Hi, unfortunately some buttons were punched on our alarm system in error and now when we go passed some sensors in the house, the system beeps. Have had a "google" search and checked our manual, but it doesn't seem to show a fix. Looks like a hardware reset may work?, but not something I could do. Any thoughts or is it off to an alarm installer?

Cheers

This is the manual https://cms.dsc.com/media/documents/User_Manuals/PC585_User_Manual_ENG_29005154R003.pdf

Check if the chime mode has been activated refer page 5 & 15.

Hope this helps.

Thanks. Unfortunately mine is not an LED or LCD display which the manual on pages 5 & 15 seem to relate to.

Hi there - that should not matter.

Page 10 under Functions keys discusses this capability with reference to your key pad PC1555RKZ

I had this keypad in a previous house and the page 15 instructions to enable the feature "* [4]" worked.

This quick guide could be helpful too https://cms.dsc.com/download2.php?t=1&id=14219

All fixed thanks. Even though we do not have a chime function on the alarm, I cancelled the chime function and the beeps no longer occur. Thanks for all your help.
