Astec Alarm (Tamper fault)

    Hi gang
    We have recently installed a new front door and the sensor will no longer fit the new one.

    When I try to set the alarm to bypass the door
    "Zone 1 Tamper" comes up.
    Basically I cannot bypass this "zone" or set the house alarm now. (The wire has been cut at the door)

    How can I bypass this zone?

    I'd be more cencerned at sorting out the problem. The front door is an important part of the system.. You could eliminate from the system by using the 1.5k resistor across the zone to close it off. But this cable problem needs to be sorted in the long term.

    As Koolkid said, your front door is imporant, if i were you i would try and find the cable, shouldnt be to hard to find. But to close of the zone for now you will need 1.5k resistor.
