hkc sw-1070 alarm batteries warning

    Hello there,
    We are getting a warning on our alarm keypad control panel saying:
    "RF Low Battery" and "sb1 sabb1".

    We have replaced the batteries in all the PIR and contact sensors on doors/windows. However we continue to get the fault which seems weird.
    Any ideas what we are missing? Is there any way to get more info from the control panel.
    We have the engineering code for the service menu if that helps, but can't seem to see anything obvious under that.
    Any thoughts,
    Thanks...

    Ok, see now that SABBis the bell box outside, will try changing the batteries for that.

    Out of curiosity, how long should the sabb and pir/sensor batteries last roughly?

    In general 3 years but the sounder batteries will vary according to how often the system activates.

    SABB batteries should last 3 years, if you have the LEDs activated with the extra battery supply for these up to 32 Months.
