Big Problem with Aritech CS257

    Hello,

    i got a big problem with a aritech cs257. 
    i works for at least 15 years, and a week ago it shows tamper errors on all lines. the control panel is not the problem. i already checked it. 
    if i delete all the errors , it says everything is ok. after arm the station everything is fine. but when i disarm it, it shows tamper errors on all lines again. the wiring was not changed and nothing was changed at all. 
    i'm not sure what is the cause of this. there was a fault 3 years ago and an engineer changed the main control panel because he thought it is damaged. then all the tamper error arrives on the new control panel, so i put in back the old panel, and everything works for 3 years. but now there are all these tamper errors again. 
    i will change the whole system to a new one, but i need the old one for a few weeks for safety reasons. so i have to get it work again.

    Would there be any phone line connected to this panel by any chance?

    Okay, seems that i get it working again. Problem was, that when i program over the control unit cs5xxx the panel sets itself to factory after the programming was complete. and then the double eol was enabled in the zones. 

    only problem for now is, that the box does not call.
