knows how to take care of its customers wouldn't you say?

For the record it might be a low battery or similar supervisory signal alert.

in addition to what the others have replied.

IF the chirping is really really high frequency and seems difficult to tell where it's coming from it may be your electrician (120 vac) smoke detectors and not the alarm system. Usually, the alarm warnings come from the keypads themselves, so you should be able to listen at the keypad.

Electric smokes (120 vac) have batteries that should be changed every year...usually 9v - use the good ones, not the cheapos.

This looks like the NetworX manual..

found by googling for NetworX alarm user guide "low battery"

smoke detectors do that.

Ya think? js

You probably have a transmitter low battery. js

Well I doubt they'd say that since its a current product

When a customer calls me with that description I usually tell them that it is probably the electrician installed smoke detectors (after I ask them if the keypad shows low bat).

They usually say they know for sure that sound is coming from keypad or siren.

I always explain that a service call will be charged if it turns out to bes an electrical problem and not an alarm problem, even if system is under warrantee.

4 out of 5 people will ask me to come anyway and 4 out of 5 times it is the electrician installed smoke detectormaking the noise.

The beep from that electrician installed smoke detector bounces all over the place. Hard to find too.

YEP YEP YEP. And then when you go out there they feel like total idiots and don't want to pay for the call.

It's like the lotto. When the technician shows up, everyone gets a ticket. And every ticket pays!

Service requests and complaints reported by customers, especially ones associated with warning sounders, seldom have anything directly to do with what is ultimately found to be the real problem by the servicing technician.
