Astec Alarm internal bell s30

Might have a few old ones lying around. There was very rarely an issue with them. What faults are you getting?

Its my uncles alarm and it keeps going off randomly even if the alarm is not set. My brother checked the log and he said it was showing a sounder fault, there is only 2 bells 1 inside and 1 outside. He did the bell test and the internal bell would not ring, the external one rang fine ( outside bell box is a hkc running off an s22 module). My uncle also said the first time this fault happened the internal bell was making a hiccuping noise. So I think it’s the internal bell what do you think?

Is it an Astec fusion by any chance?
Older Astec should say Bell Fault or SAB Fault?

Its an astec 63dv panel. I asked my brother what it said in the log and he said it had 3 bell faults and 2 sab faults! I can only think that the faulty internal bell is bringing down the sounder bus. Either way the internal sounder isn’t working so i will replace that first, that’s if i can get my hands on one.

It might also be the other way round.
I would try connect the internal on its own first then vice versa.

Good idea thanks. You mentioned you might have a few of the internal sounders lying about, would you sell one if you have it?

I’ve sent you a PM
